Progressive collapse analysis of reinforced concrete in buildings L-shaped plan [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2018 One of the most important issues discussed structural passive defense is progressive collapse. Progressive collapse occurs the sudden destruction caused by the deliberate structural member by accidents or disasters, such as earthquakes and terrorist ...

High-sensitivity plasmonic refractive index sensing using graphene
, 2017 We theoretically demonstrate a high-sensitivity, graphene-plasmon based refractive index sensor working in the mid-infrared at room temperature. The bulk figure of merit of our sensor reaches values above $10$, but the key aspect of our proposed ...

Fano-resonance-based refractive index sensor with ultra-high sensitivity
Results in Physics, 2021 In this paper, we propose a Fano-resonance-based refractive index sensor with ultra-high sensitivity. The sensor comprises a metal–insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide with two rectangular stubs coupled with a circular resonator embedded with a defective ...

Highly sensitive refractometer with photonic crystal fiber long-period grating
, 2007 We present highly sensitive refractometers based on a long-period grating in a large mode area PCF. The maximum sensitivity is 1500 nm/RIU at a refractive index of 1.33, the highest reported for any fiber grating.

Highly sensitive fiber Bragg grating refractive index sensors [PDF]
, 2005 We combine fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology with a wet chemical etch-erosion procedure and demonstrate two types of refractive index sensors using single-mode optical fibers. The first index sensor device is an etch-eroded single FBG with a radius of

Control vector parameterization with sensitivity based refinement applied to baking optimization [PDF]
, 2007 In bakery production, product quality attributes as crispness, brownness, crumb and water content are developed by the transformations that occur during baking and which are initiated by heating. A quality driven procedure requires process optimization

Metamaterial absorber integrated microfluidic terahertz sensors [PDF]
, 2016 Spatial overlap between the electromagnetic fields and the analytes is a key factor for strong light-matter interaction leading to high sensitivity for label-free refractive index sensing. Usually, the overlap and therefore the sensitivity are limited by
