Localization using signal strength

Proceedings of the first ACM international workshop on Mobile entity localization and tracking in GPS-less environments, 2008
Received Signal Strength (RSS) data collected within a wireless network can be used to obtain either range estimates or connectivity information. Both approaches lead to localization schemes that require no additional hardware. It is not clear, however, when a range-based scheme should be used in favor of a connectivity-based one.

Strength modeling using Weibull distributions

Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology, 2008
The two-parameter Weibull distribution is the most popular model for material strength. However, it may not be a good model for all materials over a wide range of sizes. In this note, a comprehensive review of the known variations of the two-parameter Weibull distribution is provided to help providing better modeling.

An Approach to Seam Strength Prediction Using Residual Thread Strength

Research Journal of Textile and Apparel, 2011
Owing to a high amount of stress, seam failure in workwear fabrics makes the fabric unsuitable although the fabric strength is high. It is therefore important to predict the seam strength to ascertain the performance of the garments during use and determine the required thread strength and stitch density to match the required seam strength.
