Road geometry estimation and vehicle tracking using a single track model
2008 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium, 2008 This paper is concerned with the, by now rather well studied, problem of integrated road geometry estimation and vehicle tracking. The main differences to the existing approaches are that we make use of an improved host vehicle model and a new dynamic model for the road.

On the use of off-nadir pointing for increased temporal resolution of Earth observing satellite systems [PDF]
The change in radiance expected at a satellite in a LANDSAT type orbit by pointing the sensor across track was examined with simulated data. The simulation incorporated the bidirectional reflectance distribution function of a spherical geometry grass ...

Black-hole horizons as probes of black-hole dynamics I: post-merger recoil in head-on collisions
, 2012 The understanding of strong-field dynamics near black-hole horizons is a long-standing and challenging prob- lem in general relativity. Recent advances in numerical relativity and in the geometric characterization of black- hole horizons open new avenues

MOFs and COFs in Electronics: Bridging the Gap between Intrinsic Properties and Measured Performance
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold promise for advanced electronics. However, discrepancies in reported electrical conductivities highlight the importance of measurement methodologies. This review explores intrinsic charge transport mechanisms and extrinsic factors influencing performance, and critically ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We introduce a nucleic acid nanoparticle (NANP) platform designed to be rrecognized by the human innate immune system in a regulated manner. By changing chemical composition while maintaining constant architectural parameters, we identify key determinants of immunorecognition enabling the rational design of NANPs with tunable immune activation profiles
