In this study, the effects of beam diameter and hatch spacing between the scanning paths on the bendability and microstructural behavior of an AISI 316 stainless-steel sheet in three-dimensional laser forming were investigated. The strain on the heat...

Industrial augmented reality (AR) applications demand high on the visual consistency of virtual-real registration. To present, the marker-based registration method is most popular because it is fast, robust, and convenient to obtain the registration...

The periodic impulse characteristics caused by rolling bearing damage are weak in the incipient failure stage. Thus, these characteristics are always drowned out by background noise and other harmonic interference. A novel approach based on multi-res...

Using remote sensing images of different time phases from 1990 to 2018, the surface coverage information of northern Yantai (coastline, 2 km from coastline to land) was extracted by means of average high tide line and visual interpretation. The end p...

In carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) projects, the transportation of CO2 by ship can be an attractive alternative to transportation using a pipeline, particularly when the distance between the source and usage or storage location is large...

In this paper, a method of color discrimination based on sample sensitivity to light wavelength is proposed based on the reflection spectra of a large number of samples and the statistical calculation of the measurement data. A laser detection system...

The number of cable-stayed bridges being built worldwide has been increasing owing to the increasing demand for long-span bridges. As the stay-cable is one of critical load-carrying members of cable-stayed bridges, its maintenance has become a signif...

The rapid proliferation of the Internet has been driving communication networks closer and closer to their limits, while available bandwidth is disappearing due to ever-increasing network loads [...]

Despite the fact that a 2-degree spectral sensitivity curve (SSC) is extensively used in scientific research and relevant applications, the choice between the 10-degree or the 2-degree photopic SSCs in practical applications for the calculation of sc...

Simultaneous outbreaks of contagion are a great threat against human life, resulting in great panic in society. It is urgent for us to find an efficient multiple sources localization method with the aim of studying its pathogenic mechanism and minimi...
