Reconfigurable swarm robots for structural health monitoring: a brief review
(
Springer
, 2017 , Article)
Autonomous monitoring of infrastructure systems offers a promising alternative to manual inspection techniques which are mostly tedious, expensive and prone to error. Robot-based autonomous monitoring systems not only ...
Wideband radar based fall motion detection for a generic elderly
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Radar-based automated fall detection systems are considered as an important and emerging technology for elderly assisted living. These radar systems provide non-intrusive sensing capabilities to detect fall events. Various ...
Collapse behavior of thin-walled corrugated tapered tubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Thin-walled structures have been widely used in energy absorption and safety applications such as automotive, due to their lightweight and progressive folding modes. This work studies the collapse behavior and energy ...
Structural properties, crystal quality and growth modes of MOCVD-grown AlN with TMAl pretreatment of sapphire substrate
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Article)
The growth of high quality AlN epitaxial films relies on precise control of the initial growth stages. In this work, we examined the influence of the trimethylaluminum (TMAl) pretreatment of sapphire substrates on the ...
Vertical zonation and functional diversity of fish assemblages revealed by ROV videos at oil platforms in The Gulf
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
An assessment of vertical distribution, diel migration, taxonomic and functional diversity of fishes was carried out at offshore platforms in The (Arabian-Iranian-Persian) Gulf. Video footage was recorded at the Al Shaheen ...
Edge guided total variation for image denoising
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present a novel denoising algorithm based on the Rodin-Osher-Fatemi (ROF) model. The goal is to ensure maximum noise removal while preserving image details. To achieve this goal, we developed a new edge ...

Total temporomandibular joint replacement prostheses: a systematic review and bias-adjusted meta-analysis
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
The aim of the present study was to determine which prosthesis has resulted in the best outcomes after total temporomandibular joint replacement (TMJR). A comprehensive electronic search was undertaken in September 2015. ...
A Bayesian Approach for LPV Model Identification and Its Application to Complex Processes
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
Obtaining mathematical models that can accurately describe nonlinear dynamics of complex processes and be further used for model-based control design is a challenging task. In this brief, a Bayesian approach is introduced ...
Mapping the Industrial Perception of Delay Data Through Importance Rating
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The construction industry is struggling with several recorded incidents of delay due to improper planning and/or implementation of required construction measures. The common conclusion by many researchers worldwide is that ...
