It is difficult to recover the motion field from a real-world footage given a mixture of camera shake and other photometric effects. In this paper we propose a hybrid framework by interleaving a Convolutional Neural Network...

Amongst many other high performance flow control applications, servo valves are used to control aero engines by metering the fuel delivered from the fuel pump. Conventionally, a fuel metering servo valve has a pilot stage...

Redirected Walking (RDW) algorithms aim to impose several types of gains on users immersed in Virtual Reality and distort their walking paths in the real world, thus enabling them to explore a larger space. Since collision...

Existing decoupled energy and carbon trading market leads to an inefficient and suboptimal operation of the distribution networks regarding economic interests and emission reduction. Corresponding to these issues, this paper...

This paper presents a detailed modelling and experimental study of the piezoelectric and dielectric properties of novel ferroelectric sandwich layer BaTiO₃ structures that consist of an inner porous layer and dense...

A few-shot learning model generally consists of a feature extraction network and a classification module. In this paper, we propose an approach to improve few-shot image classification performance by increasing the...

There is an increasing desire to monitor and control hydraulic systems in an autonomous and battery-free manner. One solution to this challenge is to harvest hydraulic pressure ripples and noise by exploiting the...

In recent years, the growing interest of aerospace companies in wireless structural health monitoring (SHM) systems has led to the research of new energy efficient sources and power harvesting solutions. Among available...

Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) have limited dynamic load capacity due to magnetic saturation. Hence, large external disturbances (such as shock loads) may cause contact between the rotor and touchdown bearings (TDBs), which...

Statistical inverse learning theory, a field that lies at the intersection of inverse problems and statistical learning, has lately gained more and more attention. In an effort to steer this interplay more towards the...

One of the weaknesses of nonlinear methods is the excitation power required to generate nonlinear effects such as higher order harmonics (single frequency) and sidebands (dual excitation). In conjunction with the high-power...

In this paper we examine the modal response of a bistable electro-mechanical energy harvesting device based on characterization of the experimental time-series. A piezoelectric element attached to a vibrating bistable...
