Single antenna power measurements based direction finding : an FRI solution by Zhang, Song Bai

“…Determining the angle of arrival (AoA) for wireless source signals has great poten- tial practical applications, one example is beam forming in cellular communication. The conventional methodology used to determine the AoA mainly uses the an- tenna array as an acquisition system, and there are many signal process algorithms developed to retrieve the direction of arrival information. …”

Fabrication of artificial defects in aircraft components for nondestructive testing using 3D printing by Chan, Marcus Jia Jun

“…It was found that despite being able to correctly measure the component’s depth, the topography was found to be distorted due to a combination of beam spread and machine measurement errors. Lastly, due to the limitations and cost of this project, several recommendations and improvements have been identified. …”

A signal through the noise: accurate determination of hydrogen atom positions in crystal structures and optimisation of Laue neutron diffraction methods by Sackman, GA

“…This focuses on:</p> <p>Recommendations for the efficient collection of Laue neutron data, in order to optimise the data set completeness and awarded beam-time; strategic considerations for how to best answer the scientific question(s) at hand in a Laue neutron experiment, whilst planning against future contingencies; improving methods for crystal packing and shipping, particularly for air and moisture sensitive materials; discussing issues arising from ice forming on the crystal during a Laue neutron diffraction experiment, and methods for minimising this problem; more effectively modelling disorder using ring shapes, in the crystallographic refinement package CRYSTALS; providing rationale for Laue neutron specific checkCIF comments.…”

Surface Compositions of Trojan Asteroids by Emery, Joshua P., Binzel, Richard P., Britt, Daniel T., Brown, Michael E., Howett, Carly J. A., Martin, Audrey C., Melita, Mario D., Souza-Feliciano, Ana Carolina, Wong, Ian

“…A broad absorption at ∼3.1 μm in some less-red Trojans may indicate the presence of N-H bearing material. Mid-infrared emissivity spectra reveal the presence of fine-grained anhydrous silicates on the surfaces. …”

Organic solvent-assisted control of hydrogel structures and properties by Zhou, Quan

“…However, major limitations still exist for hydrogels, especially their mechanical weakness, which limits their use in load-bearing applications. In addition, due to their soft and wet nature, it remains technically challenging to generate hydrogel structures with complex geometries as the well-established techniques developed for shaping traditional engineering materials, such as machining and lithography, are no longer useful. …”
