Experimental and numerical evaluation of composite floor systems under fire conditions by Tan, K.-H., Nguyen, T.-T.

“…This paper presents novel experimental results and observations from three one-quarter scale tests on two-way concrete slabs supported by protected steel edge beams under fire conditions. The sizes of the protected secondary edge beams were varied to study the effect of beam stiffness on the fire behaviour of the assemblies. …”

Cooperative collision avoidance in multirobot systems using fuzzy rules and velocity obstacles by Tang, Wenbing, Zhou, Yuan, Zhang, Tianwei, Liu, Yang, Liu, Jing, Ding, Zuohua

“…Moreover, they cannot deal with uncertain sensing data and linguistic requirements (e.g., the speed of a robot should not be large when it is near to other robots). Hence, to guarantee real-time collision avoidance and deal with linguistic requirements, a distributed and hybrid motion planning method, named Fuzzy-VO, is proposed for multirobot systems. …”

Plasmon geometric phase and plasmon hall shift by Shi, Li-kun, Song, Justin Chien Wen

“…This plasmon Hall shift, tunable by Hall conductivity as well as plasmon wavelength, displaces the incident and reflected plasmon trajectories and can be readily probed by near-field photonics techniques. Anomalous plasmon geometric phases dramatically enrich the nanophotonics toolbox, and yield radical new means for directing plasmonic beams.…”

Evaluating geospatial accuracy for equity analyses: a case study of the U.S. National Bridge Inventory by Gandy, CA, Kang, X, Ritsch, N, Armanios, DE

“…Phase 3 assesses the feasibility of enhancing location granularity through a hand-checked case study. We find that for coarser geospatial levels (state and county), equity-based analyses may be possible, but for more granular geospatial levels (place and census tract), which is where equity-based analyses are often conducted, the data may need greater buffering and hand checks to ensure accuracy. …”

Predicting bank failures : a comparison of the Cox proportional hazards model and time-varying covariates model. by Cheng, Philip Yim Kwong.

“…As a contribution to bank regulation by improving the accuracy of predicting failed banks, I first illustrate the use of martingale and other residuals as diagnostic checks for Cox’s proportional hazards model. Second, I discuss and substantiate the claim that a time-varying covariates model is superior to the Cox model as a bank failure model.…”
