Human detection based on a probabilistic assembly of robust part detectors by Mikolajczyk, K, Schmid, C, Zisserman, A

“…Feature selection and the part detectors are learnt from training images using AdaBoost.</p> <br> <p>The detection algorithm is very efficient as (i) all part detectors use the same initial features, (ii) a coarse-to-fine cascade approach is used for part detection, (iii) a part assembly strategy reduces the number of spurious detections and the search space. …”

Evaluation of high-strength concrete interior beam-column joints under simulated seismic loading by Leong, Chee Lai

“…Based on the test results, some relaxation of the bond requirements in beam-column joints is possible as improvement of bond strength was noticed where the bond strength increases with the increase in concrete compressive strength. …”

Synthesis of borate-based epoxy molding compound for radiation hardened electronics packaging by Muhammad Ridhwan Md Yusoff

“…FTIR analysis concluded that the improvement in decomposition temperature and glass transition temperature of the epoxy-boron oxide samples is not contributed by a new bond or phase. Other characterization technique such as Mass Spectroscopy (MS) is proposed for future works to confirm the possibility on the formation of new bond or phase in the samples. …”

Mechanical properties of additively manufactured kraft paper lattices and paper-epoxy interpenetrating phase composites for polymer foam replacement by Lim, Guo Yao, Kuek, Ryan Jian Xing, Teo, Javen, Seetoh, Ian Peiyuan, Lai, Chang Quan

“…Other than acting as supports to reduce bending of the diagonal struts, epoxy was found to infiltrate into the space between kraft paper fibers, forming a fiber-reinforced composite that conferred an excellent bond to the paper lattice and epoxy. …”

Wannier-function software ecosystem for materials simulations by Marrazzo, A, Beck, S, Margine, ER, Marzari, N, Mostofi, AA, Qiao, J, Souza, I, Tsirkin, SS, Yates, JR, Pizzi, G

“…Wannier functions can be obtained for isolated or extended systems (both crystalline and disordered) and can be used to understand chemical bonding; to characterize electric polarization, magnetization, and topology; and as an optimal basis set, providing accurate interpolations in reciprocal space or large-scale Hamiltonians in real space. …”

Modifying the Molecular Structure of Carbon Nanotubes through Gas-Phase Reactants by Giannetto, Michael J., Johnson, Eric P., Watson, Adam, Dimitrov, Edgar, Kurth, Andrew, Shi, Wenbo, Fornasiero, Francesco, Meshot, Eric R., Plata, Desiree L.

“…Some of this limitation stems from a lack of understanding of the chemical bond-building mechanisms at play in CNT growth. Here, we provide experimental evidence that supports an alkyne polymerization pathway in which short-chained alkynes directly incorporate into the CNT lattice during growth, partially retaining their side groups and influencing CNT morphology. …”

Optical remote spectral acquisition of elemental stoichiometry by Reeves, JT, Hasnain, SS, Nessel, MP, Talbot, CJ, Thomson, ER

“…Optical remote sensing (RS) enables the study of the elemental composition of Earth’s surface over broad spatial extents by detecting reflected electromagnetic radiation. Covalent bonds of macromolecular structures often reflect electromagnetic radiation at specific wavelengths, and in some cases relate to bonds of specific elemental identity. …”

Topochemical cation exchange reactions of Ruddlesden-Popper oxides by Conway, R

“…In contrast, ZnCaTa2O7 adopts a polar a^- b^- c^+ 〖/-(a^- b^- )c〗^+ distorted structure described in the P2cm space group, where the Zn2+ cations order in a striped pattern within the interlayer tetrahedral coordination sites to optimise the bonding of the Ca2+ A-cations.…”
