Detection of simultaneous structural problems using multiple structural health monitoring techniques by Yang, Lu

“…After the construction, cracks, wear and tear, fatigue, creep, etc., will appear anytime during their life span, which significantly affects the capacity of the structure to bear loads. Hence structure health monitoring (SHM) technique came into existence to detect the structural problems and increase its life span. …”

Tribochemical Characterization and Tribocorrosive Behavior of CoCrMo Alloys: A Review by Toh, Wei Quan, Tan, Xipeng, Bhowmik, Ayan, Liu, Erjia, Tor, Shu Beng

“…However, poor design and machinability as well as unsatisfactory surface finish subjected the all-metal joint replacement to being superseded by a polyethylene bearing. Continued improvement in manufacturing techniques together with the reality that polyethylene wear debris can cause hazardous reactions in the human body has brought about the revival of metal-on-metal (MOM) hip joints in recent years. …”

A boundary-fragment-model for object detection by Opelt, A, Pinz, A, Zisserman, A

“…</p> <p>We demonstrate the following results: (i) the BFM detector is able to represent and detect object classes principally defined by their shape, rather than their appearance; and (ii) in comparison with other published results on several object classes (airplanes, cars-rear, cows) the BFM detector is able to exceed previous performances, and to achieve this with less supervision (such as the number of training images).…”
