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.</p> <p>Alongside the aforementioned research projects, the relevant history and theory contextualising the crystallographic methods used is presented.…”

A random-key genetic algorithm-based method for transportation network vulnerability envelope analysis under simultaneous multi-link disruptions by Gu, Y, Ryu, S, Xu, Y, Chen, A, Chan, H-Y, Xu, X

“…Specifically, the TNVE problem can be formulated as a binary integer bi-level program (BLP), in which the upper-level problem maximizes/minimizes the remaining network performance under a given number of disrupted links, and the lower-level problem adopts the shortest path problem to check the post-disruption connectivity of each origin–destination (O-D) pair while circumventing the cumbersome path enumeration or path set pre-generation. …”

Scheduled activity energy-aware distributed cluster- based routing algorithm for wireless sensor networks with non-uniform node distribution by Nokhanji, Nooshin

“…SA-EADC adds another phase as “sensor redundancy check and activation” to EADC. It identifies the redundant sensor nodes, whose sensing coverage area are also covered completely by their direct neighbors and turns off them. …”
