Dynamics and stability of evaporating and condensing liquid layers by Wei, Tao

“…In the (1+1)-dimensional [(1+1)D] simulation, well-defined capillary ridges can be observed on both sides of the valley under positive gravity (G > 0) and main and secondary droplets are expected to be seen under negative gravity (G < 0), while a ridge can be trapped in a large-scale drained region in both cases. …”

A discrete event formulation for multi-robot collision avoidance on pre-planned trajectories by Deplano, Diego, Franceschelli, Mauro, Ware, Simon, Rong, Su, Giua, Alessandro

“…Robots are modeled by automata, the environment is partitioned into a square grid where cells represent free space, obstacles and walls, which are modeled as shared resources among robots. The main contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we propose a problem formulation based on mixed integer linear programming to compute an optimal schedule for the pre-planned trajectories. …”

Investigate of degradation mechanism of paint for building surfaces in Singapore by Soh, Liang Bin

“…This paint encompasses the technology to reflect solar irradiation from the sun on building surfaces, which in turn helps to keep the surface temperature of the building to a minimum. The main problem lies in the degradation of the paint, causing it to deteriorate after prolong usage. …”

Road pothole detection from smartphone sensor data using improved LSTM by Singh, Prabhat, Kamal, Ahmed E., Bansal, Abhay, Kumar, Sunil

“…However, low accuracy in detecting the pothole in low-light conditions is taken as the main problem in this work. To address this issue, we presented an Improved Long Short Term Memory model (ILSTM) that combines a three-layer deep LSTM with a One-Dimensional Local Binary Pattern (1D-LBP) layer to detect the presence of potholes during low-light conditions and extract features such as the number of neighbouring samples and pixel values. …”

Sympathetic-neuron-derived neuropeptide Y (NPY) regulates adipose tissue immunometabolic homeostasis by Zhu, Y

“…Our imaging of cleared murine brown and white adipose tissue (BAT and WAT) established that NPY⁺ sympathetic axons are only a minority that mostly maps to the peri-vasculature; our analysis of single-cell RNA-sequencing datasets identifies mural cells as the main NPY-responsive cells in adipose tissues. We show that NPY sustains mural cells, known as a source of beige cells in both BAT and WAT (Long et al., 2014; Shamsi et al., 2021) and that NPY facilitates the differentiation to thermogenic adipocytes. …”

Looking deep at people: towards understanding and generating humans in images with deep learning by de Bem, RA

“…<p>Understanding and generating people in images and videos is a long-standing goal in computer vision. A significant effort has been devoted to these tasks by the research community along the last decades, greatly motivated by a large number of potential applications, like surveillance, human-machine interaction, action and behaviour recognition, motion capture, video reenactment, and computer graphics animation. …”

Mitigate the effect of distributed generators connected to distribution system. by Oraibi, Saleh Khairullah, Mohamad Idris, Rasyidah

“…This paper proposes the use of two methods, the first being the conventional method and the second being curve time grading methods to study and mitigate the effect of connecting the distributive generators to the IEEE15 bus distribution system. The main contribution of this work is that they are simple and applicable to all types of medium-sized networks and high speed to obtain results, compared with other methods that require the use of complex programs and require a long time to implement and obtain results. …”
