Prospects for larger or more frequent earthquakes in the Los Angeles metropolitan region by Sieh, Kerry, Suppe, John, Dolan, James F., Rockwell, Thomas K., Yeats, Robert S., Huftile, Gary J., Gath, Eldon M., Shaw, John H.

“…Far too few moderate earthquakes have occurred within the Los Angeles, California, metropolitan region during the 200-year-long historic period to account for observed strain accumulation, indicating that the historic era represents either a lull between clusters of moderate earthquakes or part of a centuries-long interseismic period between much larger (moment magnitude, Mw, 7.2 to 7.6) events. …”

Coherent terahertz Smith-Purcell radiation generated by the microbunched electron beam by Zhang, H

“…Microbunch trains, with picosecond (or sub-picosecond) periodicities, were generated through a variety of methods, including the modulation of a long electron bunch in a plasma channel, direct generation of microbunches from a photocathode (at KEK-LUCX, Japan), and the modulation of a long bunch (with an initial density modulation) using the longitudinal space charge forces during its propagation in the beamline (at TTX, China). …”

Robust Control For Underwater Vehicle Systems With Time Delays by Triantafyllou, Michael S ., Grosenbaugh, Mark A.

“…The methodology is applicable to undenvater vehicle systems that exhibit time delays, including tethered vehicles that are positioned through the movements of a surface ship and autonomous vehicles that are controlled through an acoustic link. An example, using full-scale data from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution’s tethered vehicle ARGO, demonstrates the developments.…”

Benchmarking novel graph neural networks by Bhagwat, Abhishek

“…This enables us to compare various models for particular tasks such as graph classification, graph regression as well as edge or link prediction tasks. In this paper, we try to introduce two novel GNNs and methods to experiment and evaluate whether these new methods are able to achieve SOTA results on existing tasks and datasets. …”

Implementation of rateless coding on off the shelf commercial smartphone by Cheong, Benjie Yi Da

“…With the rapid increase of number of people having a camera smartphone, visible light communication (VLC) as a form of short range communication over screen-camera link emerges as a viable option. However, the reliability of the transmission is affected by several factors: the environment at which the transmission is taking place, camera performances, human factors such as trembling and the lack of a feedback channel. …”

Lights and sounds : effects of congruence and musical sophistication on auditory and visual perception by Aw, Justus Jinyue

“…Research has also shown that musical training improves pitch perception, and the current research was carried out to establish if there is a link between the two. A measure of musical sophistication was also used in place of time spent taking music lessons; this was done in order to capture other elements that encapsulated engagement with music beyond formal training and practice. …”
