Triangular angle rigidity for distributed localization in 2D by Chen, Liangming

“…More importantly, inspired by Laman's theorem, we propose a topological, necessary and sufficient condition to check generic triangular angle rigidity. Based on the results on triangular angle rigidity, both algebraic and topological localizability conditions are developed, which are necessary and sufficient when the number of anchor nodes in the network is two. …”

Preprocessing and authentication of 2D barcodes by Chen, Changsheng.

“…In this thesis, we investigate the detection step of a barcode by modeling its finder pattern as a 2D signal with finite rate of innovations and reconstructing it through block by block operation. Then, a quality checking step of the barcode images is added to reject those poor quality images for saving the time in processing the undecodable images and avoiding wrongly decoded information. …”

Membrane compaction in forward osmosis process by Ng, Daniel Yee Fan, Chen, Yunfeng, Dong, Zhili, Wang, Rong

“…The TFC membranes were continuously tested in FO experiments for 24 h by using DI water as feed and NaCl solutions of different concentrations as draw solution, and their performances were checked again using fresh feed solutions. At the end of FO experiments, all TFC membranes experienced water flux and salt flux decline to different extents. …”
