NonGaussian estimation using a modified Gaussian sum adaptive filter
… in this approach, a modified Gaussian sum (MGS) estimation technique is developed that avoids the growing memory problem while providing effective state estimation. Several differences between the MGS and GS algorithms are examined. An MGS adaptive filter is derived for a general system and …

Evaluation of an advanced fine coal cleaning circuit
… separator known as the Multi-Gravity Separator (MGS). The synergistic effect of combining both processes in a single circuit resulted in improved ash and pyritic sulfur rejection with minimal losses in energy recovery. In addition, technical and economic analyses of this processing scheme suggest …

Exploitation of nonadditive variance through nonrandom mating
… and dams or among sires and maternal grandsires (mgs). Current mating programs, utilizing nonadditive genetic variance only by avoiding mating between close relatives to prevent inbreeding depression, could be improved upon by use of predicted combination effects due to nonadditive variation …

Thermomechanical Processing of Metallic Glasses
… MG samples. One well-known method to rejuvenate MGs is by introducing damage through plastic deformation. Here, an infrequently used approach to reach large plastic strains was tested, in which brittle fracture was avoided by deforming samples with a low aspect ratio through uniaxial compression. …
