Modelling the M-Effect in H.R.C. Fuses
… data made. Finally, the possible ageing of fuses utilizing M-effect is studied and fuse service-life predictions made.

Investigation of disintegration and arcing in electric fuses
… phenomena of fault current limiting of HBC fuses using spectroscopic analysis of the arc light radiation. The range of studies covered have led to new understandings of fundamental current limiting behaviour of HBC and open type fuses which contribute, in a small way, to the knowledge base …

Evaluating Shear links for Use in Seismic Structural Fuses
… links that are part of replaceable structural fuses, while the other elements of the building remain in the elastic state. In this study, by identifying the issues associated with general fuses previously used in structures, the behavior of the links is investigated and procedures to improve …

Topology Optimization of Steel Shear Fuses to Resist Buckling
Shear-acting structural fuses are steel plates with cutouts subjected to in-plane lateral displacements during extreme loading events such as earthquakes, that dissipate energy through localized shear or flexural yielding mechanisms. Although previous studies have reported that fuses with specific …

Large-Scale Cyclic and Hybrid Simulation Testing and Development of a Controlled-Rocking Steel Building System with Replaceable Fuses
… back to center, and 3) replaceable structural fuses that absorb seismic energy as the frames rock. The controlled rocking system is investigated and developed through analytical, computational, and experimental means. First, the mechanics of the system response are described based on …

On the design of reconfigurable ripple carry adders and carry save multipliers
… reconfiguration at the same time. Appropriate fuses are programmed to locate a faulty cell, and the programmed fuses are also used for reconfiguration. This leads to small area overhead, and hence, substantial improvement in yield. Experimental results show that the yield enhancement of …

The Development of a Novel Range of High Voltage Full-Range Fuse-Links
… - zones where there is no certainty that these fuses will be able to successfully interrupt the current after melting of the fuse element has begun. Advances in fuse technology have led to a new category of HV fuse-link - the 'Full Range' fuse. 'Full Range' fuses do not have this area of …

Jules Valles: Counter-Ideologist
… in the structure that informs the work and fuses the numerous individual narratives into an effective counter-ideological weapon. This inner structure is the author's creation of a dialectic through which he systematically attacks the principal hegemonic agencies of the society of his …

Computational and Experimental Investigation of Seismic Structural Fuse Shapes for Structural Systems
Structural fuses are ductile elements of a structure that are designed to yield and protect the surrounding members from damage, and then be replaceable after a major seismic event. A promising type of seismic structural fuse consists of a steel plate with engineered cutouts leaving a configuration …

Techniques for optimizing dynamic parallelism on graphics processing units
… limitations. Horizontal aggregation fuses grids launched by threads in the same warp, block, or grid into a single aggregated grid, thereby reducing the total number of grids launched and increasing the amount of work per grid to improve occupancy. Vertical aggregation fuses grids …

The modern uses of tradition in contemporary Korean theatre: A critical analysis from an intercultural perspective
… emergence of a new intercultural theatre which fuses native Korean and Western theatres.

Discrete-continuous optimization for robot perception via semidefinite relaxation
… named Fast Unconstrained SEmidefinite Solver (FUSES), utilizes a novel SDP relaxation and is able to solve similar problems in milliseconds. We benchmark both techniques in multi-class image segmentation problems against state-of-the-art MRF solvers and show that both techniques achieves …

UNDERNEATH THE STREETS, THE BEACH: DRIFTING TOWARD/FROM A PROTO-POSTSTRUCTURALIST PERFORMANCE OF EVERYDAY SPATIAL SUBJECTIVITY
… maps a proto-poststructuralist tradition and fuses a subsequent methodology with/in a practice derived from performance studies to uncover a spatially informed corporeal notion of subjectivity. Combining the cultural and historically radical motility of the street skateboard and precursory …

Fusion of Character Tables and Schur Rings of Dihedral Groups
… the class algebra of H. We will also say that G fuses from H. In this case, the classes and characters of H can fuse to give the character table of G. We investigate the case where H is the dihedral group. In many cases, G can be completely determined. In general, G can be proven to have many …

Early English and French Lyrical Poetry: A Comparative Study
… than any other. A flashlight of intuition fuses emotion and idea and from the resulting union,secret and elusive,springs the lyric mood. Add to this latter a gift of expression, spontaneous, impassioned, and rhythmical, and the lyric is born, stamped with the individuality of the author,and …

Information fusion for an unmanned underwater vehicle through probabilistic prediction and optimal matching
… vehicle (UUV).We consider a system that fuses contact reports from automated information system (AIS) data and active and passive sonar sensors. A linear assignment problem with learned assignment costs is solved to fuse sonar and AIS data. Since the sensors operate effectively at …

A robust INS/PnP fusion method for GNSS-denied navigation of small UAVs
… and have been used before. The tight approach fuses INS information with camera measurements at pixel level. It is considered as an optimal approach in terms of estimation accuracy. However, it has a tendency to diverge under certain conditions: (1) Unfavorable relative geometry between the …
