Power Fingerprinting for Integrity Assessment of Embedded Systems
… a novel technique for assessing the execution integrity of embedded devices. A PFP monitor is an external device that captures the dynamic power consumption of a processor using fine-grained measurements at the clock-cycle level and applies anomaly detection techniques to determine whether the …

Seismic Tomography for the Integrity Assessment of Earthen Dams and Levees.
… were jointly considered for the purpose of dam integrity assessment. Multiple techniques were applied to an earthen embankment dam with no known defects near Oxford, Mississippi, and seismic refraction surveys were conducted on another earthen dam in Lawrence County, Alabama, which has known …

Structural integrity assessment of engineering components under cyclic loading at high temperature
Structural integrity assessment is essential for many industries, especially for industries which have machinery components and structures in operation at high temperature. Nuclear power plant industry is one of a good example, and they have planned to introduce the very high temperature reactor to …

Acoustic Emission Techniques and Cyclic Load Testing for Integrity Evaluation of Self-Compacting Normal and Self-Compacting Lightweight Prestressed Concrete Girders
… evaluate the presence of damage and structural integrity. Experimental results indicate that the 24h load test method was insensitive to the presence of damage in prestressed concrete girders and hence did provide a satisfactory integrity assessment of the members. Also, permanency, …

A contribution to risk-informed inspection and maintenance planning for unpiggable pipelines subject to internal corrosion
… cannot be inspected using this technique. Direct assessment, based on models that numerically assess corrosion in a pipeline, was developed to overcome this limitation and to facilitate inspection at certain sites. However, most of these models do not take localized corrosion into consideration, …
