The intruder in modern drama
… with a prevalent modern Western character: the intruder. As the term suggests, this character interferes, interlopes, trespasses. He explicitly violates or penetrates another's private sphere, be this physical, emotional, or intellectual, and he consequently becomes involved with the person or …

Intruder Dynamic Response in Particulate Media
… Specifically, we study the dynamics of an intruder particle that is driven through a dense, disordered packing of particles. This practical technique has the benefit of being amenable to experimental application which we expect will motivate future studies in the area. We find the …

Intruder localization wireless sensor network radar design with virtual reference tags
… (Wireless Sensor Network) algorithm for human intruder localization and path detection. There are two commonly used position estimation techniques in WSN, ToA (Time of Arrival) and RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator). In ToA the difference between arrivals of signal is estimated and based …

Migration of an intruder particle in a boundary driven shear flow
… element simulations of a single large spherical intruder in a Couette shear flow composed of uniform sized particles. The simulation results are useful in providing a numerical reproduction of the experiments for size segregation and mixing. This in turn has a major importance in many industries …

Effect of Intruder Vertical Rate on Pilot Perception of Separation on a Cockpit Traffic Display
… of this study was to determine the effect of intruder vertical rate on pilots’ perception of aircraft separation as viewed on a cockpit traffic display. A group of 20 student pilots from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University participated as subjects. SuperCard® software and a Macintosh II® …

Effect of a Range Ring and of Intruder Vertical Rate on Pilot Perception of Separation on a Cockpit Display of Traffic Information
… to determine the effect of a range ring and intruder vertical rate on pilots’ perception of aircraft separation as viewed on a cockpit display of traffic information. A group of 30 pilots from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University participated as subjects. SuperCard® Version 1.6 software and a …

Liar's Domination in Grid Graphs
… graph <em>G</em> is the possible location for an intruder such as a thief. A protection device at a vertex <em>v</em> is assumed to be able to detect the intruder at any vertex in its closed neighborhood N[<em>v</em>] and identify at which vertex in N[<em>v</em>] the intruder is located. A …

Intrusion Detection In Wireless Sensor Networks
… so on can be used to identify the presence of an intruder in the field. In our case, the light sensor is chosen for the detection. When an intruder crosses the monitored environment, the system detects the changes of the light values, and any significant change meaning that a change greater than a …

Mesoscale Forces and Grain Motion in Granular Media Exhibiting Stick-Slip Dynamics: Effects of Friction and Grain Shape
… novel experiments. In one set of experiments, an intruder is pushed by a spring through an annular cell filled with a quasi-2D monolayer of photoelastic grains that either contact a glass substrate or float on water. We characterize the effects of basal friction between the substrate and grains, …

Pursuit-evasion games in mobile networks
… to secure a network or an area from malicious intruders. In this thesis, we investigate the interaction between the mobile agents and an intruder in the environment or the communication network. In contradistinction to the previous research in this area, we model the intrusion as a …

Ultrawideband Indoor Location And Tracking System
… of this thesis is to demonstrate an indoor intruder location and tracking system with UltraWideBand (UWB) technology and use data compression and Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) techniques to improve the performance of the location system. Reliable and accurate indoor positioning requires a …

Investigation of Accessory Olfactory Interneuron Physiology and Function After Experience-Dependent Plasticity
… Arc-expressing IGCs following intermale resident-intruder interactions. Using whole-cell patch clamp electrophysiology, I found that Arc-expressing IGCs display increased intrinsic excitability for several days after a single resident-intruder interaction. Further, I found that Arc-expressing IGCs …

Soil stabilization properties of flexible intruders
… the forces within a system when a flexible intruder is introduced to the system. We report on the increase in system forces as an effect of the flexible intruder and compare it to experiments with plant roots. Since soil is a granular material, using this method to increase the forces within …

Investigating Experience-Dependent Plasticity in the Accessory Olfactory Bulb
… immediate early gene Arc following the resident-intruder paradigm in an AOS-dependent manner. Targeted electrophysiological studies revealed that Arc-expressing IGCs in acute AOB slices from resident males displayed stronger excitation than non-expressing neighbors when sensory inputs are …

Smart security system for home (IOT)
… The step switch sensor is used to detect an intruder break in the house through door or window whereas the ultrasonic sensor is used to detect to a mobile intruder around the building campus. These sensors' signals are digital. They are first process inside the microcontroller. By uisng …

Development of situation recognition, environment monitoring and patient condition monitoring service modules for hospital robots
… in a hospital environment for four scenarios: Intruder detection, Patient behavioural analysis, Patient physical condition monitoring, and Environment monitoring. Since the Intruder detection and Patient behavioural analysis scenarios require the same equipment, they can be combined into one …

Verification and Enforcement of State-Based Notions of Opacity in Discrete Event Systems
… on their transitions. Assuming that the intruder observes system activity through some projection map and has complete knowledge of the system model, we define three notions of opacity with respect to a set of secret states: (i) initial-state opacity is a notion that requires the …

A model predictive control approach to a class of multiplayer minmax differential games
… containing a single defender and single intruder. We next extend the basic formulation to various advanced scenarios that include cases in which there are multiple defenders and intruders, and also ones that include varying assumptions about intruder strategies. Another main contribution …

Improving pilot understanding of TCAS through the traffic situation display
… simulator, background air traffic simulator, and intruder aircraft. The intruder aircraft uses seven dimensional waypoints to robustly follow trajectories and cause specific resolution advisories. Second, the relative benefits of, and potential concerns with, new TCAS TSDs are explored using a …
