Optimization of lateral position of autonomous truck platoons to improve roadway infrastructure sustainability
… trucks seldom follow a straight path. Their lateral position within a lane tends to deviate significantly as they travel; this is often referred to as “wheel wander.” While the lateral position of connected and autonomous trucks (CATs) is typically more channelized, it can be remotely …

Optical sensors for the location of buried optical cables and disturbances acting on extended lengths of optical fibre
… The first sensor determines the longitudinal position of acoustic disturbances acting on an extended length of optical fibre cable and the second system locates the lateral position of a buried dielectrically-sheathed fibre cable. The second system is believed to be the first optically-based …

Volumetric Scintillation Dosimetry For Scanned Proton Beams
… of a tank of LS imaged by two orthogonally-positioned CCD cameras. The optical response of the system was evaluated, and correction methods were developed for optical artifacts. Quenching correction methods were developed to preserve the linearity of dose measurement in the Bragg peak. The …

Mechanical Properties of Individual Molecules : An Interface between the Structure and the Function of the Molecules
Optical tweezers with a 3D position detection were used to investigate the mechanical properties of individual molecules. The molecular receptor-ligand pair of avidin and biotin was used as a model system to establish our technique. Optical tweezers created the possibility to position the …

Wheel Path Wandering Based On Field Data
<p>The position and width of wheel path on a pavement lane is an important consideration in conducting pavement distress survey, especially for distinguishing longitudinal cracking from fatigue cracking. Currently, the widely used wheel path definition is derived from the LTPP distress manual with …

High Speed Instrumentation for Inspection of transparent parts
… fps) in conjunction with submicron precision positioning stages (20 nm resolution) to rapidly collect topological data on the microfluidic devices. The stream of images are processed using a depth from focus technique to provide surface inspection with 0.5 micron lateral resolution and 1 …

Effect of Lateral Positioning on Central Venous Pressure
… was conducted to investigate the effects of lateral positioning on central venous pressure. It was hypothesized that lateral positioning would not significantly change the central venous pressure so long as the subjects were placed on the same horizontal plane for both supine and lateral …

Development of a strategy model of the driver
… Each subject's time histories of steering, lateral position, and yaw angle provided a basis for estimating the driver parameters necessary to specify an appropriate model of the subject. Ten driver models were then programmed to describe the 10 subjects, respectively. Each model was run over …

Numerical modeling and ray tracing of SPatIal Frequency modulation for Imaging
… axis at a linear frequency sweep giving each lateral position a unique spatial frequency. By taking the Fourier transformation of the voltage verses time readout of a single element detector position data can be extracted for each point along the modulation axis. The geometric analysis is …

Prediction of wheel wear profiles by analytical methods
… are determined as functions of the wheelset lateral position. Second, a time history of the wheelset positions and velocities is determined from a simulation of the vehicle response to a specified track input. Finally, a wear algorithm dependent on the geometry and the dynamics is used to …

Punctuated Aggradational Cycles In The Thacher Member Of The Manlius Formation, Hudson Valley Region, New York
… cycles separated by correlative sharp non-depositional surfaces. Vertically, within each PAC, facies represent aggradational shallowing; laterally adjacent facies in each PAC represent contiguous paleoenvironments. Between PACs facies change abruptly at PAC boundaries in response to rapid …

Efeitos do programa de exercícios multicomponentes em grupos de idosos comunitários com baixa escolaridade: ensaio clínico randomizado duplo cego
… 1st and 2nd assessments in the anteroposterior position under the following conditions: semantic verbal fluency (p = 0.035), calculations (p = 0.043), memory / attention (p = 0.011). In the mid-lateral position, there was a statistical difference in the condition of open eyes (p = 0.039). In …

Hydrodynamic Interactions of an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle Operating in Close Proximity to a Moving Submarine
… interactions based on the UUVs longitudinal position, lateral position, speed, heading angle, UUV diameter, and UUV length. The model was validated using an out of sampling method and was shown to be capable of accurately predicting the hydrodynamic interactions between a submarine and UUV.

Techniques Found in Administering Intragluteal Injection
… varied in the following ways. None of the nurses positioned the patients to secure maximum relaxation with the prone and toe-in position. Eighty-four percent utilized the lateral position. Fourteen percent drew or palpated to locate the upper outer quadrant while 86 percent administered the …

Lateralization of Sinusoidally - Amplitude-Modulated Tones: Effects of Spectral Locus and Temporal Variation
… of spectral locus and temporal variation, the lateralization of sinusoidally-amplitude-modulated tones. An acoustic pointing task was employed in which listeners varied the interaural intensitive disparity of a narrow band of noise (the pointer) so that it matched the intracranial position of a …

Maternal and cardiac output response to vasopressor therapy during spinal anaesthesia for Caesarean Section in severe preeclampsia
… maternal haemodynamics were measured in the left lateral position, using minimal invasive cardiac output monitoring (LiDCOrapid). A 300 mL colloid preload was then administered. After standard spinal anaesthesia, 20 patients whose mean arterial pressure decreased to a predetermined target value …
