Visual place recognition (VPR) is a fundamental but challenging problem that has not been solved completely for a long time, especially in a kaleidoscopic environment.Recent advanced works which exploit ConvNet landmarks as a representation of an image for the VPR have demonstrated promising performance under condition and viewpoint changes.In this

Explosive reactive armor (ERA) is currently being actively developed as a protective system for mobile devices against ballistic threats such as kinetic energy penetrators and shaped-charge jets.Considering mobility, the aim is to design a protection system with a minimal amount of required mass.The efficiency of an ERA is sensitive MEDIUM HOLD SPR

Abnormal fetal growth is a risk factor for infant morbidity and mortality and is associated with cardiometabolic diseases in adults.Genetic influences on fetal growth can vary at different gestation times, but genome-wide association studies have been limited to birthweight.We performed trans-ethnic genome-wide meta-analyses Indigestion and fine ma

We report a numerical study of a broadband metamaterial absorber in visible light region by utilizing a single layer of metal-dielectric-metal configuration.The absorption bandwidth and absorption performances are tailored by varying the resonator shapes and metal materials.The absorption bandwidth of the proposed metamaterial absorber (MA) structu

Engine mount tuning is a multi-disciplinary exercise since Spreads it affects Idle-shake, Road-shake and power-train noise response.Engine inertia is often used as a tuned absorber for controlling suspension resonance related road-shake issues.Last but not least, vehicle ride and handling may also be affected by mount tuning.In this work, Torque-Ro
