Methods to evaluate 3D lidars used for automated driving

January 1, 2025
Author(s)
Prem Rachakonda, Abhilash Mane, Craig I. Schlenoff, Kamel S. Saidi
Evaluating perception sensor systems for on-road autonomous vehicles is still fraught with ambiguity due to the varying and dynamic environmental factors that these vehicles encounter. The critical safety of on-road AV operations is heavily dependent on

Deformation of PMMA samples in cone calorimeter and anaerobic gasification experiments

October 20, 2024
Author(s)
Karen De Lannoye, Isaac Leventon, Lucie Hasalova, Alexander Belt, Ernst-Arndt Reinecke, Lukas Arnold
16 Cone calorimetry and anaerobic gasification experiments are often used to assess material 17 flammability of bench-scale (coupon sized) samples in response to well-characterized external radiant 18 heating. In this project, it has been observed that the

Foundry manufacturing of octave-spanning microcombs

September 6, 2024

We develop a multiscale coarse-grain model of the NIST Monoclonal Antibody Reference Material 8671 (NISTmAb) to enable systematic computational investigations of high-concentration physical instabilities such as phase separation, clustering, and

Monte Carlo molecular simulations with FEASST version 0.25.1

September 5, 2024
Author(s)
Harold Hatch, Daniel Siderius, Vincent K. Shen
FEASST is an open-source Monte Carlo software for particle-based simulations. This software, which was released in 2017, has been used to study phase equilibrium, self-assembly, aggregation or gelation in biological materials, colloids, polymers, ionic

Myxospore density of Kudoa inornata, varies significantly within symmetrical white muscle tissue replicates of its fish host, the spotted seatrout, Cynoscion nebulosus

Takeshi Matsui, Po-Hsiang Hung, Han Mei, Xianan Liu, Fangfei Li, John Collins, Weiyi Li, Darach Miller, Neil Wilson, Esteban Toro, Geoffrey Taghon, Gavin Sherlock, Sasha Levy
To reduce the operational friction and scale DNA engineering, we report here an in vivo DNA assembly technology platform called SCRIVENER (Sequential Conjugation and Recombination for In Vivo Elongation of Nucleotides with low ERrors). SCRIVENER combines

A Note on Tangential Quadrilaterals

September 2, 2024
Author(s)
Pradeep Das, Abhishek Juyal, Dustin Moody
A tangential quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral whose sides are simultaneously tangent to a single circle. In this paper, the primary objective is to construct rational tangen- tial quadrilaterals characterized by having rational area, as well as
