Pore pressure and consolidation of saturated silty clay induced by progressively heating/cooling

The thermal pore pressure and consolidation of a saturated silty clay are experimentally studied. The specimen was heated progressively from the room temperature of 25 °C to 85 °C (T = 25 °C → 35 °C → 45 °C … → 85 °C), and then cooled from 85 °C to 25 °C (T = 85 °C → 75 °C → 65 °C … → 25 °C), with (case 1) or without (case 2) drainage between temperature stages at four confining pressures (50, 100, 150 and 200 kPa, respectively). It shows that during the undrained heating/cooling, the pore pressure reaches a peak at the time when the specimen is heated to the required temperature and then decreases slightly, and it declines to a minimum at the time when the specimen is cooled to the required temperature and then increases slightly. Such phenomenon can be attributed to the adjustment of soil structure induced by the interaction of solid grains with pore water. On the other hand, during the drained heating/cooling, the maximum pore pressure increases with the increase of temperature stages, and the normalized negative pore pressures show a decreasing trend with the decrease of temperature stages. This appears to be especially obvious as the applied confining pressures decrease. It is also observed that consolidation volumetric strains during the isothermal drainage increase significantly with the increase of temperature stage, and the reduction in the volumetric strains due to absorption after cooling shows a decreasing trend with the decrease of temperature stage.     

License Plate Recognition for Parking Control System by Mathematical Morphology

Nowadays, license plate recognition for parking systems is a critical task to provide automatic control of customers and payment. This paper introduces a new method for automatic recognition of license plates of vehicles by mathematical morphology.The proposed method can provide the license plate number of the plates in different light conditions, colors,sizes, and inclination(angles). The algorithm can recognize the license plates of European Union vehicles quickly and correctly. The pattern learning of mathematical skeletons has high efficiency in the process. The performance of the algorithm is demonstrated well by the test in a parking control system.     

Opportunities for and limits to Academics as System builders—The case of realizing the potential of gasified biomass in Austria

Gasified biomass is a technology that has the potential to partially replace fossil fuels for the production of heat, electricity, transport fuels, synthetic natural gas (BioSNG) and chemicals. In the context of climate change, biomass gasification is an attractive technology. It is, however, still in the early phase of its diffusion and much of the knowledge resides in the academic sector and in small companies—the technological innovation system (TIS) is in the process of being formed. Austria is one of the leading European countries in this field and much of the development in Austria can be traced to one prominent individual, Professor Hermann Hofbauer at the Technical University of Vienna. The purpose of this paper is to analyze how and the extent to which an individual academic, Professor Hofbauer, has influenced the formation of a TIS centred on gasified biomass in Austria. We find that his impact is multidimensional and significant but that there is also a frictional and intentional resistance that obstructs the commercialisation of the new technology. These sources of resistance go beyond the ability of an individual system builder to handle. Policy makers, therefore, need to add a strong element of system building activities that interact with and supplement those pursued by Professor Hofbauer.     

Origin and early evolution of vertebrate skeletonization

Data from living and extinct faunas of primitive vertebrates imply very different scenarios for the origin and evolution of the dermal and oral skeletal developmental system. A direct reading of the evolutionary relationships of living primitive vertebrates implies that the dermal scales, teeth, and jaws arose synchronously with a cohort of other characters that could be considered unique to jawed vertebrates: the dermoskeleton is primitively composed of numerous scales, each derived from an individual dental papilla; teeth are primitively patterned such that they are replaced in a classical conveyor-belt system. The paleontological record provides a unique but complementary perspective in that: 1) the organisms in which the skeletal system evolved are extinct and we have no recourse but to fossils if we aim to address this problem; 2) extinct organisms can be classified among, and in the same way as, living relatives; 3) a holistic approach to the incorporation of all data provides a more complete perspective on early vertebrate evolution. This combined approach is of no greater significance than in dealing with the origin of the skeleton and, combined with recent discoveries and new phylogenetic analyses, we have been able to test and reject existing hypotheses for the origin of the skeleton and erect a new model in their place.

Spiral-fashion embroidery path generation in embroidery CAD systems

The spiral fashion is an important kind of embroidery fashion. In the spiral fashion embroidery, a user-designed region is embroidered with a thread along a uniform spiral path whose shape is similar to the region's contours. An approach which can automatically generate this kind of embroidery path is proposed in this paper. In this approach, the region is decomposed into several ring-shaped sub-regions at first. Then these sub-regions are organized into a binary tree and the spiral lines in these sub-regions are connected to form a single path.
