In an attempt to improve process safety, today’s plants deploy sophisticated automation and control strategies. Despite these, accidents continue to occur. Statistics indicate that human error is the predominant contributor ...

Tonic identification is traditionally approached using pitch histogram. Acoustic characteristics of musical instruments have not been used for the purpose. The conventional tonic identifiers are either knowledge-based or ...

For synchronization applications, synchronous reference frame (SRF) phase-locked loop (PLL) is widely deployed. Its performance is excellent when the input voltage consists of only fundamental positive sequence (FPS) ...

Linear-in-the-parameters nonlinear controllers are widely used for active noise cancellation (ANC) in the presence of nonlinearities in the system. However, the performance of such controllers deteriorates significantly ...

We propose an energy minimization approach to detect multiple reflection symmetry axes present in a given image representing fronto-parallel view of a scene. We perform local feature matching to detect the pairs of mirror ...

This paper reports the extraction of concentration and pressure of methane using a 1650nm laser diode operated at its phase quadrature frequency (fq) and using the calibration-free residual amplitude modulation (RAM) method. ...

The strong dispersion, ultra-thin form-factor and robustness to degradation make metasurfaces attractive for color filter applications. In particular, transmission-mode filters using silicon could potentially replace ...

This paper discusses in detail the effects of device dimensions and layout/design rules on the analog performance of gate-first high-K gate dielectrics and metal gate (HKMG) nMOS transistors. It is observed through detailed ...
