Abstract: Linear trends, or site velocities, derived from global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positional time series have been commonly applied to site stability assessments, structural health monitoring, sea-level rise, and ...

Abstract: A typical turning process is taken as a representative dynamic event for metal machining operations. The intrinsically oscillatory nature of this process is discussed, considering a number of ...

Abstract: This study demonstrates the usefulness of an approach based on the Online Positioning User Service (OPUS) provided by the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to ...

Abstract: The Houston area has been suffering from subsidence for several decades. Therefore, continuously operating reference stations (CORS) in this area may have experienced considerable vertical displacements. The Online Positioning ...

Abstract: Global positioning system (GPS) technology has been frequently used to monitor geological hazards associated with ground deformations, such as long-term landslides and subsidence. When GPS data are processed, they yield ...

Abstract: Symmetric frictionless indentation of a reinforced, two‐dimensional, finite rectangular elastic strip by a flat or rounded stamp is studied. The reinforcement consists of a rigid one‐dimensional inclusion parallel to the ...

Abstract: As a solid electroluminescent source, white light emitting diode (LED) has entered a practical stage and become an alternative to replace incandescent and fluorescent light sources. However, due ...

Abstract: Harris-Galveston Subsidence District (HGSD), in collaboration with several other agencies, has been operating a dense Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) network for subsidence and faulting monitoring within the ...
