High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) was an astronomical observatory satellite primarily designed to take ultraviolet spectra. The satellite was a collaborative project between NASA, the UK Science Research Council and the European Space Agency (ESA). The mission was first proposed in early 1964, by a group of scientists in the United Kingdom, and was launched on January 26, 1978 aboard a NASA Delta rocket. The mission lifetime was initially set for 3 years, but in the end it lasted almost 18 years, with the satellite being shut down in 1996. The switch-off occurred for financial reasons, while the telescope was still functioning at near original efficiency.
Individuals’ decisions in social systems are frequently influenced by the behavior or choices of others. These social effects may lead to multiple collective states, bringing up coordination problems. The outcome cannot be predicted a priori even in small systems. Depending on the intensity of interactions and the individuals’ learning capacities, non-optimal states may emerge, due to coordination failures. Understanding the emergence of collective states, which comes from the individual behavior of a large number of interacting individuals, is essential for the comprehension of social and industrial organizations. Here we present a study of such collective phenomena using methods of statistical physics and numerical simulations. We...

This book characterizes various signals found in Wi-Fi networks. In particular, it analyzes Barker-spread signals, Complementary Code Keying signals, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed signals with Cyclic Prefix Code, and Microwave oven signals. Experimental and simulation results are utilized to refine and verify the theoretical models that use the specifications of the IEEE 802.11b/g standards throughout the book. The wireless interference resulting from intentional and unintentional sources is characterized and mitigated to provide better spectrum efficiency and dynamic resource allocation in WLANs. While Adaptive Antennas with Tapped Delay Lines are suggested to mitigate intentional interference from Wi-Fi sources, other...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, Interstate 70 runs east–west across the southwest part of the state. About half of the route is concurrent with Interstate 76 along the Pennsylvania Turnpike (this is the oldest segment of I-70 in Pennsylvania, having been completed in 1940). I-70 is one of only a few Interstate Highways to have a traffic signal - in this case, with U.S. Route 30 at Breezewood, where it leaves the Turnpike and heads south towards Maryland. The portion of I-70 between Washington, Pennsylvania and New Stanton, Pennsylvania falls well below modern Interstate Highway standards Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга...

INTERACTION OF OCEAN WAVES AND OFFSHORE STRUCTURES is that frequent phenomenon when artificial breakwaters are built for protecting coastal zone or natural bottom is formed by energetic sea state. With spectral and statistical agreement of realistic sea state, Mao-Lin Shen provide a numerical environment to identify phenomena which are difficult to be observed in field data or experimental outcome. Rigorous fluid mechanics were applied so that fluid visualization is possible and showed by flow field. Differ from traditional work, which can only visually recognizes vortices, Mao-Lin Shen establishes a process to auto-recognize vortex region, and thus vortex strength and location of vortex center have been identified scrupulously.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In the U.S. state of Missouri, Interstate 64 passes through in the St. Louis area. The entire route overlaps U.S. Route 40. Because the road was a main thoroughfare in the St. Louis area before the development of the Interstate Highway System, it is not uncommon for locals to refer to the stretch of highway as "Highway 40" rather than "I-64". On December 6, 2009, the portion of the highway running through the city of St. Louis was named the "Jack Buck Memorial Highway" in honor of the late sportscaster.

Interstate 84 (I-84) is an Interstate Highway in the Western United States that runs from Portland, Oregon, to a junction with Interstate 80 near Echo, Utah. The highway is a fork of I-80 to serve the Pacific Northwest, and was originally numbered Interstate 80N. The highway was signed with the I-84 designation in 1980, when a 1977 change in guidelines took effect that discouraged highway numbers with directional suffixes. The renumbering resulted in two highways being numbered I-84, with the other residing in the Northeastern United States. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается по технологии...

Interferometric synthetic aperture radar, also abbreviated InSAR or IfSAR, is a radar technique used in geodesy and remote sensing. This geodetic method uses two or more synthetic aperture radar images to generate maps of surface deformation or digital elevation, using differences in the phase of the waves returning to the satellite, or aircraft. The technique can potentially measure centimetre-scale changes in deformation over timespans of days to years. It has applications for geophysical monitoring of natural hazards, for example earthquakes, volcanoes and landslides, and also in structural engineering, in particular monitoring of subsidence and structural stability.

This book describes empirical research undertaken into intuitive interaction. This research is significant because it impacts on everyday use of everyday devices by everyday people, and has the potential to affect the ways in which products are designed and, more importantly, the ways in which they are understood by their users. Intuitive interaction involves the use of knowledge gained from other products and/or experiences. It is fast and generally non-conscious. Experimental studies revealed that prior exposure to products employing similar features helped participants to complete set tasks more quickly and intuitively, and that familiar features were intuitively used more often than unfamiliar ones. Three principles of intuitive...

Intuitionistic logic, or constructivist logic, is the symbolic logic system originally developed by Arend Heyting to provide a formal basis for Brouwer's programme of intuitionism. The system preserves justification, rather than truth, across transformations yielding derived propositions. From a practical point of view, there is also a strong motivation for using intuitionistic logic, since it has the existence property, making it also suitable for other forms of mathematical constructivism.

The modern telephone is the culmination of work done by many individuals. Alexander Graham Bell was the first to patent the telephone, an "apparatus for transmitting vocal or other sounds telegraphically", after experimenting with many primitive sound transmitters and receivers. However, the history of the invention of the telephone is a confusing collection of claims and counterclaims, made no less confusing by the many lawsuits which attempted to resolve the patent claims of several...

This book clarifies a number of methodological issues in Life Cycle Inventory modelling, as part of LCA. Some of these issues have been on the agenda for a long time, without coming to generally accepted solutions, and often not even to agreement on alternative approaches. Several of these subjects relate to the specific nature of LCA as a relatively simple method for decision support, focusing on technology relations in the life cycle. By this focus, it is simple enough to be operable by `small` users, but at the cost of leaving out many mechanism which are operant in reality. The report before you has three main chapters: Chapter 1 gives a survey of issues in LCA which need further elaboration, and indicates priorities. Chapter 2 is...

The Inverted Jenny (also known as an Upside Down Jenny or Jenny Invert) is a United States postage stamp first issued on May 10, 1918 in which the image of the Curtiss JN-4 airplane in the center of the design was accidentally printed upside-down; it is probably the most famous error in American philately. Only one pane of 100 of the invert stamps was ever found, making this error one of the most prized in all philately; an inverted Jenny was sold at a Robert A.

Inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) is a technique to generate a two-dimensional high resolution image of a target. In situations where other radars display only a single unidentifiable bright moving pixel, the ISAR image is often adequate to discriminate between various missiles, military aircraft, and civilian aircraft. Images of the target region produced by ISAR can be a useful tool in locating scattering regions on the target. ISAR images are produced by rotating the target and processing the resultant doppler histories of the scattering centers. If the target rotates in azimuth at a constant rate...

In inverse modeling, a model is calibrated by iteratively changing the estimates of its input parameters until the value of an objective function, which quantifies the errors between observed data and computed results, is minimized. This book (the Author’s PhD Thesis, defended in 2002 at Northwestern University) presents a numerical procedure that improves the state-of-the-practice of controlling ground movements associated with excavations. The methodology, developed and tested using data from a deep excavation through Chicago glacial clays, shows that: inverse analysis based on field monitoring data can be effectively used to update the predicted performance of the supported excavation system, and successful recalibration of the...
