  • Abrasive machining with MQSL. 
    Morris, Tom (Cranfield University, 2011-07)
    Grinding and polishing of engineered components are critical aspects of the precision manufacturing of high performance, quality assured products. Elevated process temperatures, however, are a common and for the most ...
  • Abrupt fault detection and isolation for gas turbine components based on a 1D convolutional neural network using time series data 
    Zhao, Junjie; Li, Yiguang (AIAA, 2020-08-17)
    The FDI step identifies the presence of a fault, its level, type, and possible location. Gas turbine gas-path fault detection and isolation can improve the availability and economy of gas turbine components. Data-driven ...
  • Abscisic acid acts essentially on stomata, not on xylem, to improve drought resistance in tomato 
    Haverroth, Eduardo J.; Oliveira, Leonardo A.; Andrade, Moab T.; Taggart, Matthew; McAdam, Scott A. M.; Zsögön, Agustin; Thompson, Andrew J.; Martins, Samuel C. V.; Cardoso, Amanda A. (Wiley, 2023-08-01)
    Drought resistance is essential for plant production under water-limiting environments. Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a critical role in stomata but its impact on hydraulic function beyond the stomata is far less studied. We ...
  • Absence behavior as traffic crash predictor in bus drivers 
    af Wåhlberg, Anders E.; Dorn, Lisa (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2009-12-31)
    Problem: Various indicators of health have been shown to be associated with traffic crash involvement. As general health is also related to absence from work, the latter variable may be more strongly related to crashes, ...
  • The absence or presence of a lytic coliphage affects the response of Escherichia coli to heat, chlorine, or UV exposure 
    Ameh, Ekwu M.; Tyrrel, Sean; Harris, Jim A.; Ignatiou, Athanasios; Orlova, Elena; Nocker, Andreas (Springer, 2018-03-15)
    Disinfection aims at maximal inactivation of target organisms and the sustainable suppression of their regrowth. Whereas many disinfection efforts achieve efficient inactivation when the effect is measured directly after ...
  • Absolute angle measurement using dual-wavelength laser speckle: theory and method 
    Gibson, Sam J.; Charrett, Thomas O. H.; Tatam, Ralph P. (Elsevier, 2023-11-30)
    This paper presents a method utilising the speckle pattern formed by dual-wavelength illumination for the measurement of the two out-of-plane surface angles with respect to the sensor frame. Theoretical expressions are ...
