Estimates of biomass and fixed carbon at a rainforest in Panama
(2012-10)
This paper presents an estimation of the quantity of carbon fixed in trees in a one hectare (ha) plot at the Cerro Pelado-Gamboa Hydrology Tropical Observatory, which is located in the province of Colon, Panama. The ...
Seismic Response of Hybrid Systems with Metallic and Viscous Dampers
(2016-06-27)
Metallic dampers can enhance structural performance by reducing seismically induced lateral displacements, and by reducing inelastic behavior of beams and columns. Limiting story drift also indirectly allows for mitigation ...

Stairway tracking based on automatic target selection using directional filters
(02/09/2011)
In this paper we are proposing to detect the localization and recognition of an indoor stairway. This is a fundamental step in the implementing of autonomous stair climbing navigation, as well as the implementing of passive ...
Smoke detection for static cameras
(01/28/2015)
This paper describes the smoke detection for static cameras. The background subtraction was used to determine moving objects. Color characteristics were utilized to distinguish smoke regions and other scene members. Separate ...
Airflow and insulation effects on simultaneous syngas and biochar production in a top-lit updraft biomass gasifier
(2017-10-11)
The objective of this study was to understand the effect of airflow and insulation on syngas and biochar generations of rice hulls and woodchips in a top-lit updraft gasifier. Biochar yield decreased with increasing airflow. ...
