Global shoreline forecasting with a clustering approach

Coastal areas around the world have always been densely populated areas. However, sea-level-rise and an increase in single extreme events due to climate change, threaten the coastal areas and their inhabitants. Governmental organizations, coastal managers and various private parties thrive for better insights into long-term shoreline behavior...

Damage Mechanisms in Composite Materials: Real-time Clustering and Classification of Acoustic Emission Signals

A lot of studies have been done on Acoustic Emission (AE) covering a wide range of materials and applications. Within a structure that is under loading, AE has proven to be useful in determining the type, location and accumulation of damage within a material. The general goal is to use AE for inservice monitoring of structurally loaded parts....
