Damage detection with small data set using energy-based nonlinear features
(Wiley Blackwell, 2016-01)This study proposes a new algorithm for damage detection in structures. The algorithm employs an energy-based method to capture linear and nonlinear effects of damage on structural response. For more accurate detection, ... -
Damage Estimation and Localization from Sparse Aerial Imagery
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021) -
Damage inspection of fiber reinforced polymer-concrete systems using a distant acoustic-laser NDE technique
(SPIE, 2010-04)In this paper, a distant acoustic-laser NDE technique is proposed, utilizing a high powered standoff parametric acoustic array (PAA) and laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV), for the detection of debonding and delamination in ... -
Damage to Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex Impairs Judgment of Harmful Intent
(Elsevier, 2010-03)Moral judgments, whether delivered in ordinary experience or in the courtroom, depend on our ability to infer intentions. We forgive unintentional or accidental harms and condemn failed attempts to harm. Prior work ... -
The damaging effect of passenger mutations on cancer progression
(American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), 2017-09)Genomic instability and high mutation rates cause cancer to acquire numerous mutations and chromosomal alterations during its somatic evolution; most are termed passengers because they do not confer cancer phenotypes. ... -
Damascus after the Muslim Conquest: Text and Image in Early Islam. By Nancy Khalek (New York, Oxford University Press, 2011) 224 pp. $74.00
(MIT Press, 2013)Today, the Umayyads make a more appealing subject to Western historians than to historians from the Islamic world because this first Islamic dynasty, though proudly Arab and vigorously involved in the spreading of Islam, ... -
Damped Lyman α absorbers as a probe of stellar feedback
(Oxford University Press, 2014-10)We examine the abundance, clustering and metallicity of Damped Lyman α Absorbers (DLAs) in a suite of hydrodynamic cosmological simulations using the moving mesh code arepo. We incorporate models of supernova and AGN ... -
Damping Pressure Pulsations in a Wave-Powered Desalination System
(ASME International, 2014-04)Wave-driven reverse osmosis desalination systems can be a cost-effective option for providing a safe and reliable source of drinking water for large coastal communities. Such systems usually require the stabilization of ... -
Dangerous Ground: One-Year-Old Infants are Sensitive to Peril in Other Agents’ Action Plans
(MIT Press, 2022)<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Do infants appreciate that other people’s actions may fail, and that these failures endow risky actions with varying degrees of negative utility (i.e., danger)? ... -
DAQExpert - An expert system to increase CMS data-taking efficiency
(IOP Publishing, 2018-09)The efficiency of the Data Acquisition (DAQ) of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment for LHC Run 2 is constantly being improved. A significant factor affecting the data taking efficiency is the experience of the DAQ ... -
DAQExpert the service to increase CMS data-taking efficiency
(EDP Sciences, 2020)<jats:p>The Data Acquisition (DAQ) system of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the LHC is a complex system responsible for the data readout, event building and recording of accepted events. Its proper functioning ... -
Dark gauge bosons: LHC signatures of non-abelian kinetic mixing
(Elsevier, 2017-07)We consider non-abelian kinetic mixing between the Standard Model SU(2)[subscript L] and a dark sector U(1)′ gauge group associated with the presence of a scalar SU(2)[subscript L] triplet. The magnitude of the resulting ... -
Dark Grand Unification in the axiverse: decaying axion dark matter and spontaneous baryogenesis
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2022-12-20)Abstract The quantum chromodynamics axion with a decay constant near the Grand Unification (GUT) scale has an ultralight mass near a neV. We show, however, that axion-like particles ... -
Dark hole maintenance with modal pairwise probing in numerical simulations of Roman coronagraph instrument
(SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 2022) -
Dark matter assimilation into the baryon asymmetry
(IOP Publishing, 2012-03)Pure singlets are typically disfavored as dark matter candidates, since they generically have a thermal relic abundance larger than the observed value. In this paper, we propose a new dark matter mechanism called "assimilation", ... -
Dark Matter benchmark models for early LHC Run-2 Searches: Report of the ATLAS/CMS Dark Matter Forum
(Elsevier BV, 2020)© 2019 The Authors This document is the final report of the ATLAS-CMS Dark Matter Forum, a forum organized by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations with the participation of experts on theories of Dark Matter, to select a minimal ... -
Dark Matter constraints on composite Higgs models
(Springer-Verlag, 2015-6)In composite Higgs models the pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone Boson (pNGB) nature of the Higgs field is an interesting alternative for explaining the smallness of the electroweak scale with respect to the beyond the Standard Model ... -
Dark matter effective field theory scattering in direct detection experiments
(American Physical Society, 2015-05)We examine the consequences of the effective field theory (EFT) of dark matter–nucleon scattering for current and proposed direct detection experiments. Exclusion limits on EFT coupling constants computed using the optimum ... -
Dark matter from dynamical SUSY breaking
(Springer Berlin / Heidelberg, 2010-06)We consider explicit models of dynamical supersymmetry breaking where dark matter is a 10 – 100 TeV strongly-interacting composite state carrying no standard model quantum numbers. These constructions are simple variants ... -
Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber : Recent R&D Results
(EDP Sciences, 2012-02)The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber collaboration recently reported a dark matter limit obtained with a 10 liter time projection chamber filled with CF[subscript 4] gas. The 10 liter detector was capable of 2D tracking ...
