The double covering of Orthogonal groups by the Spin groups is vital for many applications. In this dissertation, we address the important question of inverting the covering map φ_{p,q} : Spin⁺(p,q) → SO⁺(p,q) for (p,q)∈ ...

Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) has been widely used to define petrofabrics in silicic, elevated-temperature pyroclastic deposits (i.e., ignimbrites) and these fabrics have been successfully utilized to infer ...

Enhancing organizational diversity and inclusion has received increasing attention from scholars and practitioners. Research suggests that diversity and inclusion positively affects organizational outcomes such as higher ...

In the last few years we have witnessed the development of sophisticated attacks that target critical infrastructures. Such attacks can cause catastrophic damage; for instance, attacks on the electricity system can impact ...

Wireless aeronautical telemetry systems are crucial when aircraft, missiles, or spacecraft are tested. Telemetry from an onboard flight test instrumentation system is the primary source of real-time measurement and status ...

Computational image analysis methods have been successfully implemented in many tumor studies to assist pathologists and medical professionals in making informed decisions. Osteosarcoma is one of the most common types of ...

In power electronic applications, frequency response analysis (FRA) data is used to analyze the plant, design the control and verify the control design. Traditionally, external equipment is used to measure the frequency ...
