There should not be any mystery: a comment on sampling issues in bibliometrics
(2016)
A research unit wants to assess whether its publications tend to be more cited than academic publications in general. This research unit could be anything from a lonesome researcher to a national research council sponsoring ...
Crop scouting using UAV imagery : a case study for potatoes
(2020)
Abstract : Crop scouting is essential to manage crops such as potatoes and detect stresses. In fact, conventional approaches require a lot of time and staff. The rise of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery offers interesting ...
Mapping ecosystem services provided by wetlands at multiple spatiotemporal scales : a case study in Quebec, Canada
(2019)
Abstract : Wetlands are affected by climate and anthropogenic changes, which influence the ecosystem services (ES) they provide. This study presents a spatially explicit quantification of wetland ESs. The study site is the ...
Time-domain numerical model of substation conductor span subjected to short-circuit loading
(2017)
Abstract: "Short-circuit faults in electrical power networks result in substantial electromagnetic forces on conductor cables as well as supporting structures. These dynamic forces often have a leading impact on the ...
Simplified design method for energy dissipating devices in retrofitting of seismically isolated bridges
Autre titre : Building on our growth opportunities = Miser sur nos opportunités de croissance
(2015)
Abstract: This paper presents an innovative simplified method for the optimum design of seismically isolated bridges incorporating energy dissipating devices. For an isolated bridge subjected to an earthquake, the deformation ...
Comparative effects of adaptation on layer II-III and layer V-VI neurons in cat V1
(2016)
Abstract: V1 is fundamentally grouped into columns that descend from layers II–III to V–VI. Neurons inherent to visual cortex are capable of adapting to changes in the incoming stimuli that drive the cortical plasticity. ...
Experimental testing of a new hysteretic damper for base isolated bridges
Autre titre : Resilient infrastructure = Infrastructures résilientes
(2016)
Abstract: An experimental procedure was developed to implement a simplified design method of supplemental dampers for isolated highway bridges. For seismically base-isolated bridges subjected to an earthquake, the principal ...
Testing steel lattice towers with a hybrid (numerical/ experimental) method
(2016)
Abstract : The analysis of transmission line steel lattice towers is usually performed with linear numerical methods. However, the actual behaviour of bolted lattice towers is complex and may be highly affected by different ...
Review of advanced modelling methods for lattice steel towers
(2016)
Abstract : The analysis of transmission line steel lattice towers is usually performed with simplified linear numerical methods. However, the actual behaviour of bolted lattice towers is complex and may be affected by ...
Electrophysiological and firing properties of neurons: categorizing soloists and choristers in primary visual cortex
(2015)
Abstract: Visual processing in the cortex involves various aspects of neuronal properties such as morphological, electrophysiological and molecular. In particular, the neural firing pattern is an important indicator of ...
