  • Optimisations for quadrature representations of finite element tensors through automated code generation 

    Ølgaard, KB; Wells, Garth Nathan (ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, 2010)
    We examine aspects of the computation of finite element matrices and vectors which are made possible by automated code generation. Given a variational form in a syntax which resembles standard mathematical notation, the ...

  • Particle Filtering Applied to Musical Tempo Tracking 

    Unknown author (2004-11-07)
    This paper explores the use of particle filters for beat tracking in musical audio examples. The aim is to estimate the time-varying tempo process and to find the time locations of beats, as defined by human perception. ...

  • Particle Filtering for Joint Symbol and Code Delay Estimation in DS Spread Spectrum Systems in Multipath Environment 

    Unknown author (2004-11-07)
    We develop a new receiver for joint symbol, channel characteristics, and code delay estimation for DS spread spectrum systems under conditions of multipath fading. The approach is based on particle filtering techniques and ...

  • Pedestrian localisation for indoor environments 

    Woodman, Oliver (University of CambridgeFaculty of Computer Science and Technology, 2010-11-16)
    Ubiquitous computing systems aim to assist us as we go about our daily lives, whilst at the same time fading into the background so that we do not notice their presence. To do this they need to be able to sense their ...

  • Phased Nonlinear Finite-Element Analysis of Precracked RC T-Beams Repaired in Shear with CFRP Sheets 

    Dirar, Samir; Lees, Janet Marillyn; Morley, Chris (American Society of Civil EngineersJournal of Composites for Construction, 2012-10-17)
    Phased nonlinear finite-element (FE) analyses were carried out to predict the behavior of precracked reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams repaired in shear with externally bonded (EB) carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) ...
