This paper studies 3-D distributed network localization using mixed types of local relative measurements. Each node holds a local coordinate frame without a common orientation and can only measure one type of information (relative position,…
This paper investigates the localization problem of a network in 2-D and 3-D spaces given the positions of anchor nodes in a global frame and inter-node relative measurements in local coordinate frames. It is assumed that the local frames…
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate, by simple numerical simulations, the main transport properties of disordered electron systems.
One way to characterize configurations of points up to congruence is by considering the distribution of all mutual distances between points. This paper deals with the question if point configurations are uniquely determined by this…
Contraction analysis considers the distance between two adjacent trajectories. If this distance is contracting, then trajectories have the same long-term behavior. The main advantage of this analysis is that it is independent of the…
An adjoint-based procedure to determine weaknesses, or, more generally the material properties of structures is developed and tested. Given a series of force and deformation/strain measurements, the material properties are obtained by…
Transportation distance information is a powerful resource, but location records are often censored due to privacy concerns or regulatory mandates. We outline methods to approximate, sample from, and compare distributions of distances…
The basic arguments underlying the symplectic projector method are presented. By this method, local free coordinates on the constrait surface can be obtained for a broader class of constrained systems. Some interesting examples are…

The aim of this note is to present some recent results on the structure of the singular part of measures satisfying a PDE constraint and to describe some applications.
Location-based services in a wireless network require nodes to know their locations accurately. Conventional solutions rely on contention-based medium access, where only one node can successfully transmit at any time in any neighborhood. In…
A construction is presented that allows to produce subspace codes of long length using subspace codes of shorter length in combination with a rank metric code. The subspace distance of the resulting code, called linkage code, is as good as…
This paper studies the problem of integrated distributed network localization and formation maneuver control. We develop an integrated relative-measurement-based scheme, which only uses relative positions, distances, bearings, angles,…
Subject of this letter is the dynamics of a chain obtained performing the continuous limit of a system of links and beads. In particular, the probability distribution of the relative position between two points of the chain averaged over a…
The current development of digital image correlation, whose displacement uncertainty is well below the pixel value, enables one to better characterise the behaviour of materials and the response of structures to external loads. A general…
Different from most existing distributed localization approaches in static networks where the agents in a network are static, this paper addresses the distributed localization problem in dynamic networks where the positions of the agents…
