Large-scale 3D point clouds (LS3DPC) obtained by LiDAR scanners require huge storage space and transmission bandwidth due to a large amount of data. The existing methods of LS3DPC compression separately perform rule-based point sampling and…

We present ion-by-ion cooling efficiencies for low-density gas. We use Cloudy (ver. 08.00) to estimate the cooling efficiencies for each ion of the first 30 elements (H-Zn) individually. We present results for gas temperatures between 1e4…

A common approach to assess the performance of fire insulation panels is the component additive method (CAM). The parameters of the CAM are based on the temperature-dependent thermal material properties of the panels. These material…

Subsurface sequestration of CO2 has received attention from the global scientific community in response to climate change concerns due to higher concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere. Mathematical models have thus been developed to aid…
