    Boron isotopes in tourmaline from hydrothermal ore systems

    No full text
    A new compilation of published data on the boron isotope composition of hydrothermal tourmaline is presented here. The database is provided in the excel file (Trumbull_etal_B-isotopes_Tourmaline_OreDeposits.xlsx) and contains ca. 4000 boron isotope analyses of tourmaline gathered from 57 publications (see References.docx), as well as additional information about the deposit, host rocks, age and temperature of the mineralization, particulars of tourmaline occurrence, etc. The file permits filtering based on the data and all other attributes. Some filter options that may be useful are: &ldquo;Publication&rdquo;, &ldquo;Deposit category&rdquo;, &ldquo;Country&rdquo;, &ldquo;Tourmaline host category&rdquo;, &ldquo;Tourmaline origin&rdquo;, &ldquo;Fluid source&rdquo;, &ldquo;Zoning&rdquo;, &ldquo;Mineralization&rdquo;. It is important to note that the article linked to this database (&ldquo;Application of boron isotopes in tourmaline to understanding hydrothermal ore systems&rdquo; by Trumbull et al.; doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oregeorev.2020.103682) discusses only tourmaline designated as &ldquo;Hydrothermal&rdquo; or &ldquo;Hydrothermal?&rdquo; in the database and reported in ISI-listed, English-language publications. This selection resulted in a total of 2622 d11B values reported in 49 publications. Cite this dataset Trumbull, Robert B.; Code&ccedil;o, Marta S.; Jiang, Shao-Yong; Palmer, Martin R.; Slack, John F.

    Measuring human-induced vibrations of civil engineering structures via vision-based motion tracking

    No full text
    We present a novel framework for measuring the body motion of multiple individuals in a group or crowd via a vision-based tracking algorithm, thus to enable studies of human-induced vibrations of civil engineering structures, such as floors and grandstands. To overcome the difficulties typically observed in this scenario, such as illumination change and object deformation, an online ensemble learning algorithm, which is adaptive to the non-stationary environment, is adopted. Incorporated with an easily carried and installed hardware, the system can capture the characteristics of displacements or accelerations for multiple individuals in a group of various sizes and in a real-world setting. To demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed system, measured displacements and calculated accelerations are compared to the simultaneous measurements obtained by two widely used motion tracking systems. Extensive experiments illustrate that the proposed system achieves equivalent performance as popular wireless inertial sensors and a marker-based optical system, but without limitations commonly associated with such traditional systems. The comparable experiments can also be used to guide the application of our proposed system

    Variations on the Author

    No full text
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation

    No full text
    The desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters

    John F. Kennedy telegram to Roosevelt

    No full text
    Jersey Homesteads (later the Borough of Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. President John F. Kennedy sent a telegram to the citizens of Roosevelt, New Jersey, apologizing for not being able to attend the memorial dedication in honor of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. (Jersey Homesteads became Roosevelt in 1945 in honor of the president.) President Kennedy expressed his gratitude to the people of Roosevelt for constructing the memorial, and commented that it will serve as a constant reminder of Roosevelt's good works
