Abstract:
... There is rising research interest in consumers’ emotions elicited by foods. To this end, emotion lexicons as part of food-evoked emotion measurement methods have been developed. Though there are various methods and techniques for emotion measurement, verbal self-report on behalf of the consumer has been identified as the most direct means of assessing the experience of emotion. The focus of this r ...

Abstract:
... To identify different types of precipitates and their composition, analytical electron tomography analysis on a needle-shaped sample was performed. Three-dimensional chemical maps from each element in a high alloyed steel are acquired and the resulting elemental maps are jointly reconstructed. Since analytical electron tomography data suffers from noise, total generalized variation regularization ...

Abstract:
... INTRODUCTION: The Sniffin’ Sticks threshold test is widely used to assess olfactory threshold due to its high reliability and validity. Nevertheless, this test procedure is quite long with an average duration of 10 to 20 min. In study designs that require multiple olfactory threshold tests on short intervals, this could exhaust participants. To counteract this limitation, we developed the informed ...

We have examined the electronic structure and optical properties of intermetallic IrSn₄ for three polymorphic modifications, α-IrSn₄, β-IrSn₄, and γ-IrSn₄, utilizing the first-principles PAW-PBEsol-GGA and FP-LAPW-LSDA methods. The obtained electronic structure data reveal clear-cut differences between α-IrSn₄ and the remaining morphs. This observation may be used to explain the appearance of supe ...

Abstract:
... Two main difficulties for the accurate direction of arrival (DOA) estimation in a distributed sensor system are grating lobes and system synchronization. Different from the traditional phased array system based on single carrier frequency, this paper designs a novel architecture for distributed sensor system using dual carrier frequency measurements. Both two carrier frequencies are combined and t ...

Abstract:
... Tannins are the molecules that are responsible for the astringency perceptions of wines. However, the mechanisms by which tannins influence the astringency perceptions of wines remain unclear. In the current study, the grape varieties had greater effects on the tannin profiles than did the aging periods. The percentage of galloylated flavanols (%G) was positively correlated with drying astringency ...

Abstract:
... Three-electrode measurements are valuable to the understanding of the electrochemical processes in a battery system. However, their application in lithium–sulfur chemistry is difficult due to the complexity of the system and thus rarely reported. Here, we present a simple three-electrode cell format with relatively good life time and minimum interference with the cell operation. ...

Abstract:
... Large networks producing frequent atmospheric radionuclide measurements have additional power in characterizing and localizing radionuclide release events over the analysis performed with four or fewer radionuclide measurements. However, adding unrelated measurements to an analysis dilutes that advantage, unless source-term models are extended to account for this complexity. A key steppingstone to ...

Sm doping effectively suppresses the excess Ge vacancies, which is confirmed by positron annihilation measurements. As a result, the intrinsic hole carrier concentration is tuned to the optimum value in GeTe, leading to improvemen ...

Most lightning location networks obtain the position results by optimizing the goodness of fit to determine that all combinatorial time differences of arrivals (TDOAs) are due to a common discharge. This paper proposes a three-dimensional (3D) lightning location method based on range difference (RD) space projection. The proposed method projects all the measurements into the RD space, which has th ...
