Various online and offline diagnostic methods are widely applied to provide early detections of any abnormality in exploitation. Furthermore, different sensors may also be applied to capture selected physical quantities that may be used to indicate the type of potential fault. The essential steps of the signal analysis regarding the technical condition assessment process may be listed as: signal measurement (using relevant sensors), processing, modelling, and classification. In the Special Issue entitled “Advances in Sensors and Sensing for Technical Condition Assessment and NDT”, we present the latest research in various areas of technology.Technology: general issuesbicsscpulse compressionscatteringattenuationinsulationultrasonic testingOLTCAE sensoracoustic emissionfeature extractionsupervised classificationmachine learningcontrast-enhanced ultrasoundmuscle perfusionNakagami parametercompounding Nakagami imaginglow-frequency sensorpower transformerlow-frequency noisegenetic algorithmgeometric layout of railway tracktrack axis identificationtramway looproute's polygonGNSS mobile measurementsvibroarthographyVAGknee jointspectral featuresfrequency analysisnon-invasive examinationlateral temperature gradienttemperature fieldboundary conditionssolar radiation intensitytemperature monitoringnon-destructive evaluationeddy current3D sensinginverse problemwavelet transformprincipal component analysisneural networkincubationspectrumimage processingROC curveinfrasound measurement systemwind turbineinfrasound correlation analysismeasuring scalethermoelastic deformationcoefficient of thermal expansionelastic waveslaser ultrasoundFizeau fiber interferometerdefect identificationhigh-current pulsescurrent measurementhigh-current shuntscircuit modelingRogowski coilelectrodynamic acceleratorsTechnology: general issuesBoczar Tomaszedt1318485Kunicki MichałedtWotzka DariaedtNagi ŁukaszedtKozioł MichałedtBoczar TomaszothKunicki MichałothWotzka DariaothNagi ŁukaszothKozioł MichałothBOOK9910557471903321Advances in Sensors and Sensing for Technical Condition Assessment and NDT3033315UNINA04588nam 2200709 450 991082719110332120230807194002.01-5017-0146-01-5017-0147-910.7591/9781501701474(CKB)3710000000498136(EBL)4189250(SSID)ssj0001562623(PQKBManifestationID)16212615(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001562623(PQKBWorkID)12161898(PQKB)10627894(StDuBDS)EDZ0001517327(MiAaPQ)EBC4189250(OCoLC)927140789(MdBmJHUP)muse46806(DE-B1597)478262(OCoLC)979743432(DE-B1597)9781501701474(Au-PeEL)EBL4189250(CaPaEBR)ebr11129087(CaONFJC)MIL869940(EXLCZ)99371000000049813620151223h20152015 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtccrThe diplomacy of migration transnational lives and the making of U.S.-Chinese relations in the Cold War /Meredith OyenIthaca, New York ;London, [England] :Cornell University Press,2015.©20151 online resource (321 p.)United States in the WorldIncludes index.1-5017-0014-6 Includes bibliographical references and index.Front matter --Contents --Acknowledgments --Introduction: The Floating Population and Foreign Policy --Part I.

Visa Diplomacy: The Taiwan Independence Movement and Changing U.S.-Chinese Relations --Conclusion: Coming in from the Cold --Note on Sources --Notes --IndexDuring the Cold War, both Chinese and American officials employed a wide range of migration policies and practices to pursue legitimacy, security, and prestige. They focused on allowing or restricting immigration, assigning refugee status, facilitating student exchanges, and enforcing deportations. The Diplomacy of Migration focuses on the role these practices played in the relationship between the United States and the Republic of China both before and after the move to Taiwan. Meredith Oyen identifies three patterns of migration diplomacy: migration legislation as a tool to achieve foreign policy goals, migrants as subjects of diplomacy and propaganda, and migration controls that shaped the Chinese American community. Using sources from diplomatic and governmental archives in the United States, the Republic of China on Taiwan, the People's Republic of China, and the United Kingdom, Oyen applies a truly transnational perspective. The Diplomacy of Migration combines important innovations in the field of diplomatic history with new international trends in migration history to show that even though migration issues were often considered "low stakes" or "low risk" by foreign policy professionals concerned with Cold War politics and the nuclear age, they were neither "no risk" nor unimportant to larger goals. Instead, migration diplomacy became a means of facilitating other foreign policy priorities, even when doing so came at great cost for migrants themselves.United States in the world.ChineseUnited StatesCold WarUnited StatesForeign relationsChinaChinaForeign relationsUnited StatesUnited StatesEmigration and immigrationGovernment policyChinaEmigration and immigrationChineseCold War.327.73051Oyen Meredith1978-1618363MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827191103321The diplomacy of migration3950018UNINA
