An updated auroral conductance module is built for global models, using nonlinear regression & empirical adjustments to span extreme events., Expanded dataset raises the ceiling of conductance values, impacting the ionospheric potential dB/dt & dB predictions during extreme events., and Application of the expanded model with empirical adjustments refines the conductance pattern, and improves dB/dt predictions significantly.

These data were produced in an attempt to characterize the turning and steering behaviors of 1-DoF multi-legged (hexpedal in this case) robots. Such turning behaviors require sliding contact points.
All the data is provided in a single, large .csv.gz file (416256 rows); additional details and example code in the README
Contemporary material characterisation techniques that leverage deformation fields and the weak form of the equilibrium equations face challenges in the numerical solution procedure of the inverse characterisation problem. As material models and descriptions differ, so too must the approaches for identifying parameters and their corresponding mechanisms. The widely-used Ogden material model can be comprised of a chosen number of terms of the same mathematical form, which presents challenges of parsimonious representation, interpretability, and stability. Robust techniques for system identification of any material model are important to assess and improve experimental design, in addition to their centrality to forward computations. Using fully 3D displacement fields acquired in silicone elastomers with our recently-developed magnetic resonance cartography (MR-u) technique on the order of ~20,000 points per sample, we leverage PDE-constrained optimisation as the basis of variational system identification of our material parameters. We incorporate the statistical F-test to maintain parsimony of representation. Using a new, local deformation decomposition locally into mixtures of biaxial and uniaxial tensile states, we evaluate experiments based on an analytical sensitivity metric, and discuss the implications for experimental design.
This repository contains the acquired data and MRI processing code used in this work.
This data and scripts are meant to test and show that seizure onset dynamics can be modulated using anti-epileptic drugs. A zip file is included that contains all waveform data, MATLAB processing scripts, and metadata. The MATLAB scripts allow for visual review validation and objective feature analysis. The file includes various README files explaining the scripts and their relationships in greater detail.
This set of Madymo models were setup with a convertible seat and the HIII 3YO child ATD model. Both FMVSS 213 and captain chair were simulated with varied vehicle interior (sedan vs. minivan) and car seat installation methods (LATCH vs. 3pt belt). Although the models provided here only represent the frontal crash condition, simulations with a wide range of impact directions can be simulated.
The research analyzed the response of nine PNI RM3100 magnetometers to radiation doses expected during a Europa lander mission. The radiation levels are drawn from the Europa Lander Science Definition Team report ( https://europa.nasa.gov/resources/58/europa-lander-study-2016-report). The sensors were tested up to a total ionization dose (TID) level of 500 kRad.

These data were produced for ARO W911NF-14-1-0573 "Morphologically Modulated Dynamics" and ARO MURI W911NF-17-1-0306 "From Data-Driven Operator Theoretic Schemes to Prediction, Inference, and Control of Systems" to explore the trade-offs between various oscillator coupling models in modeling multilegged locomotion of Multipod robots with 6,8,10 and 12 legs. The data is stored in .csv.gz files, one file for each robot morphology. Details of how to run the processing code on the raw dataset to generate the processed files found here, as well as example code for loading the data found here, are in the README. This dataset is self contained and can be used on its own without running any of the provided code.

- A semi-physical global modeling approach is used to estimate diffuse & discrete sources of auroral precipitation during the Galaxy15 event.
- Diffuse sources contribute 74% of the total auroral power. Discrete sources are strongly driven by activity and can contribute up to 61%.
- Broadband precipitation contributes 31% of the auroral Pedersen conductance playing a significant role in ionospheric electrodynamics.

This dataset contains the videos used for https://doi.org/10.7302/m05a-0d90 (the "raw" motion tracking dataset), and is intended to be unpacked into the same directory tree. The data were produced for ARO W911NF-14-1-0573 "Morphologically Modulated Dynamics" and ARO MURI W911NF-17-1-0306 "From Data-Driven Operator Theoretic Schemes to Prediction, Inference, and Control of Systems" to explore the trade-offs between various oscillator coupling models in modeling multilegged locomotion. The data were also used extensively in examining multi-contact slipping, in the studying the influence of number of legs on otherwise identical locomotion patterns, and in the use of geometric mechanics models for multilegged locomotion. Folder and file names encode the meta-data, with names following an informative naming convention documented in the README.
