Handwriting authentication by envelopes of sound signature (2004)
Presentation / Conference
Li, F. (2004, August). Handwriting authentication by envelopes of sound signature. Presented at 17th International Conference on Pattern Recognition, 2004. ICPR 2004., Cambridge, United Kingdom

Frictions between a rigid-nib pen and paper result in audible sounds that are correlated with the dynamics of writing. Such writing-sounds were previously used as a biometric identity to achieve writer authentication. This paper presents an alternati...

Gain assisted propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on planar metallic waveguides (2004)
Journal Article
Nezhad, M., Tetz, K., & Fainman, Y. (2004). Gain assisted propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on planar metallic waveguides. Optics Express, 12(17), 4072-4079. https://doi.org/10.1364/OPEX.12.004072

The propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on metallic waveguides adjacent to a gain medium is considered. It is shown that the presence of the gain medium can compensate for the absorption losses in the metal. The conditions for existence of a su...

Making do - the eighth category of waste (2004)
Presentation / Conference
Koskela, L. (2004, August). Making do - the eighth category of waste. Presented at 12th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Helsingor, Denmark

The seminal authors on the Toyota Production System present a list of seven wastes. Even if many subsequent authors have suggested additions to this list, it is usually presented in its original form. This paper contends that there is a very common,...

Hydraulic characteristics of groundwater-fed open ditches in a peatland (2004)
Journal Article
Scholz, M., & Teppel, M. (2004). Hydraulic characteristics of groundwater-fed open ditches in a peatland. Ecological Engineering, 23(1), 29-45. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoleng.2004.06.011

The Environmental Ministry of Schleswig-Holstein has implemented a novel peatland management strategy in order to utilize the high nutrient retention potential of degenerated peatlands, and to improve the habitat at the same time. The effect of raise... Read More about Hydraulic characteristics of groundwater-fed open ditches in a peatland.
