Hsu-Nielsen source acoustic emission data on a concrete block.

Data presented in this paper are utilized in the paper entitled "Acoustic Emission Bayesian Source Location: Onset Time Challenge" [1]. Hsu-Nielsen source which also known as pencil lead break (PLB), is an artificial method of generating acoustic emission (AE) signals, which can roughly represent an acoustic emission damage source. The data in this paper represent AE signals emitted by conducting PLBs on a concrete block.

A probabilistic approach for estimating water permeability in pressure-driven membranes.

A probabilistic approach is proposed to estimate water permeability in a cellulose triacetate (CTA) membrane. Water transport across the membrane is simulated in reverse osmosis mode by means of non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Different membrane configurations obtained by an annealing MD simulation are considered and simulation results are analyzed by using a hierarchical Bayesian model to obtain the permeability of the different membranes.
