Three popular methods for facial recognition are the Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Karhunen-Loeve Expansions, which is fundamentally a continuous form of PCA but...
The theory behind magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is utilized to present a 3-D solution to how the induced magnetic field changes with respect to time. Several MHD-based assump- tions are made to simplify the coupling of Maxwell’s equations with two constitutive laws and Ohm’s law. The velocity field is assumed to be...
