## Abstract Genome‐wide association studies succeeded in finding genetic variants associated with various phenotypes, but a large portion of the predicted genetic contribution to many traits remains unknown. One plausible explanation is that some missing variation is due to rare variants. Latest se

## Abstract We propose a new approach for the analysis of copy number variants (CNVs)for genome‐wide association studies in family‐based designs. Our new overall association test combines the between‐family component and the within‐family component of the family‐based data so that the new test stat

An innovative method for estimating the roll angle in two-wheeled vehicles is proposed. the roll angle is a crucial variable in the dynamics of two-wheeled vehicles, since it greatly affects the behaviour of the tire-road contact forces. hence, the capability of providing in real time a reliable measure of such quantity allows us to evaluate the dynamic properties of the vehicle and its tyres, and represents the enabling technology for the design of advanced braking, traction and stability control systems. the method proposed is based on a lowcost sensor configuration, suitable for industrial purposes. the validity of the proposed approach is assessed in a multi-body motorbike simulator environment and also on an instrumented test vehicle.
