Rationalization and construction-aware design dominate the issue of realizability of freeform architecture. The former means the decomposition of an intended shape into parts which are sufficiently simple and efficient to manufacture; the latter refers to ...
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a method for speeding up the Cadzow iterative denoising algorithm as a part of the Finite Rate of Innovation (FRI) processing and for decreasing its computational complexity. ...
In this study, we describe the seasonal variation in N-15 abundance in the litter of two Sphagnum species and four vascular plant species during 3 years of field decomposition in an Italian Alpine bog. Litter bags were periodically retrieved at the end of ...
This paper investigates the decomposition of three clayey structures (kaolinite, illite and montmorillonite) when thermally treated at 600 degrees C and 800 degrees C and the effect of this treatment on their pozzolanic activity in cementitious materials. ...
Various direct-ambient signal decompositions, applicable to two-channel stereophonic signals, have been proposed previously. Strategies to enhance these decompositions for multi-channel surround audio signals are not obvious. A method is proposed, which es ...

We present a model for the interplay between the fundamental phenomena responsible for the formation of nanostructures by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on patterned (001)/(111)B GaAs substrates. Experiments have demonstrated that V-groove quantum wires ...
We introduce the Multiplicative Update Selector and Estimator (MUSE) algorithm for sparse approximation in under-determined linear regression problems. Given ƒ = Φα* + μ, the MUSE provably and efficiently finds a k-sparse vector α̂ such that ∥Φα̂ − ƒ∥∞ ≤ ∥ ...
Al/SiC composites with volume fractions of SiC between 0.55 and 0.71 were made from identical tapped and vibrated powder preforms by squeeze casting (SC) and by two different setups for gas pressure infiltration (GPI), one that allows short (1-2 min) liqui ...
Peatlands represent massive global C pools and sinks. Carbon accumulation depends on the ratio between net primary production and decomposition, both of which can change under projected increases of atmospheric CO2 and N deposition. The decomposition of li ...
