An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Designing assemblies is a non-trivial task as a slight local modification on a part's geometry or its joining method could have a global impact on ...
In this work we give optimal, i.e., necessary and sufficient, conditions for integrals of the calculus of variations to guarantee the existence of solutions-both weak and variational solutions-to the associated L-2-gradient flow. The initial values are mer ...
We introduce the analog of Kramers-Kronig dispersion relations for correlators of four scalar operators in an arbitrary conformal field theory. The correlator is expressed as an integral over its "absorptive part", defined as a double discontinuity, times ...
Arch-shaped axially magnetized bodies tend to appear frequently in electrical machine analysis such as in the overhang parts of the classical radial-flux machines as well as in the main parts of the axial-flux machines. The calculation of the 3-D fields or ...
This work presents a novel methodology for speeding up the assembly of stiffness matrices for laminate composite 3D structures in the context of isogeometric and finite element discretizations. By splitting the involved terms into their in-plane and out-of ...
Tomographic additive manufacturing produces complex parts with a wide range of printable materials but remains limited in terms of resolution. Here, the authors tune the etendue of the light source and accurately control the photopolymerization kinetics us ...
We extend the celebrated Rothschild and Stiglitz (1970) definition of Mean-Preserving Spreads to a dynamic framework. We adapt the original integral conditions to transition probability densities, and give sufficient conditions for their satisfaction. We t ...
Sensitivity coefficients from Monte Carlo neutron transport codes have uncertainties that can affect nuclear data adjustments with integral experiments. This paper presents an extended version of Generalized Linear Least Squares (GLLS), called xGLLS, that ...
All mechanical systems, naturally occurring or human-produced, are subjected to friction and wear at the interface of solid constituents. Large portions of energy dissipation and loss of material, in every-day life and industrial applications alike, are du ...
Fundamental limits for implanted antennas should be able to evaluate the bounds on losses with the knowledge of physical limitations from antenna and tissue parameters. In this work, rules of thumb to assess losses of deeply implanted antennas are presente ...
