Mass determinations from gravitational lensing shear and the higher order estimator flexion are both subject to the mass-sheet degeneracy. Mass sheet degeneracy refers to a transformation that leaves the reduced shear and flexion invariant. In general, thi ...
Time–frequency analysis of the dynamics of different wake vorticity structures, generated from a triangular prism orientated with its apex edge against the incoming wind, is carried out. Time–frequency analysis of time-series obtained with hot-wire anemome ...
This thesis deals with the numerical modeling and simulation of granular media with large populations of non-spherical particles. Granular media are highly pervasive in nature and play an important role in technology. They are present in fields as diverse ...
We present a novel method to perform numerical integration over curved polyhedra enclosed by high-order parametric surfaces. Such a polyhedron is first decomposed into a set of triangular and/or rectangular pyramids, whose certain faces correspond to the g ...
For a set X of integer points in a polyhedron, the smallest number of facets of any polyhedron whose set of integer points coincides with X is called the relaxation complexity rc(X). This parameter was introduced by Kaibel & Weltge (2015) and captures the ...
We develop an analytical model to predict equilibrium shapes of two-component heterogeneous vesicles or capsules. Using a free energy functional including the bending energies of the two components and line tension contributions, the model describes shape ...
We investigate the diameter of a natural abstraction of the 1-skeleton of polyhedra. Even if this abstraction is more general than other abstractions previously studied in the literature, known upper bounds on the diameter of polyhedra continue to hold her ...
We investigate the diameter of a natural abstraction of the 1-skeleton of polyhedra. Although this abstraction is simpler than other abstractions that were previously studied in the literature, the best upper bounds on the diameter of polyhedra continue to ...
A new family of transition-metal-contg. phosphates ANa3M7(PO4)6, where A = K, Rb, Cs and M = Mn, Fe, Co, was synthesized via high-temp. (650-800°), solid state reactions. Sizable single crystals up to 1 cm (∼160 mg) were grown for structure and property ch ...
Given an integral polyhedron P subset of R-n and a rational polyhedron Q subset of R-n containing the same integer points as P, we investigate how many iterations of the Chvatal-Gomory closure operator have to be performed on Q to obtain a polyhedron conta ...
