3D Smith chart constant quality factor semi-circles contours for positive and negative resistance circuits

The article firstly proves that the constant quality factor (Q) contours for passive circuits, while represented on a 2D Smith chart, form circle arcs on a coaxal circle family. Furthermore, these circle arcs represent semi-circles families in the north he ...

Quasi-stationary flow structure in turbidity currents

Giovanni De Cesare, Shun Nomura

A turbidity current is a particle-laden current driven by density differences due to suspended sediment particles. Turbidity currents can transport large amounts of sediment down slopes over great distances, and play a significant role in fluvial, lake and ...

Fundamental Limits for Implanted Antennas: Maximum Power Density Reaching Free Space

Anja Skrivervik, Zvonimir Sipus

Medical implants with communication capability are becoming increasingly popular with today’s trends to continuously monitor patient’s condition. This is a major challenge for antenna designers since the implants are inherently small and placed in a commun ...

Distinct distances between points and lines

Frank de Zeeuw, Adrian Claudiu Valculescu, Shakhar Smorodinsky

We show that for m points and n lines in R-2, the number of distinct distances between the points and the lines is Omega(m(1/5)n(3/5)), as long as m(1/2)

A statistical shape model to predict the premorbid glenoid cavity

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Steve Michel Berger, Daniel Abler, Philippe Büchler

Background: This study proposes a method for inferring the premorbid glenoid shape and orientation of scapulae affected by glenohumeral osteoarthritis (OA) to inform restorative surgery. Methods: A statistical shape model (SSM) built from 64 healthy scapul ...

Distinct Distances on Algebraic Curves in the Plane

János Pach, Frank de Zeeuw

Let S be a set of n points in R-2 contained in an algebraic curve C of degree d. We prove that the number of distinct distances determined by S is at least c(d)n(4/3), unless C contains a line or a circle. We also prove the lower bound c(d)' min{m(2/3)n(2/ ...
