Minimizing movements along a sequence of functionals and curves of maximal slope

We prove that a general condition introduced by Colombo and Gobbino to study limits of curves of maximal slope allows us to characterize also minimizing movements along a sequence of functionals as curves of maximal slope of a limit functional. ...

An Improved Upper Bound for the ErdAs-Szekeres Conjecture

Let ES(n) denote the minimum natural number such that every set of ES(n) points in general position in the plane contains n points in convex position. In 1935, ErdAs and Szekeres proved that ES. In 1961, they obtained the lower bound , which they conjectur ...

Monitoring of strain profile variations in the RC slab of a short span railway bridge

Eugen Brühwiler, Vasileios Grigoriou

A novel monitoring scheme oriented towards the structural examination of reinforced concrete slabs subject to railway traffic action is presented. Monitoring is based on the measurement of the mean axial strain profile variation in the cross-section of the ...

Validation of NLFEA of reinforced concrete walls under bidirectional loading

Katrin Beyer, João Saraiva Esteves Pacheco de Almeida, Beatrice Belletti

Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis (NLFEA) of the inelastic behaviour of RC walls are often carried out for uni-directional (in-plane) horizontal cyclic loading. In this paper the behaviour of RC walls with different cross-sections (T-shaped and U-shaped) s ...

Orlicz regularity of the gradient of solutions to quasilinear elliptic equations in the plane

Linda Maria De Cave

Given a planar domain Omega, we study the Dirichlet problem {-divA(x, del v) = f in Omega, v = 0 on partial derivative Omega, where the higher-order term is a quasilinear elliptic operator, and f belongs to the Zygmund space L(log L)delta(log log log L)(be ...

Anisotropic transport properties of tungsten disulfide

László Forró, Richard Gaal, Helmuth Berger, Bálint Náfrádi, Andrea Pisoni, Jacim Jacimovic

Single crystals of WS2 were prepared by chemical vapor transport method using sulfur as a transport agent. Measurements of electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity as a function of temperature, along the in-plane and the out-of- ...

Similarity-Based Shape Priors for 2D Spline Snakes

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter

We present a new formulation of a shape space containing all continuously defined 2D spline curves up to a similarity transform of a reference shape. We are able to measure a distance between an arbitrary curve and the shape space itself. Our contribution ...

Funicular Explorations: Cardboard Box Curves Achieved through External Post-Tensioning

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Catherine Elvire L. De Wolf

Structural designers often face the challenge of developing forms optimal for a broad range of requirements, but inefficient in terms of structural behavior. In these cases, bending moments often occur under normal loading, resulting in oversized, inelegan ...

A distance measure for colored curves

Seyed Mohsen Moosavi Dezfooli

In some computer vision applications, matching between shapes and colors are required. There are lots of similarity measures for shapes, especially curves, but as far as we know there are not many that deal with shapes and colors at the same time. In this ...

Free Edge Lengths in Plane Graphs

Radoslav Fulek, Filip Moric

We study the impact of metric constraints on the realizability of planar graphs. Let G be a subgraph of a planar graph H (where H is the "host" of G). The graph G is free in H if for every choice of positive lengths for the edges of G, the host H has a pla ...
