On the durability of surgical masks after simulated handling and wear

Jian Wang, Véronique Michaud, Vincent Marc Varanges, Baris Çaglar, Yann Albert Gérard Lebaupin, René M. Rossi

After the spread of COVID-19, surgical masks became highly recommended to the public. They tend to be handled and used multiple times, which may impact their performance. To evaluate this risk, surgical masks of Type IIR were submitted to four simulated tr ...

Effects of item distinctiveness on the retrieval of objects and object-location bindings from visual working memory

Yury Markov

Visual working memory (VWM) is prone to interference from stored items competing for its limited capacity. Distinctiveness or similarity of the items is acknowledged to affect this competition, such that poor item distinctiveness causes a failure to discri ...

Comparison of high-throughput sequencing data compression tools

Marco Mattavelli, Claudio Paolo Alberti

High-throughput sequencing (HTS) data are commonly stored as raw sequencing reads in FASTQ format or as reads mapped to a reference, in SAM format, both with large memory footprints. Worldwide growth of HTS data has prompted the development of compression ...

Probable nature of higher-dimensional symmetries underlying mammalian grid-cell activity patterns

Alexander Mathis

Lattices abound in nature—from the crystal structure of minerals to the honey-comb organization of ommatidia in the compound eye of insects. These arrangements provide solutions for optimal packings, efficient resource distribution, and cryptographic proto ...

A Comprehensive Framework for Rendering Layered Materials

Wenzel Alban Jakob

We present a general and practical method for computing BSDFs of layered materials. Its ingredients are transport-theoretical models of isotropic or anisotropic scattering layers and smooth or rough boundaries of conductors and dielectrics. Following expan ...

Cyclic demand at the shell-bottom connection of unanchored steel tanks

Alain Nussbaumer, Gary Scott Prinz, Gustavo Cortes

Gasoline and other oil byproducts are commonly stored in steel tanks that rest on ground without any anchorage. Under strong motion, the impulsive mass of the contained liquid generates a moment about the base of the tank capable of causing partial uplift ...

Optimistic Algorithms for Partial Database Replication

Nicolas Schiper, Rodrigo Malta Schmidt, Fernando Pedone

In this paper, we study the problem of partial database replication. Numerous previous works have investigated database replication, however, most of them focus on full replication. We are here interested in genuine partial replication protocols, which req ...
