On the Glide of 3x+1 Problem

open access: yes, 2017
For any positive integer $n$, define an iterated function $$ f(n)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} n/2, & \mbox{$n$ even,} \\ 3n+1, & \mbox{$n$ odd.} \end{array} \right. $$ Suppose $k$ (if it exists) is the lowest number such that $f^{k}(n)

Beyond goniometry: 3D digital twinning of droplets from a single image

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
We present a method to produce physics‐informed three‐dimensional digital twins of droplets from a single image for wettability analyses. We validate the method with goniometry and demonstrate its capabilities with advancing‐receding contact angle measurements, irregularly shaped droplets, and multi‐droplet systems, indicating strong potential for in ...

Tumor‐Mimic Artificial Cell Integrated With In Situ Synthetic Biology for Testing of Antitumor Drug Sensitivity

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
A biomimetic artificial cell model platform integrating in situ synthetic biology is developed, which can show antitumor drug response to simulated cells derived from cell membranes of different tumor cells. It has excellent performance in indicating the curative effect of drugs at the cellular level and provides a novel approach for enhancing the ...

Benford's law, values of L-functions and the 3x+1 problem [PDF]

open access: yesActa Arithmetica, 2005
We show the leading digits of a variety of systems satisfying certain conditions follow Benford's Law. For each system proving this involves two main ingredients. One is a structure theorem of the limiting distribution, specific to the system. The other is a general technique of applying Poisson Summation to the limiting distribution.

Calyx and epicalyx morphology in Indian Hibiscus (Malvaceae) and its taxonomic importance

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Hibisceae is one of the largest tribes in Malvaceae, having a diverse floral morphology. The genus Hibiscus shows a wide range of evolutionary patterns in calyx and epicalyx morphology. Genera like Abelmoschus, Azanza, Gossypium, Hibiscus,and Thespesia are separated on the basis of calyx and epicalyx morphology, meaning that the calyx and epicalyx have

Reconstructing a set from its subset sums: $2$-torsion-free groups

open access: yesDiscrete Analysis
A famous conjecture in graph theory, asked by Kelly (1957) and Ulam (1960) and now known as the reconstruction conjecture, states that every graph with $n\geq 3$ vertices is determined up to isomorphism by the multiset of induced subgraphs with $n-1 ...

Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Critical Review of Brazil Disk Techniques for Tensile Strength Characterization With an Emphasis on High Explosive Materials

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mechanical properties are a critical performance metric for many high explosive (HE) materials and tensile strength properties are particularly important. Direct tensile measurements using dogbone shaped samples are the gold standard but they have the disadvantage that they are fairly large and require samples machined from billets.

Network Latency Estimation for Telesurgery Using Deep Reinforcement Learning

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Overview of the proposed two‐stage deep reinforcement learning framework for network latency prediction in telesurgery. The pipeline includes data collection from simulated catheter navigation sessions (Philippines–Botswana), feature engineering, DQN‐based direction prediction (85.8% accuracy), direction‐to‐value transformation, and value forecasting ...
