Isoptics of log-aesthetic curves [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The log-aesthetic curve has a significant factor in the field of aesthetic design to meet the high industrial requirements. It has much exceptional property and a large number of research papers are published, since its introduction. It can be parametrized by tangential angle, and it is autoevolute, meaning that its evolute is also a log-aesthetic ...

Generalized Phase Tailoring of Arbitrary Orthogonal Polarizations in Meta‐Structure with High‐Order Geometric Symmetry

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A generalized methodology is proposed for Cm (m ≥ 3) meta‐structures to achieve independent phase control of arbitrary orthogonal polarizations. By integrating orientation tuning with structural tailoring, this approach extends spin‐based designs to polarization‐diverse wavefront engineering, enabling multi‐functional and high‐efficiency meta‐devices ...

Exploring Oral Health Related Quality of Life in Rett Syndrome Using Directed Content Analysis

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT No validated oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQOL) instrument currently exists for those with severe intellectual and developmental disabilities and who communicate non‐verbally. This qualitative study aimed to explore the domains that were important to the oral health‐related quality of life in individuals with Rett syndrome (RTT).

Hydrogen‐Bonded Framework With Low‐Density Hexagonal Network Structure Formed by Diethynylterphenyl‐Bridged Macrocyclic Hexacarboxylic Acid

open access: yesAsian Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
A single‐crystalline layered framework composed of a low‐density hydrogen‐bonded hexagonal network (HexNet) sheet was constructed using a C3‐symmetric π‐conjugated building block molecule possessing a macrocyclic core expanded by diethynylterphenyl linkers and peripheral six carboxy phenyl groups.

Timbral effects on consonance disentangle psychoacoustic mechanisms and suggest perceptual origins for musical scales

open access: yesNature Communications
The phenomenon of musical consonance is an essential feature in diverse musical styles. The traditional belief, supported by centuries of Western music theory and psychological studies, is that consonance derives from simple (harmonic) frequency ratios ...
