Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...

A detailed redescription of a skeletally immature ‘Redondasaurus’ suggests ontogenetic transformations in the taxon mirror phytosaurian morphological evolution

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

Exponential cone-based OPF formulation for monopolar DC electrical networks

open access: yesResults in Control and Optimization
This paper presents a convex reformulation of the optimal power flow problem for monopolar DC distribution networks with integrated distributed energy resources, including photovoltaic generators, wind turbines, and battery storage systems.

Convex solutions of systems arising from Monge-Ampere equations

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2009
We establish two criteria for the existence of convex solutions to a boundary value problem for weakly coupled systems arising from the Monge-Ampère equations. We shall use fixed point theorems in a cone.

Density of infimum-stable convex cones [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1994
Let X be a compact Hausdorff space and let A be a linear subspace of C ( X ; R ) C(X;\mathbb {R}) containing the constant functions, and separating points from probability measures. Then the inf-lattice generated by A is uniformly dense in C ( X

New craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

The coelurosaur theropods of the Romualdo formation, early Cretaceous (Aptian) of Brazil: Santanaraptor placidus meets Mirischia asymmetrica

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

The Vector-Valued Functions Associated with Circular Cones

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
The circular cone is a pointed closed convex cone having hyperspherical sections orthogonal to its axis of revolution about which the cone is invariant to rotation, which includes second-order cone as a special case when the rotation angle is 45 degrees.

Efficient Computation of User Optimal Traffic Assignment via Second-Order Cone and Linear Programming Techniques

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Static traffic assignment aims to disclose the spatial distribution of vehicular flow over a transportation network subject to given traffic demands, and plays an essential role in transportation engineering.
