Distance Critical Graphs

Graphs and Combinatorics
Abstract In 1971, Graham and Pollak provided a formula for the determinant of the distance matrix of any tree on n vertices. Yan and Yeh reproved this by exploiting the fact that pendant vertices can be deleted from trees without changing the remaining entries of the distance matrix.

The ecclesiastical crisis of human sexuality: ‘Critical solidarity’, ‘critical distance’ or ‘critical engagement’

HTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies
The issue of human sexuality has many negative implications in African society. These arose in a number of contexts – legal, religious, cultural and societal – and were significantly divisive.

Critical Casimir effect for colloids close to chemically patterned substrates

, 2010
Colloids immersed in a critical or near-critical binary liquid mixture and close to a chemically patterned substrate are subject to normal and lateral critical Casimir forces of dominating strength.

String breaking in QCD: dual superconductor vs. stochastic vacuum model [PDF]

, 2005
Effects of dispersion of the chromoelectric field of the flux tube on the string-breaking distance are studied. The leading-order correction is shown to slightly diminish the result following from the Schwinger formula.

Spatial competition on the master-saliency map.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2013
The saliency map model (Itti & Koch, 2000) is a hierarchically structured computational model, simulating visual saliency processing. Iso-feature processing on feature maps and conspicuity maps precedes cross-dimensional signal processing on the ...

Parametric study on the effect of anchor�s geometry on the stress distribution and crack initiation direction in a concrete body

Fracture and Structural Integrity
This work deals with investigations of the stress field distribution around a steel anchor embedded in a concrete. Tensile loading - pulling force of the steel anchor is considered, which is very often connected to concrete cone failure.

Target Localization via Integrated and Segregated Ranging Based on RSS and TOA Measurements

Sensors, 2019
This work addresses the problem of target localization in adverse non-line-of-sight (NLOS) environments by using received signal strength (RSS) and time of arrival (TOA) measurements.

Interfacial fluctuations near the critical filling transition

, 2000
We propose a method to describe the short-distance behavior of an interface fluctuating in the presence of the wedge-shaped substrate near the critical filling transition.
