Nonnegative curvature and conullity of the curvature tensor [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Global Analysis and Geometry, 2019
The conullity of a curvature tensor is the codimension of its kernel. We consider the cases of conullity two in any dimension and conullity three in dimension four. We show that these conditions are compatible with non-negative sectional curvature only if either the manifold is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^n$ or the universal cover is an isometric ...

Determination of a Representative and 3D-Printable Root Canal Geometry for Endodontic Investigations and Pre-Clinical Endodontic Training—An Ex Vivo Study

open access: yesDentistry Journal, 2023
Models of artificial root canals are used in several fields of endodontic investigations and pre-clinical endodontic training. They allow the physical testing of dental treatments, the operating of instruments used and the interaction between these ...

Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
In this paper, we study Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature. First, we obtain the expressions of Ricci curvature tensor and scalar curvature. Then, we characterize the Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature on by tensor analysis.

Ricci curvature for metric-measure spaces via optimal transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We dene a notion of a measured length space X having nonnegative N-Ricci curvature, for N 2 [1;1), or having1-Ricci curvature bounded below byK, forK2 R.

Curvature Change in Laser-Assisted Bending of Inconel 718

open access: yesPhysical Sciences Forum, 2022
Laser heating is industrially applied to facilitate plastic shaping, especially for materials difficult to form due to their high hardness or brittleness.

Curvature estimates for constant mean curvature surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesDuke Mathematical Journal, 2019
We have separated the original paper into two parts. This new posting is the first part which is self-contained and deals with extrinsic curvature estimates for embedded nonzero constant mean curvature disks.

Study on the Curvature Reducing Method of Non-linear Regression Model

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
The method to reduce the non-linear strength (curvature)of non-linear regression model was studied in this paper. Firstly, the reference point of the non-linear strength was analyzed.

Membrane curvature underlies actin reorganization in response to nanoscale surface topography

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Despite a large body of work, little is known about the origin or underlying mechanisms of how cells interact with surface topographic patterns, which has resulted in a primarily phenomenological approach in studying cell–nanotopography ...

The Graph Curvature Calculator and the Curvatures of Cubic Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Mathematics, 2019
We classify all cubic graphs with either non-negative Ollivier-Ricci curvature or non-negative Bakry-Émery curvature everywhere. We show in both curvature notions that the non-negatively curved graphs are the prism graphs and the Möbius ladders. We also highlight an online tool for calculating the curvature of graphs under several variants of these ...

Quantifying Efficiency of Sliding-Window Based Aggregation Technique by Using Predictive Modeling on Landform Attributes Derived from DEM and NDVI

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2019
Topographic features impact biomass and other agriculturally relevant observables. However, conventional tools for processing digital elevation model (DEM) data in geographic information systems have severe limitations. Typically, 3-by-3 window sizes are
