A discrete methodology for controlling the sign of curvature and torsion for NURBS [PDF]
This paper develops a discrete methodology for approximating the so-called convex domain of a NURBS curve, namely the domain in the ambient space, where a user-specified control point is free to move so that the curvature and torsion retains its sign ...

Curvature and solidification [PDF]
A method is presented for finding the osculating circle, and thus the curvature and the normal, of a curve defined by an array of partial volumes. This method is applied, within the framework of an enthalpy formulation, to the solutions of model equations that describe the motion of a front separating ice and supercooled water.

An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Maximal Graphs and Spacelike Mean Curvature Flows in Semi-Euclidean Spaces [PDF]
Two main results are proved. The first is for the maximal graph system in semi-Euclidean spaces. Existence of smooth solutions to the Dirichlet problem is proved, under certain assumptions on the boundary data.

APPLICATIONS OF THE SPACE DIFFERENTAL GEOMETRY AT THE STUDY OF PRODUCTION FUNCTIONS
This paper is a new onset about production functions. Because all papers on this subject use the projections of production functions on a plan, the analysis becomes heavy and less general in conclusions, and for this reason we made a treatment from the ...

Surface Roughness and Land Use in Slovenia
The article describes characteristics of several relief indicators (surface height, surface slope, surface aspect, height coefficient of surface roughness, slope coefficient of surface roughness, and aspect coefficient of surface roughness) relative to ...

Curves in the Lorentz-Minkowski plane with curvature depending on their position
Motivated by the classical Euler elastic curves, David A. Singer posed in 1999 the problem of determining a plane curve whose curvature is given in terms of its position. We propound the same question in the Lorentz-Minkowski plane, focusing on spacelike

The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This
