Fitting the Cusp Catastrophe in R: A cusp Package Primer

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2009
Of the seven elementary catastrophes in catastrophe theory, the “cusp” model is the most widely applied. Most applications are however qualitative. Quantitative techniques for catastrophe modeling have been developed, but so far the limited availability ...

Cusps and codes [PDF]

open access: yesMathematische Nachrichten, 2006
AbstractWe study a construction, which produces surfaces Y ⊂ ℙ3(ℂ) with cusps. For example we obtain surfaces of degree six with 18, 24 or 27 three‐divisible cusps. For sextics in a particular family of surfaces with up to 30 cusps the codes of these sets of cusps are determined explicitly. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Unfolding the Cusp-Cusp Bifurcation of Planar Endomorphisms [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, 2007
In many applications of practical interest, for example, in control theory, economics, electronics, and neural networks, the dynamics of the system under consideration can be modeled by an endomorphism, which is a discrete smooth map that does not have a uniquely defined inverse; one also speaks simply of a noninvertible map.

Hidden Cusps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper investigates a situation pointed out in a recent paper, in which a non-singular change of assembly mode of a planar 2-RPR-PR parallel manipulator was realized by encircling a point of multiplicity 4. It is shown that this situation is, in fact, a non-generic one and gives rise to cusps under a small perturbation.

Cusp algebras [PDF]

open access: yesPublicacions Matemàtiques, 2009
We consider simple cusp algebras, that is certain subalgebras of the algebra of holomorphic functions on a disk that are annihilated by some distributions living on a singleton. We determine when these algebras can be holized in two dimensions, and when these holizations are globally biholomorphic.

the pulsating cusp [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1990
Recent observations at the magnetopause and of the high‐latitude ionosphere, suggest that the cusp may be pulsed in nature. Specifically ground‐based observations in the dayside auroral oval reveal transient optical features accompanied by bursts of enhanced plasma flow.

On the Cusp [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Lifestyle Medicine, 2016
A new president is stepping into leadership at the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM). Opportunities abound. The fact that both diabetes and heart disease are reversible is a message that is not reaching the majority of the general public.

Climate security and a vulnerability model for conflict prevention: a systematic literature review focusing on African agriculture

open access: yesSustainable Earth Reviews, 2019
Background Climate change poses credible threats to the livelihoods of many. This paper addresses how climate change adaptation can help counter the increased risk of violent conflict that is associated with these climatic changes.

Double cusp encounter by Cluster: double cusp or motion of the cusp? [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2013
Abstract. Modelling plasma entry in the polar cusp has been successful in reproducing ion dispersions observed in the cusp at low and mid-altitudes. The use of a realistic convection pattern, when the IMF-By is large and stable, allowed Wing et al. (2001) to predict double cusp signatures that were subsequently observed by the DMSP spacecraft.

Strategies for Applying the Circular Economy to Prefabricated Buildings

open access: yesBuildings, 2018
In this paper, a circular-economy framework is applied to the prefabricated building sector to explore the environmental advantages of prefabrication in terms of reduction, reusability, adaptability, and recyclability of its components.
