Volume Quantization with Flexible Singularities for Hexahedral Meshing
Abstract We present a novel algorithm for quantization and subsequent hexahedral mesh generation from seamless volumetric maps. Quantization is the process of choosing integers that represent the numbers of hexahedral elements to be placed in each region of the volume, and transforming the seamless map into an integer‐grid map matching that choice ...

Dynamic route planning for emergency escape in coal mines using a Dijkstra-ACO hybrid algorithm
Emergency escape route planning in coal mines must adapt promptly to the changing underground environment. Traditional methods, relying on static networks with fixed weights, lack the flexibility needed for real-time adjustments in response to dynamic ...

Water availability and land‐use shape the diversity of Odonata in the Middle East
Odonata diversity in the Middle East depends on the availability of long‐lasting waters, emphasizing the importance of preserving stable aquatic habitats for biodiversity conservation under climate change‐driven droughts. Agricultural expansion is associated with increased Odonata species richness, but overall trait diversity remains limited ...

Well‐preserved heathlands of NW Italy are the main overwintering habitat of Sympecma paedisca, while grassy margins in farmland are used only in summer and are avoided from autumn onwards. Grassy margins in farmland act as corridors during the species' migrations between its breeding (ricefields) and overwintering (lowland heathlands) grounds ...
