Trabecular bone ontogeny of the human talus

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies of trabecular ontogeny may provide insight into the factors that drive healthy bone development. There is a growing understanding of how the juvenile skeleton responds to these influences; however, gaps in our knowledge remain. This study aims to identify ontogenetic trabecular patterns and regional changes during development within ...

Evaluation of Topology-Aware Broadcast Algorithms for Dragonfly Networks

2016 IEEE International Conference on Cluster Computing (CLUSTER), 2016
Two-tiered direct network topologies such as Dragonflies have been proposed for future post-petascale and exascale machines, since they provide a high-radix, low-diameter, fast interconnection network. Such topologies call for redesigningMPI collective communication algorithms in order to attain the best performance.

Multi‐method analysis for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of muscle fascicles from DiceCT datasets

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

Optimal Attack against Cyber-Physical Control Systems with Reactive Attack Mitigation

, 2017
This paper studies the performance and resilience of a cyber-physical control system (CPCS) with attack detection and reactive attack mitigation. It addresses the problem of deriving an optimal sequence of false data injection attacks that maximizes the ...

Volumetric buccal bone alterations at immediate implant sites with or without soft tissue augmentation: A 6‐month assessment

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study is part of a randomized controlled trial investigating the impact of soft tissue augmentation (STA) using subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) (immediate implant with subepithelial connective tissue graft [ICT] group) or acellular dermal matrix (ADM) (immediate implant with acellular dermal matrix [IAD] group ...

Cryostratigraphy of Rhythmic Segregated Ice in Colluvium and Implications for Permafrost Slope Stability

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The amount and stratigraphic setting of ground ice in permafrost slopes is a key control on the style and magnitude of permafrost mass wasting. Understanding the spatial and stratigraphic variations in ground ice distribution on permafrost slopes is therefore a fundamental property in assessing the stability of permafrost hillslopes.

NEFI: Network Extraction From Images

, 2015
Networks and network-like structures are amongst the central building blocks of many technological and biological systems. Given a mathematical graph representation of a network, methods from graph theory enable a precise investigation of its properties.

Estimation of Excess Ice and Thaw Settlement in Frozen Soil Using Industrial Computed Tomography

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost thaw can induce terrain instabilities and hazards as a result of the loss of excess ice from host sediments. The loss of excess ice threatens the integrity of infrastructure and drives ecosystem changes across northern landscapes. This study tests a nondestructive approach to estimate excess ice and potential thaw settlement using ...

Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.
