Critical crack path assessments in failure investigations [PDF]

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2015
This paper presents a case study in which identification of the controlling crack path was critical to identifying the root cause of the failure. The case involves the rupture of a 30-inch (0.76 m) natural gas pipeline in 2010 that tragically led to ...

Hilberg Exponents: New Measures of Long Memory in the Process [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Information Theory 61(10):5716-5726, 2015, 2014
The paper concerns the rates of power-law growth of mutual information computed for a stationary measure or for a universal code. The rates are called Hilberg exponents and four such quantities are defined for each measure and each code: two random exponents and two expected exponents.

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae amino acid transporter Lyp1 has a broad substrate spectrum

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast Amino acid Transporter family members mediate the import of amino acids, ranging from substrate specialists to generalists. Here, we show that the specialist transporter, Lyp1, has a broader substrate spectrum than previously described, with affinity constants spanning from micromolar to millimolar.

Architected Lattices with a Topological Transition

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023
This article develops topological metamaterials showing multidirectional two‐step deformation under compression by embedding contact‐enabled topological mechanisms into lattice structures. Experiments on 3D‐printed 2D and 3D lattices and finite element simulations are conducted to demonstrate the working principle of the topological metamaterials.

Simplified Successive Cancellation Decoding of Polar Codes With Medium-Dimensional Binary Kernels

IEEE Access, 2018
A method is proposed, called l-formula, to design efficient successive cancellation (SC) decoding of polar codes with medium-dimensional binary kernels (dimensions up to 16).

Invariance of Lyapunov exponents and Lyapunov dimension for regular and irregular linearizations [PDF]

Nonlinear Dynamics, 2016, 2014
Nowadays the Lyapunov exponents and Lyapunov dimension have become so widespread and common that they are often used without references to the rigorous definitions or pioneering works. It may lead to a confusion since there are at least two well-known definitions, which are used in computations: the upper bounds of the exponential growth rate of the ...

Subpar reporting of pre‐analytical variables in RNA‐focused blood plasma studies

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical variables strongly influence the analysis of extracellular RNA (cell‐free RNA; exRNA) derived from blood plasma. Their reporting is essential to allow interpretation and replication of results. By evaluating 200 exRNA studies, we pinpoint a lack of reporting pre‐analytical variables associated with blood collection, plasma preparation ...

Quantified exponence constraints and the typology of exponence

Proceedings of the Annual Meetings on Phonology, 2018
Both phonologically conditioned suppletive allomorphy (PCSA) and multiple exponence (ME) involve one-to-many mapping between morphosyntactic information and phonological representations. Though they are usually viewed as separate phenomena, the plural marking of Lower Jubba Maay exhibits properties of both PCSA and ME, indicating that they are ...

Explicit predictability and dispersion scaling exponents in fully developed turbulence [PDF]

, 2005
We apply a simple method to provide explicit expressions for different scaling exponents in intermittent fully developed turbulence, that before were only given through a Legendre transform. This includes predictability exponents for infinitesimal and non infinitesimal perturbations, Lagrangian velocity exponents, and dispersion exponents.
