Metric Dimension for Gabriel Unit Disk Graphs is NP-Complete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We show that finding a minimal number of landmark nodes for a unique virtual addressing by hop-distances in wireless ad-hoc sensor networks is NP-complete even if the networks are unit disk graphs that contain only Gabriel edges.

CFD analysis and experimental comparison of novel roof tile shapes

open access: yesPropulsion and Power Research, 2017
In tiled pitched roofs, a ventilated layer reduces the heat transfer between tiles and roof structure by means of natural and forced convection, thereby also reducing the cooling energy requirement.

Tunable Digital Material Properties of 3D Voxel Printers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Digital materials are composed of many discrete voxels placed in a massively parallel layer deposition process, as opposed to continuous (analog) deposition techniques.

Ambiente térmico no interior de modelos de galpões avícolas em escala reduzida com ventilação natural e artificial dos telhados Thermal environment inside models of poultry housings in reduced scale with natural and artificial ventilated roofs

open access: yesEngenharia Agrícola, 2005
O presente trabalho teve o objetivo de avaliar o ambiente térmico no interior de modelos físicos de galpões avícolas construídos em escala reduzida (1:10). O conforto térmico foi avaliado por meio do Índice de Temperatura do Globo Negro e Umidade (ITGU),

Elusive extremal graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We study the uniqueness of optimal solutions to extremal graph theory problems. Lovasz conjectured that every finite feasible set of subgraph density constraints can be extended further by a finite set of density constraints so that the resulting set is ...

Undecidability of the Spectral Gap (full version)

open access: yes, 2020
We show that the spectral gap problem is undecidable. Specifically, we construct families of translationally-invariant, nearest-neighbour Hamiltonians on a 2D square lattice of d-level quantum systems (d constant), for which determining whether the ...

Trainyard is NP-Hard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recently, due to the widespread diffusion of smart-phones, mobile puzzle games have experienced a huge increase in their popularity. A successful puzzle has to be both captivating and challenging, and it has been suggested that this features are somehow ...

A Toom rule that increases the thickness of sets [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Toom's north-east-self voting cellular automaton rule R is known to suppress small minorities. A variant which we call R^+ is also known to turn an arbitrary initial configuration into a homogenous one (without changing the ones that were homogenous to ...

Cooling Effectiveness of a Data Center Room under Overhead Airflow via Entropy Generation Assessment in Transient Scenarios

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
Forecasting data center cooling demand remains a primary thermal management challenge in an increasingly larger global energy-consuming industry. This paper proposes a dynamic modeling approach to evaluate two different strategies for delivering cold air

SiPMs for cryogenic temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The DarkSide-20k collaboration is preparing to equip 20 m^2 of SiPMs working in liquid argon at 86 K for the direct search of WIMPs. The collaboration had to solve many technological aspects, such as the development of SiPM optimized for operation in ...
