Quasicrystal Tilings in Three Dimensions and Their Empires

open access: yesCrystals, 2018
The projection method for constructing quasiperiodic tilings from a higher dimensional lattice provides a useful context for computing a quasicrystal’s vertex configurations, frequencies, and empires (forced tiles).

Methods for Calculating Empires in Quasicrystals

open access: yesCrystals, 2017
This paper reviews the empire problem for quasiperiodic tilings and the existing methods for generating the empires of the vertex configurations in quasicrystals, while introducing a new and more efficient method based on the cut-and-project technique ...

Non-Local Game of Life in 2D Quasicrystals

open access: yesCrystals, 2018
On a two-dimensional quasicrystal, a Penrose tiling, we simulate for the first time a game of life dynamics governed by non-local rules. Quasicrystals have inherently non-local order since any local patch, the emperor, forces the existence of a large ...

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.

Direct Atomic Force Microscopy Observation of DNA Tile Crystal Growth at the Single-Molecule Level [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2012
While the theoretical implications of models of DNA tile self-assembly have been extensively researched and such models have been used to design DNA tile systems for use in experiments, there has been little research testing the fundamental assumptions of those models.

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),

Well structured program equivalence is highly undecidable [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We show that strict deterministic propositional dynamic logic with intersection is highly undecidable, solving a problem in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. In fact we show something quite a bit stronger.

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.

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 ...

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 ...
