Understanding cationic polyelectrolyte thermogels with varying charge densities toward biomaterials design

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Cationic polyurethane thermogels with customizable charge density were developed, exhibiting enhanced pH‐responsiveness. This work elucidates how cationic charges influence self‐assembly and thermogelling, providing insights for designing smart biomaterials.

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Image segmentation method using fractal dimension and wavelet decomposition

, 2004
In this paper, a new method using the fractal dimension and wavelet decomposition is proposed to complete the image segmentation between sea and sky in the case of the variety of gray level caused by the reflection of the sunshine on the sea.

Bounds on the hausdorff dimension of a renormalisation map arising from an excitable reaction-diffusion system on a fractal lattice

, 2008
A renormalisation approach to investigate travelling wave solutions of an excitable reaction- diusion system on a deterministic fractal structure has recently been derived.

Advances in causal discovery methods for ecological time series

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in data collection technologies (e.g. automated sensor networks, satellite remote sensing, and high‐throughput sequencing) have greatly expanded the availability of ecological time series, enabling new opportunities for causal analyses in dynamic ecosystems.

Codimension formulae for the intersection of fractal subsets of Cantor spaces

, 2015
We examine the dimensions of the intersection of a subset E of an m-ary Cantor space Cm with the image of a subset F under a random isometry with respect to a natural metric.

A study on the fractal characteristics of displacement time-series during the evolution of landslides

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2016
Landslides are one of the major natural disasters that are frequently occurring in southwestern China. The main objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between failure of landslide and fractal dimension using displacement time-series ...
