A Coarse Geometric Approach to Graph Layout Problems

Journal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We define a range of new coarse geometric invariants based on various graph–theoretic measures of complexity for finite graphs, including treewidth, pathwidth, cutwidth and bandwidth. We prove that, for bounded degree graphs, these invariants can be used to define functions which satisfy a strong monotonicity property, namely, they are ...

Effects of testosterone and high‐dose anabolic steroids on orthodontic‐induced bone remodeling and root resorption: An animal study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigates the impact of disruptions in testosterone levels on bone remodeling, root resorption, and periodontal ligament (PDL) during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in a pubertal male rat model. Methods Testosterone deficiency was induced through orchiectomy, and the anabolic‐androgenic steroid (AAS, testosterone ...

Generalized Moran sets Generated by Step-wise Adjustable Iterated Function Systems

, 2018
In this article we provide a systematic way of creating generalized Moran sets using an analogous iterated function system (IFS) procedure. We use a step-wise adjustable IFS to introduce some variance (such as non-self-similarity) in the fractal limit ...

Coal Mining as a Driver of Land Use and Land Cover Change and Degradation: A Case in Moatize City, Mozambique

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...

Combining the Underwater Vision Profiler 6 with sediment traps to measure in situ velocity of marine particles

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Particles sinking from the surface to the deep ocean play a key role in the biological carbon pump, whose efficiency depends partly on sinking velocities. Over the last decade, in situ imaging has enabled critical advances in our understanding of particle dynamics in the ocean.

A comparison of different evolutive niching strategies for identifying a set of selfsimilar contractions for the IFS inverse problem

Journal of Computer Science and Technology, 2001
The key problem in fractal image compression is that of obtaining the IFS code (a set of linear transformations)which approximates a given image with a certain prescribed accuracy (inverse IFS problem).In this paper,we analyze and compare the performance

On the analyzing of bifurcation properties of the one‐dimensional Mackey–Glass model by using a generalized approach

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
The goal of this work is to look at how a nonlinear model describes hematopoiesis and its complexities utilizing commonly used techniques with historical and material links. Based on time delay, the Mackey–Glass model is explored in two instances. To offer a range, the relevance of the parameter impacting stability (bifurcation) is recorded.

A Methodological Pathway for Supporting the Transition From Theory to Practice in Action‐Oriented Research for Transformative Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent decades, action‐oriented research has gained prominence in co‐producing actionable knowledge to drive transformative change toward sustainability. However, further methodological developments are needed to support the transition to the application phase of such knowledge.

Fluorescent Supramolecular Gels Based on D‐Sorbitol Derivatives

Small, EarlyView.
Sugar‐based fluorescent low‐molecular‐weight gelators (LMWGs) DNapS, DBTDS, and MCumS, prepared by a green, scalable route, form supramolecular gels in water, organic, and deep eutectic solvents. MCumS yields solvent‐dependent nanofibrous networks and viscoelastic injectable eutectogels.
