Beyond Directions: Symmetry‐Aware Rotation Sets for Triaxial Diffusion Encoding by Geometric Filter Optimization

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To improve the accuracy of diffusion‐weighted powder average signals for diffusion encoding with arbitrary b‐tensors. Methods We identify an intrinsic dihedral (D2$$ {D}_2 $$) symmetry of diffusion signals for arbitrary diffusion encoding, which defines their natural signal space (a quotient of 3D rotations).

Home and away: allometry and climate drive morphology of European rabbits in their native and introduced range

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions shape phenotypic evolution by driving adaptations that optimise organismal function. Invasive species provide valuable systems to study these processes, as they often encounter novel climatic conditions in their introduced ranges. The European rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus, native to the Iberian Peninsula, has established populations

Timelike surfaces with Bertrand geodesic curves in Minkowski 3–space

open access: yesAIP Advances
Geodesic curves on a surface play an essential role in reasonable implementation. A curve on a surface is a geodesic curve if its principal normal vector is aligned with the surface normal. Using the Serret–Frenet frame, the timelike (TL) surfaces can be

On Momentum Operators Given by Killing Vectors Whose Integral Curves Are Geodesics

open access: yesPhysics, 2022
The paper considers momentum operators on intrinsically curved manifolds. Given that momentum operators are Killing vector fields whose integral curves are geodesics, the corresponding manifold is flat or of the compact type with positive constant sectional curvature and dimensions equal to 1, 3, or 7. Explicit representations of momentum operators and

Sliding Mode Control in Aerospace Applications: A Survey

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sliding mode control (SMC) enjoys robustness to matched and unmatched (in the case of minimum phase input‐output dynamics) bounded perturbations, and finite time convergence. Second‐order and higher‐order sliding mode control systems (2‐SMC/HOSMC) retain all the advantages of sliding mode control, but in addition can be applied to systems of ...

Modernizing environmental data management for ecological research, management, and conservation at regional scales

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We developed a web GIS system that delivers geospatial data for Wyoming and the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) using cloud‐optimized formats and open‐source tools to support regional ecological research and management. Using pronghorn as an example, we combined observed locations with environmental covariates from our geospatial library to map ...

Is the rent too high? Land ownership and monopoly power

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Pricing power in real estate markets can reduce housing supply and redevelopment relative to the social optimum. We show how pricing power interacts with popular redevelopment subsidies and zoning regulations. Using building‐level rental income data from NYC, we find that increased concentration is correlated with increased rents.

Automating Archaeological Discovery: Assessing Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) Tools for Stone Wall Identification in Kweneng, South Africa

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The discovery of archaeological sites traditionally entails the utilisation of physically demanding exploration methodologies, including terrain surveying and the analysis of historical records. Recent technological developments have led to an increased use of non‐invasive remote sensing techniques, including Google Earth, LiDAR and aerial ...

Characterization of Isoclinic, Transversally Geodesic and Grassmannizable Webs

open access: yesAxioms
One of the most relevant topics in web theory is linearization. A particular class of linearizable webs is the Grassmannizable web. Akivis gave a characterization of such a web, showing that Grassmannizable webs are equivalent to isoclinic and ...
