An Intuitive Approach to Geometric Continuity for Parametric Curves and Surfaces (Extended Abstract) [PDF]
, 1985 The notion of geometric continuity is extended to an arbitrary order for curves and surfaces, and an intuitive development of constraints equations is presented that are necessary for it. The constraints result from a direct application of the univariate

Geometric Morphometrics of Hominoid Infraspinous Fossa Shape [PDF]
The Anatomical Record, 2014 ABSTRACTRecent discoveries of early hominin scapulae from Ethiopia (Dikika, Woranso‐Mille) and South Africa (Malapa) have motivated new examinations of the relationship between scapular morphology and locomotor function. In particular, infraspinous fossa shape has been shown to significantly differ among hominoids.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Mathematics, 2020 The local controlled generalized H-Bézier model is one of the most useful tools for shape designs and geometric representations in computer-aided geometric design (CAGD), which is owed to its good geometric properties, e.g., symmetry and shape adjustable

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Evaluating the geometric shape of a flying paraglider [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2014 This paper describes the photogrammetric approach to find the geometric shape of a paraglider. As its geometry is only available during the flight this had to be done under special conditions. The layout of the camera positions was limited by the strict

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Bat Species Comparisons Based on External Morphology: A Test of Traditional versus Geometric Morphometric Approaches. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 External morphology is commonly used to identify bats as well as to investigate flight and foraging behavior, typically relying on simple length and area measures or ratios. However, geometric morphometrics is increasingly used in the biological sciences
