Grasshopper Avoidance of Patterns
The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2016 Motivated by a geometrical Thue-type problem, we introduce a new variant of the classical pattern avoidance in words, where jumping over a letter in the pattern occurrence is allowed. We say that pattern $p\in E^+$ occurs with jumps in a word $w=a_1a_2\ldots a_k \in A^+$, if there exist a non-erasing morphism $f$ from $E^*$ to $A^*$ and a sequence ...

Micropatterned Surfaces with Unidirectional Wetting Properties for Liquid Transport
Small Structures, EarlyView.Micropatterned surfaces that guide droplets in a single direction are gaining attention for their role in liquid transport. This review explores how surface designs enable such behavior, from gravity‐driven flow to stimulus‐responsive movement. It also discusses fabrication techniques, design challenges, and emerging strategies to advance directional ...

Shear wall plan layout optimization considering seismic loads
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Seismic force resistant structural design requires experience and time. Shear wall elements are generally used in concrete structures due to their high stiffness against horizontal forces. The aim of this study is to obtain optimum structural wall disposition by using building information modeling (BIM) technologies.

The early evolutionary history of neo-sex chromosomes in Neotropical grasshoppers, Boliviacris noroestensis (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Melanoplinae) [PDF]
, 2014 Neo-sex chromosomes are an important component of chromosome variation in Orthoptera, particularly South American Melanoplinae species, which have proven to be outstanding experimental model system to study the mechanism of sex chromosome evolution in ...
