Investigating the Environmental Impact of Additive Construction: A Systematic Analysis of the Life Cycle Assessment Studies

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been identified as a potential catalyst for a paradigm shift within the construction industry, due to its capacity to enhance sustainability, reduce waste, and augment design flexibility. This study presents a systematic literature review (SLR) that explores the application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in ...

Quantum SU(2) and the Baum-Connes conjecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We review the formulation and proof of the Baum-Connes conjecture for the dual of the quantum group $ SU_q(2) $ of Woronowicz. As an illustration of this result we determine the $ K $-groups of quantum automorphism groups of simple matrix ...

Information Dynamics and Learning in Complex Adaptive Systems: Toward a Transdisciplinary Framework

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article develops a framework for understanding learning and adaptation in complex adaptive systems. Drawing from neuroscience, systems theory, information theory and quantum field theory, it examines how information processing, plasticity and systemic coherence emerge from distributed, nonlinear and feedback‐driven interactions. It argues

A Robust Visual Inertial Odometry SLAM Considering Robot Self Dynamics

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, to deal with the dynamic SLAM problem, we investigate feature tracking and IMU preintegration in visual‐inertial odometry (VIO) and design a robust SLAM framework that explicitly considers robot self‐dynamics. We propose a self‐dynamics and IMU‐aided feature tracker to predict initial optical flow and an iterative refinement ...

Topos based homology theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
summary:In this paper we extend the Eilenberg-Steenrod axiomatic description of a homology theory from the category of topological spaces to an arbitrary category and, in particular, to a topos.

Using thermal death time models to analyze cold stress resistance across Drosophila species

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Chill susceptible insects such as Drosophila are vulnerable to progressive disruption of homeostasis during cold stress, and low‐temperature exposure is a key factor affecting their physiology and distribution.

Complete elliptic Fourier descriptor normalization and its application in quantitative morphological analysis

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Elliptic Fourier analysis (EFA) is often employed in geometric morphometrics (GM), but the normalization of elliptic Fourier descriptor (EFD) has persistently posed challenges for obtaining unique and comparable results, especially in the application of outline‐based GM methods, which limits the implementation in automated analysis of numerous,

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...
