Adaptive mesh and geodesically sliced Schwarzschild spacetime in 3+1 dimensions

open access: yes, 1996
We present first results obtained with a 3+1 dimensional adaptive mesh code in numerical general relativity. The adaptive mesh is used in conjunction with a standard ADM code for the evolution of a dynamically sliced Schwarzschild spacetime (geodesic ...

Multiblock Mesh Refinement by Adding Mesh Singularities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Several templates for 2D and 3D structured mesh refinement are presented. The templates have the property that the minimum number of irregular points or edges (mesh singularities) are added. For a given set of external division numbers a variety of interior meshes can be generated.

On the mesh nonsingularity of the moving mesh PDE method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The moving mesh PDE (MMPDE) method for variational mesh generation and adaptation is studied theoretically at the discrete level, in particular the nonsingularity of the obtained meshes.

A digital twin model incorporating generalized metabolic fluxes to identify and predict chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yesnpj Digital Medicine
We have developed a digital twin-based CKD identification and prediction model that leverages generalized metabolic fluxes (GMF) for patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM).

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

A short-term preliminary evaluation of ventral hernia repair using a new prosthetic mesh

open access: yesInternational Journal of Abdominal Wall and Hernia Surgery, 2021
BACKGROUND: Syneco® (W.L. Gore and Associates, Flagstaff, AZ) is a new permanent synthetic mesh made of a combination of an absorbable synthetic component and a permanent synthetic component that can be used intraperitoneally or within the abdominal wall

3D mesh refinement procedure using the bisection and rivara algorithms with mesh quality assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Mesh refinement procedures for the solution of three dimensional problems are described. The computational\ud domain is represented by an assembly of tetrahedral elements and the mesh refinement is acheived by the bisection\ud and Rivara methods using an

A distributed key establishment scheme for wireless mesh networks using identity-based cryptography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we propose a secure and efficient key establishment scheme designed with respect to the unique requirements of Wireless Mesh Networks. Our security model is based on Identity-based key establishment scheme without the utilization of a ...
