Parallel Vectors Extraction using Bézier Clipping

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we propose a novel local feature extraction algorithm for the parallel vectors (PV) operator. Our method is based on Bézier clipping, which is a bracketing‐based root finding method that is commonly‐used in computer‐aided geometric design.

Single Line Drawing Generation via Semantics‐Driven Optimization

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present a method for automatically generating single‐line drawings in vector format, guided by a text prompt or an input image. Our approach leverages score distillation sampling to optimize the parameters of a uniform rational B‐spline (URBS) curve, ensuring that the drawing consists of a single continuous stroke by design.

Particle Swarm Optimization of Non Uniform Rational B-Splines for Robot Manipulators Path Planning

Periodica Polytechnica Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2017
The path-planning problem is commonly formulated to handle the obstacle avoidance constraints. This problem becomes more complicated when further restrictions are added. It often requires efficient algorithms to be solved. In this paper, a new approach is proposed where the path is described by means of Non Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS for short ...

Sequence‐encoded determinants drive distinct early aggregation pathways and different structural outcomes in PNT1 fibrils across Henipavirus members

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Protein aggregation is increasingly recognized as a biologically relevant process in viral proteins, yet the molecular determinants governing such phenomena remain poorly understood. Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are ubiquitous in viral proteomes, where conformational plasticity not only enables functional diversity but also permits

Thermo‐Mechanical Topology Optimization: An Immersed FEM Level‐Set‐Based Approach

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 15, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a multi‐physics framework for topology optimization using an immersed level set‐finite element model. The work extends the capabilities of a recently developed immersed level‐set method to thermo‐mechanical problems, including coupling and material‐dependent properties.

The free vibration of the MEE sandwich microplate with the FG-CNTRC core using the MSGT

Journal of Advanced Engineering and Computation
This study deals with the free vibration of the sandwich microplate with the core made of functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composites (FG-CNTRC) and magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) face sheets.

End‐to‐End Deep Learning Framework for Freeform Metasurfaces via Non‐Uniform Rational B‐Splines Meta‐Atoms

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 15, 13 August 2026.
This work presents a NURBS‐enabled metasurface design framework that combines freeform meta‐atom parameterization with Transformer‐based deep learning. The unified mathematical representation expands geometric degrees of freedom while enabling efficient optical‐response prediction and inverse design.

Transfinite Elements Using Bernstein Polynomials

Axioms
Transfinite interpolation, originally proposed in the early 1970s as a global interpolation method, was first implemented using Lagrange polynomials and cubic Hermite splines.

Two‐Point Change Patterns of LDL‐Cholesterol and hs‐CRP and Risk of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Middle‐Aged and Older Chinese Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The associations of two‐point change patterns of low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) and high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hs‐CRP) with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) remain underexplored, particularly in Chinese populations.
