THE SECURITY IMPACT OF THE MILITARIZATION OF OUTER SPACE

open access: yesBulletin of "Carol I" National Defense University, 2022
The competition for the military conquest of outer space dominated the public agenda during the Cold War. It was the spatial side of the geopolitical competition between the capitalist West and the communist East.

Automorphisms of two-dimensional right-angled Artin groups

open access: yes, 2007
We study the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group A_G in the case where the defining graph G is connected and triangle-free. We give an algebraic description of Out(A_G) in terms of maximal join subgraphs in G and prove that the Tits ...

An Efficient Outer Space Algorithm for Generalized Linear Multiplicative Programming Problem

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Base on the outer space search and the branch-and-bound framework, this paper presents an efficient outer space branch-and-bound algorithm for globally solving generalized linear multiplicative programming problem.

Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.

Metric properties of Outer Space [PDF]

open access: yesPublicacions Matemàtiques, 2011
We define metrics on Culler-Vogtmann space, which are an analogue of the Teichmuller metric and are constructed using stretching factors. In fact the metrics we study are related, one being a symmetrised version of the other. We investigate the basic properties of these metrics, showing the advantages and pathologies of both choices.

An Inkjet‐Printed Platinum‐Based Temperature Sensing Element on Polyimide Substrates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An inkjet‐printed, meander‐structured, nanoparticle platinum‐based resistive temperature sensors on polyimide substrates are demonstrated as proof‐of‐concept. Optimized sintering at 250°C enables stable conductive structures. The Pt100‐ and Pt1000‐type sensors exhibit linear resistance–temperature characteristics with stable TCR in the 20°C–80°C range,

PING-PONG AND OUTER SPACE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Topology and Analysis, 2010
We prove that, if φ, ψ ∈ Out (FN) are hyperbolic iwips (irreducible with irreducible powers) such that 〈φ, ψ〉 ⊆ Out (FN) is not virtually cyclic, then some high powers of φ and ψ generate a free subgroup of rank two for which all nontrivial elements are again hyperbolic iwips.

Space suit [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
A pressure suit for high altitude flights, particularly space missions is reported. The suit is designed for astronauts in the Apollo space program and may be worn both inside and outside a space vehicle, as well as on the lunar surface.

A compactification of outer space which is an absolute retract [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We define a new compactification of outer space $CV_N$ (the \emph{Pacman compactification}) which is an absolute retract, for which the boundary is a $Z$-set. The classical compactification $\overline{CV_N}$ made of very small $F_N$-actions on $\mathbb{R}

Optimizing Post Friction Stir Welding Heat Treatment in Dissimilar Friction Stir Welded 6061/AlSi10MgMn Joints for Electrical Vehicle Battery Housing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Microstructural evolution and hardness optimization along the cross‐section of friction stir welded AA6061/AlSi10MgMn joints, for electric vehicle battery housings, were investigated. Postweld aging between 170°C and 220°C enhances hardness uniformity within the nugget zone.
