Split Packing: Algorithms for Packing Circles with Optimal Worst-Case Density [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete & Computational Geometry, 2018
In the classic circle packing problem, one asks whether a given set of circles can be packed into a given container. Packing problems like this have been shown to be $\mathsf{NP}$-hard. In this paper, we present new sufficient conditions for packing circles into square and triangular containers, using only the sum of the circles' areas: For square ...

Sphere-Packing Modulated Space-Time Coding Using Non-Binary LDPC-Coded Iterative-Detection

open access: yes, 2008
A recently proposed Space-Time Block Coding (STBC) signal construction method that combines orthogonal design with sphere packing, referred to here as (STBC-SP), has shown useful performance improvements over Alamouti’s conventional orthogonal design. In

Prognosis of Long‐Term Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and the Impact of Combined Continuous Intravenous Sodium Infusion Therapy

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients requiring long‐term continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) generally have poor prognoses. This study evaluated whether adding continuous intravenous sodium infusion (cIVNa) is associated with improved hemodynamics and outcomes in patients undergoing long‐term CRRT for ≥ 7 days.

Wet packing of crushed rock fine aggregate

open access: yes, 2009
It is well known that the performance of concrete is dependent on the packing density of the aggregate. All existing methods of measuring the packing density of aggregate are carried out under dry condition.

ON THE HARD SPHERE MODEL AND SPHERE PACKINGS IN HIGH DIMENSIONS

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2019
We prove a lower bound on the entropy of sphere packings of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ of density $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9}(d\cdot 2^{-d})$. The entropy measures how plentiful such packings are, and our result is significantly stronger than the trivial lower bound ...

Numerical investigation of fiber orientations and homogeneity in powder bed fusion of fiber/polymer composites

open access: yesVirtual and Physical Prototyping, 2023
The packing characteristics of fiber/polymer powder in powder bed fusion additive manufacturing exhibit a high correlation with the mechanical behaviours of printed composite parts such as homogeneity and anisotropy.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

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 ...
