On C$^2$-smooth Surfaces of Constant Width

open access: yesTbilisi Mathematical Journal, 2007
A number of results for C$^2$-smooth surfaces of constant width in Euclidean 3-space ${\mathbb{E}}^3$ are obtained. In particular, an integral inequality for constant width surfaces is established. This is used to prove that the ratio of volume to cubed width of a constant width surface is reduced by shrinking it along its normal lines.

An Improved Tomography Approach Based on Adaptive Smoothing and Ground Meteorological Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2017
Using the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) to sense three-dimensional water vapor (WV) has been intensively investigated. However, this technique still heavily relies on the a priori information.

On the nonuniform Berry--Esseen bound [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Due to the effort of a number of authors, the value c_u of the absolute constant factor in the uniform Berry--Esseen (BE) bound for sums of independent random variables has been gradually reduced to 0.4748 in the iid case and 0.5600 in the general case ...

Additive Modelling with Penalized Regression Splines and Genetic Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Additive models of the type y=f_1(x_1)+...+f_p(x_p)+e where f_j,j=1,...,p, have unspecified functional form, are flexible statistical regression models which can be used to characterize nonlinear regression effects.

The Dunkl–Williams constant, convexity, smoothness and normal structure

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2008
In 1964, \textit{C. F. Dunkl} and \textit{K. S. Williams} [Am. Math. Monthly 71, No. 1, 53--54 (1964; Zbl 0178.16202)] proved that \[ \left\| \frac{x}{\| x \|} - \frac{y}{\| y \|} \right\| \leq \frac{4}{\| x \| + \| y \| } \| x - y \| \] for nonzero elements \(x\) and \(y\) in a normed linear space \(X\) and noted that the constant \(4\) in the ...

3D microwave tomography with huber regularization applied to realistic numerical breast phantoms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Quantitative active microwave imaging for breast cancer screening and therapy monitoring applications requires adequate reconstruction algorithms, in particular with regard to the nonlinearity and ill-posedness of the inverse problem.

Effects of Carbon Nanoparticles on Triboelectro‐Induced Surface Defects

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Carbon nanoparticles added to grease modify the electrocontact behavior. The synergy of particle concentration and electric current dominates the surface damage of metals in contact. Electrical surface damage caused by current leakage is a critical challenge in high‐performance applications such as electric vehicle (EV) drivetrains and wind turbine ...
