A Reciprocal Transformation for the Constant Astigmatism Equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We introduce a nonlocal transformation to generate exact solutions of the constant astigmatism equation $z_{yy} + (1/z)_{xx} + 2 = 0$. The transformation is related to the special case of the famous B\"acklund transformation of the sine-Gordon equation ...

Iterating evolutes and involutes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper concerns iterations of two classical geometric constructions, the evolutes and involutes of plane curves, and their discretizations: evolutes and involutes of plane polygons.

Slant helices in three dimensional lie groups

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, we define slant helices in three dimensional Lie Groups with a bi-invariant metric and obtain a characterization of slant helices. Moreover, we give some relations between slant helices and their involutes, spherical images.Comment: 15 ...

High-order involute modified noncircular bevel gears

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2014
Noncircular bevel gears (NBGs) is a kind of spatial transmission mechanism which can be used to transmit the motion and power between two intersecting axes with a variable transmission ratio and according to a suitable motion program.

THE LOGARITHMIC SPIRAL AND ITS SPHERICAL COUNTERPART

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics, 2020
Logarithmic spirals are isogonal trajectories of pencils of lines. From a series of geometric consequences, we pick out a few which are relevant for kinematics: When a logarithmic spiral rolls on a line, its asymptotic point traces a straight line. Hence,

A Review on Solar Concentrators with Multi-surface and Multi-element (MS/ME) Combinations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Solar concentrator always plays an important role in solar energy collection as it could enhance the energy density effectively. Various structures of solar concentrators have been researched in recent years, among which multi-surface (MS) and multi ...

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...
