Bethe approximation for a system of hard rigid rods: the random locally tree-like layered lattice [PDF]
We study the Bethe approximation for a system of long rigid rods of fixed length k, with only excluded volume interaction. For large enough k, this system undergoes an isotropic-nematic phase transition as a function of density of the rods.

Louse (Insecta : Phthiraptera) mitochondrial 12S rRNA secondary structure is highly variable [PDF]
Lice are ectoparasitic insects hosted by birds and mammals. Mitochondrial 12S rRNA sequences obtained from lice show considerable length variation and are very difficult to align.

Moduli Space of Paired Punctures, Cyclohedra and Particle Pairs on a Circle
In this paper, we study a new moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{n+1}^{\mathrm{c}}$, which is obtained from $\mathcal{M}_{0,2n+2}$ by identifying pairs of punctures. We find that this space is tiled by $2^{n-1}n!$ cyclohedra, and construct the canonical form for

Simplifying Generalized Belief Propagation on Redundant Region Graphs
The cluster variation method has been developed into a general theoretical framework for treating short-range correlations in many-body systems after it was first proposed by Kikuchi in 1951.

Capturing, classification and concept generation for automated maintenance tasks [PDF]
Maintenance is an efficient and cost effective way to keep the function of the product available during the product lifecycle. Automating maintenance may drive down costs and improve performance time; however capturing the necessary information required ...

Morphoelastic rods Part 1: A single growing elastic rod [PDF]
A theory for the dynamics and statics of growing elastic rods is presented. First, a single growing rod is considered and the formalism of three-dimensional multiplicative decomposition of morphoelasticity is used to describe the bulk growth of Kirchhoff

Deployment/retraction ground testing of a large flexible solar array [PDF]
The simulated zero-gravity ground testing of the flexible fold-up solar array consisting of eighty-four full-size panels (.368 m x .4 m each) is addressed. Automatic, hands-off extension, retraction, and lockup operations are included.
