Voronoi Diagram-based USBL Outlier Rejection for AUV Localization
USBL systems are essential for providing accurate positions of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). On the other hand, the accuracy can be degraded by outliers because of the environmental conditions.

ABSTRACT Background Sarcopenia, a loss of muscle strength, quantity and performance that occurs primarily from ageing or secondary to disease, is hypothesized to worsen treatment outcomes in patients with cancer. Most published studies, however, focus solely on muscle quantity in patients under 70.

ABSTRACT Grass mowing is one of the most resource‐consuming activities in green maintenance, whether in private areas such as home gardens or in public spaces like urban parks. In recent years, concerns related to climate change, human health, and sustainability have become increasingly prominent in green maintenance, leading manufacturers and industry

Generalized Voronoi Diagrams and Lie Sphere Geometry [PDF]
We use Lie sphere geometry to describe two large categories of generalized Voronoi diagrams that can be encoded in terms of the Lie quadric, the Lie inner product, and polyhedra.

Hexagrid-Voronoi transition in structural patterns for tall buildings
In this paper, a first insight into the role that non-conventional structural patterns might play in the design of tall buildings is presented. The idea is to explore the mechanical properties of selected non-conventional structural patterns, in the form

Simulator‐Based Bayesian Inference of Enhanced Geothermal Reservoir Properties
Abstract Inversions of dynamic multi‐scale multi‐physics subsurface system properties rely on the effective sampling of high‐dimensional parameter spaces and are thus notoriously difficult to perform. The associated models are defined by complex nonlinear relationships with potentially stochastic components, which lead to analytically intractable ...

Generalizing the Convex Hull of a Sample: The R Package alphahull [PDF]
This paper presents the R package alphahull which implements the ñ-convex hull and the ñ-shape of a finite set of points in the plane. These geometric structures provide an informative overview of the shape and properties of the point set. Unlike the

Abstract Bedload transport widely occurs in natural environments and encompasses flow regimes from saltation to sheet‐flow, with markedly different fluid‐particle interaction characteristics. Understanding these mechanisms requires a numerical tool capable of capturing both the turbulence and fluid‐particle interactions, for which challenges exist due ...

Generating Fractals from Voronoi Diagrams
This paper describes how to generate fractal patterns by recursively creating Voronoi diagrams on a set of points. These patterns resemble such things as leaf veins and roadmaps.

Functional morphology of trabecular bone in the calcaneus of African apes
Pan exhibits significantly higher calcaneal tuberosity trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and bone volume fraction (BV/TV) than Gorilla, potentially reflecting higher triceps surae forces for vertical climbing. Both taxa have significantly higher Tb.Th and BV/TV in the anterior calcaneus; the difference is exaggerated in Gorilla, potentially reflecting ...
