Abstract The design synthesis is the key issue in the mechanical conceptual design to generate the design candidates that meet the design requirements. This paper devotes to propose a novel and computable synthesis appro...

Birth defects are prenatal morphological or functional anomalies. Associations among them are studied to identify their etiopathogenesis. The graph theory methods allow analyzing relationships among a complete set of ano...

The Knowledge Engineering Suite is an ontology production method, based on relationship networks, for knowledge representation inside specific contexts. The production of these ontologies has three basic steps, since cat...

Estudou-se a ontogênese da Teoria da Mente (atribuição de pensamentos e conteúdos mentais a outros indivíduos) por meio da representação gráfica de “balões de pensamento”, examinando-se indicadores de difere...

Graphene oxide (GO) ultrathin flat lenses have provided a new and viable solution to achieve high resolution, high efficiency, ultra-light weight, integratable and flexible optical systems. Current GO lenses are designed...

"Complex networks theory have gained wider applicability since methods for transformation of time series to networks were proposed and successfully tested. In the last few years, horizontal visibility graph has become a ...

This is the first of two chapters of a work in which we consider the unrestricted, minimal, and bounded representation problems for unit interval (UIG) and unit circular-arc (UCA) graphs. In the unrestricted version, a p...

A systematic approach to the synthesis of compliant mechanisms starting from the problem requirements is proposed. The method uses as topological solution space several atlases of compliant mechanisms specialized from ri...

Aim: Understanding the spatial ecology of animal movements is a critical element in conserving long-lived, highly mobile marine species. Analyzing networks developed from movements of six sea turtle species reveals marin...

Background Walking impairments post-stroke are common but studying their neural basis with fMRI is difficult due to motion constraints. This study used post-task resting-state residual activity (PTRRA) to investigate wal...

The travelling salesman problem (or The sales representative problem) has been insufficiently explored so far. One of the first results on this issue was provided by Euler in 1759 (The problem of moving a knight on the c...

The article examines threats to the financial and innovative security of hospitality enterprises at the micro and macro levels. The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that the functioning of enterprises in this se...

IntroductionSmoothing fMRI data prior to analysis is a fundamental and widely used technique to increase sensitivity. Unconstrained smoothing can also reduce the spatial specificity of the analysis by introducing artifac...

Abstract Due to the complexity of substation systems and the diversity of data sources, potential inaccuracies or inconsistencies in data may compromise the accuracy of intelligent detection. To address this issue, an in...

Since its first formulations almost a century ago, mathematical models for disease spreading contributed to understand, evaluate and control the epidemic processes. They promoted a dramatic change in how epidemiologists ...

Background Structural imaging holds great potential for precise targeting and stimulation for deep brain stimulation (DBS). The anatomical information it provides may serve as potential biomarkers for predicting the effi...

"There is recent evidence that the core of the Internet, which was formerly dominated by large transit providers, has been reshaped after the transition to a multimedia-oriented network, first by general-purpose CDNs and...

Abstract Type synthesis of mechanisms aims to systematically determine all possible structures for a specific mobility requirement. Numerous methods based on different theories were proposed for type synthesis of lower m...

"It has been recently found using graph theory that measures of network structure can predict ratings of dream complexity, where increases in connectedness and decreases in randomness are observed in relation to increasi...

The Relationship Networks Project (RR - Redes de Relacionamento) is an innovative project, which intends to create a framework, which allows - through a fast data modeling - implementing interface elements that describe ...

Dynamical controls on terahertz (THz) wavefronts are crucial for many applications, but available mechanism requests tunable elements with sub-micrometer sizes that are difficult to find in the THz regime. Here, differen...

The effects of histidine and its imidazole ring adsorption on the electronic transport properties of graphene were investigated by first-principles calculations within a combination of density functional theory and non-e...

We analyze the entanglement generation of a system composed of two decoupled rotated graphene layers inside a planar microcavity. By considering the electromagnetic field of the cavity in the vacuum state and using time-...

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates based on chemical mechanism (CM) have received widespread attentions for the stable and repeatable signal output due to their excellent chemical stability, uniform mole...
