Frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) applies widely to communication and radar systems to ensure communication information and channel signal quality by tuning frequency within a wide frequency range in a random sequence. An efficient signal proc...

Poly(lactic acid) is not only one of the most often used materials for 3D printing via fused deposition modeling (FDM), but also a shape-memory polymer. This means that objects printed from PLA can, to a certain extent, be deformed and regenerate the...

Topological transitions are relevant for boundary conditions. Therefore, we investigate the bulk spectra, edge states, and topological phases of Szegedy’s quantum search on a one-dimensional (1D) cycle with self-loops, where the search operator...

Divisibility networks of natural numbers present a scale-free distribution as many other process in real life due to human interventions. This was quite unexpected since it is hard to find patterns concerning anything related with prime numbers. Howe...

This study investigates the mixed-mode I/II fracture behavior of O-notched diagonally loaded square plate (DLSP) samples containing an edge crack within the O-notch. This investigation aims to explore the combined effects of loading rate and mode mix...

This study investigates the mechanical performance and failure mechanisms of large-span, cast-in situ hollow-core floor slabs with square-box core molds under vertical loading. A combination of in situ tests and refined numerical simulations was used...

Let R denote a connected region inside a simple polygon, P. By building barriers (typically straight-line segments) in $PR$...

The integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into tensioned membrane structures presents a significant advancement for sustainable applications in the built environment. However, a critical technical challenge remains in the substantial strains induc...

Great progress has been made in recent years towards understanding the properties of disordered electronic systems. In part, this is made possible by recent advances in quantum effective medium methods which enable the study of disorder and electron-...
