Master curves for FENE-P fluids in steady shear flow by Yamani, Sami, McKinley, Gareth H.

“…Steady shear flow experiments on three highly elastic dilute polymer solutions of different finite extensibilities also follow the identified master curves. The governing dimensionless parameter for these master curves is Wi/L and it is only in strong shear flows exceeding Wi/L≳1 that the effects of finite extensibility of the polymer chains dominate the evolution of polymeric stresses in the flow field. …”

Semi-local projective invariants for the recognition of smooth plane curves by Carlsson, S, Mohr, R, Moons, T, Morin, L, Rothwell, C, Van Diest, M, Van Gool, L, Veillon, F, Zisserman, A

“…Recently, several methods have been proposed for describing plane, non-algebraic curves in a projectively invariant fashion. These curve representations are invariant under changes in viewpoint and therefore ideally suited for recognition. …”

Passive acoustic tracking of an unmanned underwater vehicle using bearing-Doppler-speed measurements by Kita, Kristen Railey, Randeni, Supun, DiBiaso, Dino, Schmidt, Henrik

“…The propeller rotation rate can be estimated from the motor signature and converted to speed using a pre-identified model of the robot. The bearing-Doppler-speed measurements outperformed traditional bearing-Doppler target motion analysis: the bearing, bearing rate, range, and range rate accuracy improved by a factor of 2×, 16×, 3×, and 6×, respectively. …”

Speeding up secure web transactions using elliptic curve cryptography by Lim, Lai Koon.

“…Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is becoming an attractive alternative to traditional public-key cryptography systems like RSA, Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) and Diffie-Hellman (DH) as ECC provides similar level of security with smaller key sizes resulting in faster computations, lower power consumption, as well as memory and bandwidth savings. …”

Synthesis and telomeric G-quadruplex-stabilizing ability of macrocyclic hexaoxazoles bearing three side chains by Ma, Yue, Iida, Keisuke, Sasaki, Shogo, Hirokawa, Takatsugu, Heddi, Brahim, Nagasawa, Kazuo, Phan, Anh Tuân

“…Here, we describe the synthesis of a new series of macrocyclic hexaoxazole-type G4 ligand (6OTD) bearing three side chains. One of these ligands, 5b, stabilizes telomeric G4 preferentially over the G4-forming DNA sequences of c-kit and K-ras, due to the interaction of its piperazinylalkyl side chain with the groove of telomeric G4.…”

Augmenting images of non-rigid scenes using point and curve correspondences by Bartoli, A, von Tunzelmann, E, Zisserman, A

“…We propose an integrated method for non-rigid factorization and thin-plate spline interpolant estimation using point and curve correspondences over multiple views. The main novelties lie in the introduction of curves into the non-rigid factorization framework and in a direct global solution for the registration map, obtained by minimizing the registration error over all points and curves while taking all the images into account. …”
