Serial Production, Serial Photography, and the Writing of History in Three Farmers on Their Way to a Dance by Flora Valadié

“…Yet the paradigm of the series maintains a linearity Powers’ prose foregoes: the historical event, just like the artifact, is to be perceived in terms of solid geometry and intersection of planes, a cross between “essayistic firmness” and “the invitation of fiction” that result in a three-dimensional object which the series fails to create.…”

On the Nature of Interplay among Major Flexibility Channels in Molecular Rotors by M. S. A. Abdel-Mottaleb

“…In agreement with the experimental results, the findings conclude the existence of a flexible geometry-dependent single emission band. Such a study may give information on how the molecule could be externally modified/fixed to yield a desired effect, i.e., more fluorescence or more nonradiative decay.…”

Creeping Ray Tracing Algorithm for Arbitrary NURBS Surfaces Based on Adaptive Variable Step Euler Method by Song Fu, Yun-Hua Zhang, Si-Yuan He, Xi Chen, Guo-Qiang Zhu

“…Although the uniform theory of diffraction (UTD) could be theoretically applied to arbitrarilyshaped convex objects modeled by nonuniform rational B-splines (NURBS), one of the great challenges in calculation of the UTD surface diffracted fields is the difficulty in determining the geodesic paths along which the creeping waves propagate on arbitrarilyshaped NURBS surfaces. In differential geometry, geodesic paths satisfy geodesic differential equation (GDE). …”
