A Decomposition-Based Approach for the Multiperiod Multiproduct Distribution Planning Problem by S. Ahmad Hosseini, Güvenç Şahin, Tonguç Ünlüyurt

“…We address the most general case of multiperiod, multiproduct network planning problems, where we allow spoilage on arcs and storage at nodes. In our models, all network parameters change over time and products. …”

Design of Reverse Curves Adapted to the Satellite Measurements by Wladyslaw Koc

“…The method may be particularly useful in the situations when both tangents cannot be connected in an elementary way using a circular arc with transition curves. Thus, the only solution would be the application of two circular arcs of opposite curvature signs, that is, the use of an inverse curve. …”

Gouvernance touristique des grandes stations et durabilité. Une lecture en termes de proximité by Emmanuelle Marcelpoil, Vincent Boudières

“…Such a comprehension makes it possible to encourage forms of negotiation and to create the conditions of local scenes of discussion on becoming to it stations. The stations of the Arcs, of Val d’Isère in Savoy will illustrate the diversity of the methods of articulation between proximities organisational and cognitive, in varied territorial contexts.…”

Efficient Algorithms on Multicommodity Flow over Time Problems with Partial Lane Reversals by Urmila Pyakurel, Shiva Prakash Gupta, Durga Prasad Khanal, Tanka Nath Dhamala

“…The multicommodity flow problem arises when several different commodities are transshipped from specific supply nodes to the corresponding demand nodes through the arcs of an underlying capacity network. The maximum flow over time problem concerns to maximize the sum of commodity flows in a given time horizon. …”

High-Accuracy and Efficient Simulation of Numerical Control Machining Using Tri-Level Grid and Envelope Theory by Zhengwen Nie, Yanzheng Zhao

“…To calculate the instantaneous engagement region, the immersion angles are obtained by fusing the intersection points between the bottom-level voxel edges and the cutter surface, which are then trimmed by feasible contact arcs determined using envelope theory. In a series of test cases, the proposed method shows higher efficiency than the tri-dexel model and stronger applicability in high-precision machining than the two-level grid.…”

Composite Operator Method Analysis of the Underdoped Cuprates Puzzle by Adolfo Avella

“…Given this recipe and exploiting the few unknowns to enforce the Pauli principle content in the solution, it is possible to qualitatively describe some of the anomalous features of high-Tc cuprate superconductors such as large versus small Fermi surface dichotomy, Fermi surface deconstruction (appearance of Fermi arcs), nodal versus antinodal physics, pseudogap(s), and kinks in the electronic dispersion. …”

Information retrieval interfaces in virtual reality-A scoping review focused on current generation technology. by Maurice Schleußinger

“…Although conventional retrieval features are less common, systems enable retrieval of literature, 3D objects, images, books and texts and arrange them in a virtual space (e.g. as grids, arcs or maps). Finally, many of these systems were compared to conventional counterparts through user evaluation (n = 10). …”

The Analysis of Time-Space Effect of Surrounding Rock Deformation of TBM Tunnels in Deep Composite Stratum with or without Support by Xiaoming Sun, Chao Ren, Junchao Yuan, Jianming Du, Jinshan Liu, Bo Guo

“…The analysis of the deformation characteristics as well as rupture of surrounding rock revealed those space-time effects: (1) When no support existed, the space-time effect of the surrounding rock deformation was concentrated in the following case: with the development of time, the deformation of surrounding rock starts from the sides of the arch waist at the junction of the composite stratum, while four arcs were derived and shear sliding occurred, resulting in overall collapse and destruction. (2) Following the support application, the space-time effect of the surrounding rock deformation was concentrated on the three stages of the interaction between the surrounding rock and the support, namely, the preliminary stage, the equilibrium process, and the instability state. …”
