Comet 81P/Wild 2 size, shape, and orientation

Lens development. IV. Size, shape, and orientation.

The right lenses were removed from a group of chick embryos at five days of incubation. Each lens was replaced by two lenses from donors of the same age. The donor lenses were implanted so that their equatorial planes lay at right angles to the equatorial plane of the host lens which they replaced. These cases were studied at 14 days of incubation. The volume of such lens pairs became regulated...

Dexterous Workspace Shape and Size Optimization of Tricept Parallel Manipulator

This work intends to deal with the optimal kinematic synthesis problem of Tricept parallel manipulator. Observing that cuboid workspaces are desirable for most machines, we use the concept of effective inscribed cuboid workspace, which reflects requirements on the workspace shape, volume and quality, simultaneously. The effectiveness of a workspace is characterized by the dexterity of the manip...

The Size, Shape and Orientation of Cosmological Voids in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

We present a detailed description of our void finding algorithm which is an extension of the prescription by Hoyle and Vogeley (2002). We include a discussion of the reproducibility and robustness of the algorithm as well as the statistical significance of the detected voids. We apply our void finder to the Data Release 5 (DR5) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and identify 232 cosmologica...
