As part of the BIOSANT program (biologically-inspired smart nanotechnology), scientists at NASA-Langley have identified a “self-healing” plastic that spontaneously closes the hole left by the passage of a bullet. To understand and generalize the phenomenon in question, the mechanical properties responsible for this ability are being explored. Low-rate impression testing was chosen to characteri...

For suitable Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ with Schauder decompositions and‎ ‎a suitable closed subspace $mathcal{M}$ of some compact operator space from $X$ to $Y$‎, ‎it is shown that the strong Banach-Saks-ness of all evaluation‎ ‎operators on ${mathcal M}$ is a sufficient condition for the weak‎ ‎Banach-Saks property of ${mathcal M}$, where for each $xin X$ and $y^*in‎ ‎Y^*$‎, ‎the evaluation op...

Inside Cover: In article 2200337, Klaus Müllen and Ullrich Scherf review diversified manufacturing. Conjugated polymers (CPs) exhibit structural diversity, including “classical” polyacetylenes polyarylenes, more sophisticated ladder polymer graphene nanoribbons, which possess versatile electrical optical properties contributing to the device fabrication. Moreover, rising demand for multiple mat...

In this paper, we first give a description of a surjective unit-preserving real-linear uniform isometry $ T : A longrightarrow B$,  where $ A $ and $ B $ are complex function spaces on compact Hausdorff spaces $ X $ and $ Y $, respectively, whenever ${rm ER}left (A, Xright ) = {rm Ch}left (A, Xright )$ and ${rm ER}left (B, Yright ) = {rm Ch}left (B, Yright )$. Next, we give a description of $ T...

neuroscience has recently contributed a lot to the understanding of aesthetic experience features. science, art and creativity are not really distinctively different entities. the parallelism seen between the properties of art and organizational principals of the brain has been highlighted through neuroaesthetic studies. aesthetic as a subjective experience has comprehensively been studies thro...

In this paper we find all solutions of four kinds of the Diophantine equations begin{equation*} ~x^{2}pm V_{t}xy-y^{2}pm x=0text{ and}~x^{2}pm V_{t}xy-y^{2}pm y=0, end{equation*}% for an odd number $t$, and, begin{equation*} ~x^{2}pm V_{t}xy+y^{2}-x=0text{ and}text{ }x^{2}pm V_{t}xy+y^{2}-y=0, end{equation*}% for an even number $t$, where $V_{n}$ is a generalized Lucas number. This pape...

In this paper, the notions of $(T,S)$-composition matrix and$(T,S)$-interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix areintroduced where $(T,S)$ is a dual pair of triangular module. Theyare the generalization of composition matrix and interval-valuedintuitionistic fuzzy equivalence matrix. Furthermore, theirproperties and characterizations are presented. Then a new methodbased on $tilde{...
