Skeletal muscle is composed of elongated myofiber cells 1-40 mm long by 10-100 μm in diameter. Cells are multinucleated (100-300 nuclei/cell), non-branched with a parallel arrangement, and separated from each other by thin connective tissue (endomysium, perimysium, epimysium). The sarcolemmal membrane is formed by the endomysium and the basal lamina. The sarcoplasm of the myofibers has many myo...

The high level classification of the Chirostyloidea Ortmann, 1892, is reviewed. Eumunididae Milne-Edwards & Bouvier, 1900, is resurrected for two genera formerly placed in the Chirostylidae Ortmann, 1892, Eumunida Smith, 1883, and Pseudomunida Haig, 1979, based on shared characteristics such as the dorsal carapace striation, presence of supraocular spines of the rostrum, dentition of the mandib...

A numerical model is developed for the process of oxygenassisted laser cutting of mild steel. Coupled oxygen concentration and energy balance equations are solved by a controlvolume-based computational scheme, while the velocity field is obtained by analytical boundary theory. The enthalpy method is adopted to trace the free boundary of the phase change and thus determine the molten-layer thick...

Fractal superlattices are composite, aperiodic structures comprised of alternating layers of two semiconductors following the rules of a fractal set. The scattering properties of polyadic Cantor fractal superlattices with variable lacunarity are determined. The reflection coefficient as a function of the particle energy and the lacunarity parameter present tunneling curves, which may be classif...

The two-dimensional striation model consists of a nonlinear system of PDE’s which arises in the modeling of the ionospheric plasma. The local-in-time existence of strong solutions is first proved using Banach’s fixed point theorem. Then, under physically relevant assumptions, the system is shown to be nonlinearly unstable as soon as it is linearly unstable. Moreover, the instability occurs befo...

Fired bullets bear striation marks that can be thought of as a "fingerprint" left by the firearm. This new comparison approach is based on an automated extraction of a "signature" encompassing the relevant marks from an image. To this end, multiple pictures of the bullet are recorded first by using different illumination patterns, and a high quality image is generated by means of fusion techniq...

In this report, generalized wave breaking equations are developed using three dimensional fully nonlinear extended Boussinesq equations to encompass rotational dynamics in wave breaking zone. The derivation for vorticity distributions are developed from Reynold based stress equations.

We propose to use binary strings as an efficient feature point descriptor, which we call BRIEF. We show that it is highly discriminative even when using relatively few bits and can be computed using simple intensity difference tests. Furthermore, the descriptor similarity can be evaluated using the Hamming distance, which is very efficient to compute, instead of the L2 norm as is usually done. ...
