With the rapid development of point cloud processing technologies and the availability of a wide range of 3D capturing devices, a geometric object from the real world can be directly represented digitally as a dense and fine point cloud.Decomposing a 3D shape represented in point cloud into meaningful parts has very important practical implications
Mycotoxins, such as aflatoxins, fumonisins, trichothecenes, and zearalenone, are increasing in visibility as a public health threat through both acute and chronic exposure in food.USAID through its Feed the Future program Lotions has sponsored research in Nepal on mycotoxin contamination and the correlated high levels of stunting in children under
An idealized model of an arterial wall is proposed as a two-layer system.Distinct mechanical response of each layer is taken into account considering two types of strain energy functions in the hyperelasticity framework.The outer layer, considered as a fibre-reinforced composite, is modelled using the structural model of Holzapfel.The inner layer,
Phylogenetic relationships among mediophycean diatoms with elliptical valve outline and elevated apices have long been a subject of interest and debate, particularly with respect to their relationship to pennates.However, results remain inconclusive, whether based on vegetative valve morphology, reproduction, or molecular phylogenetic data.Searchin
