This paper describes how the visual and acoustic characteristics of some Italian phones (/’a/, /b/, /v/) are modified in emotive speech by the expression of joy, surprise, sadness, disgust, anger, and fear. In this research we specifically analyze the interaction between labial configurations, peculiar to each emotion, and the articulatory lip movements of the Italian vowel /’a/ and consonants ...

We use the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations with a full Reynolds stress model (RSM) to study effect of corner angle in supersonic flow. RANS data are compared reference direct numerical simulation fully developed square duct flow, which support predictive capability secondary flows from Stress-ω RSM. then carry out parametric by changing range θ = 45 °– 135 °, focusing on mean s...

Two techniques are presented for corner detection. First, a band of filters are applied with equal radial spatial frequency, but different orientation preferences locally in the image domain. From the energy response, a linear Fourier transform is taken to give confidence measures of both "cornerness" and "edgeness. Second, we consider a multi-local spatial separation of filters that lie on a c...

We study the resonant wavelength of nanograting structures covered by a dielectric medium. We find that the resonant wavelength oscillates as the thickness of the thin dielectric layer increases due to the cavity formed by the dielectric layer. The amplitude of this oscillation in the resonant wavelength is small when the minimum reflection occurs in the nanograting structure. For a plasmonic s...

The structure of high-temperature liquids is an important topic for understanding the fragility of liquids. Here we report the structure of a high-temperature non-glass-forming oxide liquid, ZrO2, at an atomistic and electronic level. The Bhatia-Thornton number-number structure factor of ZrO2 does not show a first sharp diffraction peak. The atomic structure comprises ZrO5, ZrO6 and ZrO7 polyhe...

Tube hydroforming is one type of unconventional metal forming process in which high fluid pressure and axial feed are used to deform a tube blank in the desired shape. Bi-layered tube hydroforming is suitable to produce bi-layered joints which can be used in special applications such as aerospace, oil production, and nuclear power plants. In this work a finite element study was performed using ...

A multistage approach to gray-level corner detection is proposed in this paper, which is based on fast corner extraction using the Plessey corner detector combined with CMOS image acquisition technologies and localization refinement using a spatial subpixel analysis approach. The proposed corner detector detects corners as the intersection points of the involved edges, only by using a small nei...

A simple non-parametric approach for detecting corner points using mathematical morphology is proposed in this paper. The proposed method has two stages, the first stage deals with the extraction of significant corner clusters from an image, while the second stage concentrates on detection and localization of true corner points from the extracted corner clusters. The proposed method unlike othe...

Figures S1-S9 show topologies for stacking parameters not explored in Figure 14 of the manuscript, and may be of interest to the reader. These additional plots demonstrate the agreement between topologies across the different stacking parameters, such as the corner frequency of the low-pass filter, correction models, and SNR value. The stacking geometry in all the supplemental plots is 80 10-de...

We propose a class of AdS/CFT dual pairs which have small internal dimensions on the gravity side. Starting from known Freund-Rubin AdS/CFT dual pairs, we use 7-branes to nearly cancel the curvature energy of the internal dimensions while maintaining their stabilization. This leads to a new corner of the landscape – a class of AdS solutions with a hierarchically large AdS radius – with a dual f...
