Abstract. Normal incidence seismic data provide the best images of crust and lithosphere. When properly designed continuous, these sections greatly contribute to understanding geometry orogens and, along with surface geology, unraveling their evolution. In this paper we present most complete transect, date, Iberian Massif, westernmost exposure European Variscides. Despite heterogeneity dataset,...

In epidemiology, the regression discontinuity design has received increasing attention recently and might be an alternative to randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate treatment effects. In regression discontinuity, treatment is assigned above a certain threshold of an assignment variable for which the treatment effect is adjusted in the analysis. We performed simulations and a validatio...

Background Cerebral electrical activity in extremely preterm infants is affected by various factors including blood gas and circulatory parameters. Objective To investigate whether continuously measured invasive mean arterial blood pressure (BP) is associated with electroencephalographic (EEG) discontinuity in extremely preterm infants. Study design This prospective observational study exam...

This paper deals with the handling of deformable linear objects (DLOs), such as hoses, wires, or leaf springs. It investigates usable features for the visionbased detection of a changing contact situation between a DLO and a rigid polyhedral obstacle and a classification of such contact state transitions. The result is a complete classification of contact state transitions and of the most signi...

Given a theory T extending that of dense linear orders without endpoints (DLO), in a language L ⊇ {<}, we are interested in extensions T ′ of T in languages extending L by unary relation symbols that are each interpreted in models of T ′ as sets that are both dense and codense in the underlying sets of the models. There is a canonically “wild” example, namely, T = Th(〈R, <,+, ·〉) and T ′ = Th(〈...

In this paper, we present a review on edge excited rays on convex and concave perfectly conducting structures with sharp edges or curvature discontinuities. The incident wave is either a space wave, a creeping wave or a whispering gallery wave. The observation point may be at large distance from the structure or located on its surface. In addition to more classical formulas, the paper contains ...

This paper studies the interaction of two droplets splashing on a stationary film. A source term is included in large-density-ratio pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann method to achieve tuneable surface tension. model offers excellent numerical accuracy and stability for droplet impacts liquid films. The influence Reynolds number, Weber film thickness, horizontal/vertical distance between crown g...

Report 53.1.44 pp.; 13 Figs; 1 Table; 20 Refs. In agromcteorological crop yield models meteorological values at not observed points have to be obtained by means of interpolation techniques. In this study, interpolation ...

Shallow translational slides are common in slopes during heavy rainfall. The classic model for the occurrence of translational slides in long slopes assumes rising saturation above a slip surface that reduces the frictional strength by decreasing the effective stress along soil discontinuities. The classic model for translational slope failure does not conform well to the nature of homogenous s...
