We show that topologically expansive Lorenz maps can be described up to topological conjugacy by their kneading invariants. We also give a simple condition on pairs of symbol sequences which is satisfied if and only if that pair of sequences is the kneading invariant for some topologically expansive Lorenz map. A simple extension of the theorems to the case of expansive maps of the interval wit...

In Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, there are several areas where expansive soil exists in the form of variable-thicknesses layers in the developed regions. Severe distress to infrastructures can be caused by the development of heave and swelling pressure in this kind of expansive shale. Among the various techniques for expansive soil mitigation, the removal and replacement technique is very popular fo...

Mirror exposure (ME) is one of the main components of the treatment of patients with eating disorders symptomatology and it has shown its effectiveness in improving several outcomes (e.g., body dissatisfaction). However, the study as to what body posture should be adopted to maximize its effectiveness has been neglected. From embodied cognition and emotion theories, the adoption of an expansive...

The crack developing depth is a key problem to slope stability of the expansive soil and its project governance and the crack appears under the roles of dry-wet cycle and gradually develops. It is believed from the analysis that, because of its own cohesion, the expansive soil will have a certain amount of deformation under pulling stress but without cracks. The soil body will crack only when t...

we present some new results on the existence and the approximationof common fixed point of expansive mappings and semigroups in probabilisticmetric spaces.

In this paper, we give a detailed mathematical understanding of flank milling with flat end cutters, which we use to develop a method for milling with such a cutter. This method slides the cutter along two rails, providing two points of contact on the surface.

This article presents results on expansive graphs that Víctor Neumann-Lara obtained in the late 1970’s and reported mostly without proofs in [8] and [9]. The untimely death of Víctor left us to complete this project, which had started in [7]. We had at hand [8, 9] and the manuscript [10] that, using his old notebooks, Víctor wrote with one of us in 1995. The original material has been thoroughl...
