In this study, an appropriate fabric weight content controlled by the density of the warp and weft fibers is determined for biaxial warp-knitted composites referring to mechanical test results. Six different types of composite panel with two different fabric weights (813 and 1187 gr/m) and with three different stacking sequences [90we/0wa/90we/0wa]s, [90wa/ 0we/90wa/0we]s, and [90wa/0we/90we/0w...

Spatially varying warps are increasingly popular for image alignment. In particular, as-projective-as-possible (APAP) warps have been proven effective for accurate panoramic stitching, especially in cases with significant depth parallax that defeat standard homographic warps. However, estimating spatially varying warps requires a sufficient number of feature matches. In image regions where feat...

A permutor design for woven convolutional encoders with outer warp is introduced. All warp permutors are considered jointly, and for the overall design an approach similar to that of higher order separations for serially concatenated convolutional codes is applied. We present a bound on the minimum distance of a code generated by a woven convolutional encoder with outer warp and designed row pe...

In this work we analyse the potential for a warp drive spacetime to develop instabilities due presence of quantum matter. Particularly, look points infinite blueshift (which are analogous black hole inner horizon, known its semiclassical instability), and categorise them through behaviour geodesics in their vicinity. We find that warp-drive bubbles dimension 2+1 or higher fact likely be stable,...

It is commonly believed that Alcubierre’s warp drive works by contracting space in front of the warp bubble and expanding space behind it. We show that this contraction/expansion is but a marginal consequence of the choice made by Alcubierre, and explicitly construct a similar spacetime where no contraction/expansion occurs. Introduction Alcubierre’s warp drive spacetime ([Alc94]) allows effect...
