There are many combinatorial realizations of the crystals BΛ for the integral highest weight representations of b sln. One of the earliest and perhaps best known has as it’s underlying set certain `-tuples of partitions, where ` is the level of the representation. Another more recent model has as it’s underlying set certain cylindric plane partitions. Here we present a simple crystal isomorphis...

This paper describes a new algorithm for estimating the position and orientation of objects. The problem is formulated as an optimization problem using dual number quaternious. The advantage of using this representation is that the method solves for the location estimate by minimizing a single cost function associated with the sum of the orientation and position errors and thus is expected to h...

The frequency-wavenumber spectra of laminated media often exhibit anomalous modes with descending branches whose group velocity is negative, and these terminate at a minimum point at which the group velocity transitions from negative to positive. These minima are associated with resonant conditions in the medium, which have been clearly observed in experiments and in the nondestructive testing ...

boundary layer growth and hence displacement thickness are the key factors in shock position over aerodynamical surfaces at transonic regimes. since boundary layer growth is a function of free stream reynolds number and also of the transition location, the free stream reynolds number and also the other parameters involved in the boundary layer growth and its transition location are determinant ...
