The alpha-shape algorithm was developed to extract object shapes in 2-D space; however, the accuracy of the result depends on an appropriate choice of the parameter alpha. This parameter is directly related to point density ...

This study aimed at evaluating the validity, reliability, and factorial invariance of the complete (34-item) and shortened (8-item and 16-item) versions of the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) when applied to Brazilian ...

The current shortcoming in the development of wave energy technology is the shortage of available ocean data. To manage the lack of ocean data, theoretical assumptions are usually considered. These reasonable assumptions ...

In the case of tight transverse confinement (cigar-shaped trap), the three-dimensional (3D) nonlinear Schrodinger equation, describing superfluid Fermi atoms at unitarity (infinite scattering length vertical bar a vertical ...

As the demand for better performance increases in next-generation networks, such as 5G technologies, more efficient modulation techniques are required. In this work, we evaluate the performance of the improved parametric ...

Pulse shaping is used in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based systems to reduce inter-carrier interference (ICI) power and peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), which are considered the major weaknesses ...
