It is established that every self-contracted curve in a Riemannian manifold has finite length, provided its image is contained in a compact set.

It is hereby established that, in Euclidean spaces of finite dimension, bounded self-contracted curves have finite length. This extends the main result of Daniilidis et al. (J. Math. Pures Appl. 94:183–199, 2010) concerning ...

We prove that quasiconvex functions always admit descent trajec- tories bypassing all non-minimizing critical points.

STUDY DESIGN: A prospective cohort study. BACKGROUND: Motor control dysfunctions have been commonly reported in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain (LBP). Physical therapists need clinical tools with adequate ...

Se estudia el colapso de un cascarón de polvo delgado desde dos enfoques diferentes: clásico y semiclásico. En el enfoque clásico se identifican superficies críticas cuyas coordenadas de tiempo y espacio intercambian sus ...

The following investigation presents the design and development proposal for a kinetic active bending structure, which integrates the high flexural deformations in kinematic systems, making the structure have a high ...
