Failure time studies with intermittent observation and losses to follow-up
(Wiley, 2020-12-01)In health research interest often lies in modeling a failure time process but in many cohort studies failure status is only determined at scheduled assessment times. While the assessment times may be fixed upon study entry, ... -
Fast and Scalable Solvers for the Fluid Pressure Equations with Separating Solid Boundary Conditions
(Wiley, 2020-05)In this paper, we propose and evaluate fast, scalable approaches for solving the linear complementarity problems (LCP) arising from the fluid pressure equations with separating solid boundary conditions. Specifically, we ... -
Fast Prefix Adders for Non-uniform Input Arrival Times
(Springer Nature, 2017)We consider the problem of constructing fast and small parallel prefix adders for non-uniform input arrival times. In modern computer chips, adders with up to hundreds of inputs occur frequently, and they are often embedded ... -
A fast variational framework for accurate solid-fluid coupling
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2007-07)Physical simulation has emerged as a compelling animation technique, yet current approaches to coupling simulations of fluids and solids with irregular boundary geometry are inefficient or cannot handle some relevant ... -
Feature identification in time series data sets
(Elsevier, 2019-05)We present a computationally inexpensive, flexible feature identification method which uses a comparison of time series to identify a rank-ordered set of features in geophysically-sourced data sets. Many physical phenomena ... -
Finding an induced path that is not a shortest path
(Elsevier, 2021-07)We give a polynomial-time algorithm that, with input a graph G and two vertices u; v of G, decides whether there is an induced uv-path that is longer than the shortest uv-path. -
Finding Large H-Colorable Subgraphs in Hereditary Graph Classes
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2021-10-14)We study the Max Partial H-Coloring problem: given a graph G, find the largest induced subgraph of G that admits a homomorphism into H, where H is a fixed pattern graph without loops. Note that when H is a complete graph ... -
FrictionalMonolith: A Monolithic Optimization-based Approach for Granular Flow with Contact-Aware Rigid-Body Coupling
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2021)We propose FrictionalMonolith, a monolithic pressure-friction-contact solver for more accurately, robustly, and efficiently simulating two-way interactions of rigid bodies with continuum granular materials or inviscid ... -
Galerkin Finite Element Based Modeling of One Dimensional Packed Bed Reactor for Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) Process
(IEEE, 2020-12-11)Mathematical models of a complex physicochemical underground coal gasification process involve multidimensional non-linear partial differential equations (PDEs). Therefore, researchers always seek a suitable numerical ... -
Geo-Phisher: The Design and Evaluation of Information Visualizations about Internet Phishing Trends
(IEEE, 2016-06)We designed an information visualization about phishing trends and phishing prevention for the general public to examine the effects of interactivity on information finding, user perceptions and security behaviour intentions, ... -
Geometrical Frustration and Static Correlations in a Simple Glass Former
(American Physical Society, 2012-01-18)We study the geometrical frustration scenario of glass formation for simple hard-sphere models. We find that the dual picture in terms of defects brings little insight and no theoretical simplification for the understanding ... -
Geometrical frustration and static correlations in hard-sphere glass formers
(American Institute of Physics, 2013-03-28)We analytically and numerically characterize the structure of hard-sphere fluids in order to review various geometrical frustration scenarios of the glass transition. We find generalized polytetrahedral order to be correlated ... -
Gini-type measures of risk and variability: Gini shortfall, capital allocations, and heavy-tailed risks
(Elsevier, 2017-10-01)We introduce and explore Gini-type measures of risk and variability, and develop the corresponding economic capital allocation rules. The new measures are coherent, additive for co-monotonic risks, convenient computationally, ... -
Global Land Use Implications of Dietary Trends
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2017-09-28)Global food security and agricultural land management represent two urgent and intimately related challenges that humans must face. We quantify the changes in the global agricultural land footprint if the world were to ... -
Global land use implications of dietary trends
(PLOS One, 2018-08-08)Global food security and agricultural land management represent two urgent and intimately related challenges that humans must face. We quantify the changes in the global agricultural land footprint if the world were to ... -
Goldberg's conjecture is true for random multigraphs
(Elsevier, 2019-09)In the 70s, Goldberg, and independently Seymour, conjectured that for any multigraph G, the chromatic index χ′(G) satisfies χ′(G) ≤ max{∆(G)+1,⌈ρ(G)⌉}, where ρ(G) = max\{\frac {e(G[S])}{\lfloor|S|/2\rfloor} \mid S\subseteq ... -
H-colouring Pt-free graphs in subexponential time
(Elsevier, 2019-08-31)A graph is called Pt-free if it does not contain the path on t vertices as an induced subgraph. Let H be a multigraph with the property that any two distinct vertices share at most one common neighbour. We show that the ... -
Harnessing catalytic pumps for directional delivery of microparticles in microchambers
(Springer Nature, 2017-02-17)The directed transport of microparticles in microfluidic devices is vital for efficient bioassays and fabrication of complex microstructures. There remains, however, a need for methods to propel and steer microscopic cargo ... -
Harnessing surface-bound enzymatic reactions to organize microcapsules in solution
(American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2016-03)By developing new computational models, we examine how enzymatic reactions on an underlying surface can be harnessed to direct the motion and organization of reagent-laden microcapsules in a fluid-filled microchannel. In ... -
Hierarchical RLE level set: A compact and versatile deformable surface representation
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2006-01)This article introduces the Hierarchical Run-Length Encoded (H-RLE) Level Set data structure. This novel data structure combines the best features of the DT-Grid (of Nielsen and Museth [2004]) and the RLE Sparse Level Set ...
