Abstract: Reservoir characterization struggles with identifying fractures, a typical imbalance classification problem. To handle this issue, a novel approach called fracture identification by sliding ...

A new mathematical equation describes the distribution of different fragment sizes when an object breaks. Remarkably, the distribution is the same for everything from bubbles to spaghetti. When you ...

When a plate drops or a glass smashes, you're annoyed by the mess and the cost of replacing them. But for some physicists, the broken pieces are a source of fascination: Why does everything break into ...

A dropped plate, a smashed sugar cube and a broken drinking glass all seem to follow the same law of physics when it comes to how many fragments of a given size they will shatter into. For several ...

Abstract: Remotely piloted vehicles such as drones or mobile robots are equipped with a light Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to perform image processing tasks with limited complexity level. Thus, such ...
