Abstract:
When memorizing multiple objects, humans process them in relation to each other, proposing a configuration benefit. Shifts in overt visual attention through eye movements might influence the processing of spatial configurations. Whereas some research suggests that overt visual attention aids the processing of spatial representations, other research suggests a snapshot-like processing of spatial configurations, thus likely not relying on eye movements. In the first experiment, we focused on the comparison between an enforced fixation and a free view condition regarding configurational effects.

In this paper, the spin configuration and the configurational anisotropy of the clusters were studied by Monte Carlo simulations. An easy magnetization directions and a configurational anisotropy were found for the clusters using the hysteresis and spin configurations in different magnetization processes, and the simulated natural angle and energy distribution. It is considered that the configurational anisotropy is mainly attributed to the non-uniformity in spin configurations.

We introduce a spatial model of concentration dynamics that supports the emergence of spatiotemporal inhomogeneities that engage in metabolism–boundary co-construction. These configurations exhibit disintegration following some perturbations, and self-repair in response to others. We define robustness as a viable configuration's tendency to return to its prior configuration in response to perturbations, and plasticity as a viable configuration's tendency to change to other viable configurations. These properties are demonstrated and quantified in the model, allowing us to map a space of viable

Abstract:
When comparing two or more multidimensional scaling (MDS) configurations, one usually first eliminates meaningless differences by Procrustean transformations. Such fittings lead to a number of unresolved issues such as the typical shrinkage of the fitted configuration relative to the target or how to interpret major similarity measures under various conditions of noise in the data. We here prove that the shrinkage ratio is equivalent to the correlation of the coordinates of the target and the fitted configuration. Thus, in real-life applications, the fitted configuration is always smaller than

Due to the unconventional nature of the blended wing body (BWB) no off-the-shelf software package exists for its conceptual design. This study details a first step towards the implementation of traditional and BWB-specific design and analysis methods into a software tool to enable preliminary sizing of a BWB. The tool is able to generate and analyze different BWB configurations on a conceptual level. This paper investigates three different BWB configurations. The first configuration is an aft-swept BWB with aft-mounted engines, the second configuration is an aft-swept BWB with wing-mounted eng

In the present study, a commercial finite volume package ANSYS FLUENT 14.5 has been used to determine thermo-hydraulic performance of two different vortex generator (VG) configurations, namely, flow-up and flow-down, located in triangular ducts.

In some studies, flow-up configuration showed better performance characteristics over flow-down configuration while in other studies flow-down configuration was found

This paper presents a study based on wind tunnel research on biplane configurations. The objective of this research is to establish an experimental basis for relationships between the main geometrical parameters that define a biplane configuration (stagger, decalage, gap, and sweep angle) and the aerodynamic characteristics (CL, CD). This experimental study focuses on a 2D approach. This method is the first step towards dealing with the issue, and it allows the variables involved in the tests to be reduced.

Three configurations—single, compact, and irregular types—were selected, and the heat transfer rate per unit BHE was calculated considering heat interference. In a case study with a typical configuration and general range of ground thermal conductivity, the BHE heat transfer rate of the compact configuration decreased owing to heat interference as the number of BHEs increased.

Multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithms can easily end up in local minima, depending on the starting configuration. This is particularly true for 2-dimensional ordinal MDS. A simulation study shows that there can be many local minima that all have an excellent model fit (i.e., small Stress) even if they do not recover a known latent configuration very well, and even if they differ substantially among each other. MDS programs give the user only one supposedly Stress-optimal solution. We here present a procedure for analyzing all MDS solutions resulting from using a variety of different starti

Additionally, the adaptability of the combined configuration to the lower blade solidity (c/t) condition was verified. The results indicate that both the slotted configuration and combined configuration can eliminate the mid-span BL separation, but a better reduction in t

AbstractNew methods of configuration analysis have recently emerged that are based on development trends characteristic of many technical systems. It has been found that though the development of any system aims to increase a combination of the performance, reliability and economy, actual design changes are frequently kept to a minimum to reduce the risk of failure. However, a strategy of risk reduction commits the designer to an existing configuration and an approved set of components and materials. Therefore, it is important to analyze the configurations, components, and materials of past de
