The modernization of voting methods is a dynamic area of research currently.In the past, innovation in voting methods was limited to the automation of steps in the process through mechanical means.This changed with the introduction of commercial cryptography in the 1970s, whose applications to voting triggered a new era in this research field.Resea
Land use planning: A potential force for retaining habitat connectivity in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and Beyond
The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) population in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) is perceived to have been isolated from the population in the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem for a century.Better land use planning is needed to thwart progressive intra- and inter-ecosystem habitat fragmentation, especially due to private land d
The spectrum of computed tomography findings in blunt trauma of the subclavian/axillary artery: a pictorial essay
Traumatic injuries of the subclavian and axillary arteries are uncommon but have high morbidity and mortality.In contrast to penetrating injuries, MENS which are often lethal, blunt injuries present a wide and heterogeneous spectrum of imaging findings.If a vessel tear or transsection is a life-threatening circumstance, minor injuries might be over
Acoustic Improvements of Aircraft Headrests Based on Electrospun Mats Evaluated Through Boundary Element Method
This work illustrates the development of passive HEAD HUGGERS noise control (copyright) improvements of aircraft headrests to enhance the acoustic comfort for passengers.Two copyright improvements were studied with the aim of reducing the noise perceived by passengers during flight.Two headrest configurations, with and without the lateral caps, and
Solving systems of Boolean multivariate equations with quantum annealing
Polynomial systems over the binary field have important applications, especially in symmetric and asymmetric cryptanalysis, multivariate-based postquantum cryptography, coding theory, and 9VR computer algebra.In this paper, we study the quantum annealing model for solving Boolean systems of multivariate equations of degree 2, usually referred to as
