Generalized Logistic Maps in the Complex Plane: Structure, Symmetry, and Escape-Time Dynamics by Krzysztof Gdawiec, Muhammad Tanveer

“…Central to our approach is the development of an escape criterion based on the Picard orbit, which underpins the escape-time algorithms employed for graphical approximations of these sets. We analyse the structural and dynamical properties of the resulting Mandelbrot and Julia sets, emphasising their inherent symmetries through detailed visualisations. …”

Structural Integrity Analysis of Nozzleless Booster Propellant Grain in the Process of Curing and Cooling by Kui Bin, Liu Qiang, Na Xudong, Liu Jue

“…In order to accurately evaluate the structural integrity level of the solid rocket ramjet nozzleless booster propellant grain during curing and cooling, the structural integrity of the nozzleless booster propellant grain of a solid rocket ramjet engine under uniform temperature field with linear temperature reduction and non-uniform temperature field considering convective heat transfer between nozzleless booster and environment is calculated by using finite element software, and the results of finite element calculation are compared with the measured results of CT. …”

The Internationalisation of Family Firms: the Role of the Ownership Structure and the Composition of Top Management Team by Aleksandra Wąsowska

“…Contribution & Value Added: The originality of this work lies in treating family firms as a heterogeneous group and investigating the impact of different dimensions of ’familiness’ (i.e. ownership structure, composition of TMTs) upon an internationalisation strategy.     …”

Spiking dynamics of individual neurons reflect changes in the structure and function of neuronal networks by Ruochen Yang, Heng Ping, Xiongye Xiao, Roozbeh Kiani, Paul Bogdan

“…Abstract Brain networks exhibit diverse topological structures to adapt and support brain functions. The changes in neuronal network architecture can lead to alterations in neuronal spiking activity, yet how individual neuronal behavior reflects network structure remains unexplored. …”
