A model for runway operation decisions with stable queues
Carlos D. F. J. Bernardes, César Rodrigo
The landing and takeoff operations for an airport at any given day are described in terms of the capacity envelopes associated to runway system configurations, of the scheduled fli…
Cayley-Menger extension of metrics on affine spaces
Ana Casimiro, Cesar Rodrigo
Associated to any affine space A endowed with a metric structure of arbitrary signature we consider the space of affine functionals operating on the space of quadratic functions of…
Discrete Formulation for the dynamics of rods deforming in space
Ana C. Casimiro, Cesar Rodrigo
We describe the main ingredients needed to create, from the smooth lagrangian density, a variational principle for discrete motions of a discrete rod, with corresponding conserved…
Symmetry-preserving discretization of variational field theories
A. C. Casimiro, C. Rodrigo
The present paper develops a variational theory of discrete fields defined on abstract cellular complexes. The discrete formulation is derived solely from a variational principle a…
