Woods Runner: Setting The setting of the novel starts out in 1776 in the woods of the British Colony of Pennsylvania far from civilization. The forest was "unimaginably vast, impenetrable, mysterious and dark." (Pg. 4) The story moves from the woods onto the a battle field encampment in a clearing in the woods: "The clearing had been turned into a large encampment filled with

of branched rough paths introduced in (J. Differential Equations 248 (2010) 693–721). We first show that branched rough paths can equivalently be defined as γ-Hölder continuous paths in some Lie group, akin to geometric rough paths. We then show that every branched rough path can be encoded in a geometric rough path. More precisely, for every branched rough path Xlying above apathX .

use of the stress path method in solving stress-strain problems in soil mechanics. Some examples of stress paths are shown in Fig. 7.5. Fig. 7.5(a) shows a number of stress paths that start on the p axis ( σ1 σ3), the stress paths going in different directions depending on the relative changes to σ1 and σ3. Fig. 7.5(b) shows stress paths .

1 Finding Top-k Shortest Paths with Diversity Huiping Liu, Cheqing Jin , Bin Yang, and Aoying Zhou Abstract—The classical K Shortest Paths (KSP) problem, which identifies the kshortest paths in a directed graph, plays an important role in many application domains, such as providing alternative paths for vehicle routing services.

General Constrained Shortest k-Disjoint Paths (GCSDP(k)) Problem: Given two nodes s and t and a positive integer T, the GCSDP(k) problem is to find a set of k(k ‚ 2) link-disjoint s-t paths p1;p2:::;pk such that the delay of each path pi is at most T and the total cost of the k paths is minimum.
