Short homology bases for hyperelliptic hyperbolic surfaces

Given a hyperelliptic hyperbolic surface S of genus g >= 2, we find bounds on the lengths of homologically independent loops on S. As a consequence, we show that for any lambda is an element of (0, 1) there exists a constant N(lambda) such that every such ...

Numerical investigation on the volute cutwater for pumps running in turbine mode

Elena Vagnoni, Alessandro Morabito

The hydropower sector has recently raised the interest in pump as turbine (PaT) that can be a valid trade-off between capital cost and performance in micro-scale installations. Nevertheless, the modest efficiency of PaTs often restricts their exploitation. ...

On the Volume of the John-Lowner Ellipsoid

Grigory Ivanov

We find an optimal upper bound on the volume of the John ellipsoid of a k-dimensional section of the n-dimensional cube, and an optimal lower bound on the volume of the Lowner ellipsoid of a projection of the n-dimensional cross-polytope onto a k-dimension ...

A detailed view on the rebar–to–concrete interaction based on refined measurement techniques

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Raffaele Cantone

Simplified assumptions have traditionally been made on the rebar–to–concrete interaction in structural concrete to calculate the stress state in rebars. Such assumptions typically consider a uniform stress state in the reinforcement at a given cross sectio ...

Propulsion and energetics of a minimal magnetic microswimmer

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

In this manuscript we describe the realization of a minimal hybrid microswimmer, composed of a ferromagnetic nanorod and a paramagnetic microsphere. The unbounded pair is propelled in water upon application of a swinging magnetic field that induces a perio ...

Production of phosphorene nanoribbons

Vasiliki Tileli

Phosphorene is a mono-elemental, two-dimensional (2D) substance with outstanding, highly directional properties and a bandgap that depends on the number of layers of the material(1-8). Nanoribbons, meanwhile, combine the flexibility and unidirectional prop ...

Characterization of local morphology and availability of triple-phase boundaries in solid oxide cell electrodes

Jan Van Herle, Marco Cantoni, Arata Nakajo, Pierre Burdet, Giorgio Rinaldi

The performance of solid oxide cells is known to be dependent upon the density of three phase boundaries (TPB), but the potential for improving their effective electrocatalytic activity by morphological adjustments is imprecisely known. A spilling algorith ...

The effects of slide cohesion on impulse-wave formation

Christophe Ancey, Zhenzhu Meng

Experimental studies of impulse-wave formation have mostly used rigid blocks or granular materials to mimic landslides at the laboratory scale. These studies have deduced that material deformability plays a key part in wave formation: the more rigid the sl ...

An Any-Resolution Distributed Pressure Localization Scheme Using a Capacitive Soft Sensor Skin

Jamie Paik, Harshal Arun Sonar, Michelle Ching-Sum Yuen

We present a method to determine the location of an applied pressure on a large area, monolithic silicone based capacitive sensor. In contrast to pressure sensor arrays composed of n x n discrete sensors, we utilize a single sensor body with a single instr ...

A Stability Theorem On Cube Tessellations

János Pach

It is shown that if a d-dimensional cube is decomposed into n cubes, the side lengths of which belong to the interval (1 - n1/d+1; 1], then n is a perfect d-th power and all cubes are of the same size. This result is essentially tight. ...

Influence of the Linker Length on the Cytotoxicity of Homobinuclear Ruthenium(II) and Gold(I) Complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Emilia Paunescu, Mylène Soudani, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Dinudear metal complexes have emerged as a promising class of anticancer compounds with the ability to cross-link biomolecular targets. Here, we describe two novel series of phosphine-linked dinudear ruthenium(II) p-cyrnene and gold(I) complexes, in which ...

Cast aluminium single crystals cross the threshold from bulk to size-dependent stochastic plasticity

Andreas Mortensen, William Curtin, Csilla Mikó, Jérôme Krebs, Suzanne Godelieve Alphonsine Verheyden, Satish I Rao

Metals are known to exhibit mechanical behaviour at the nanoscale different to bulk samples. This transition typically initiates at the micrometre scale, yet existing techniques to produce micrometre-sized samples often introduce artefacts that can influen ...

Decomposition of a Cube into Nearly Equal Smaller Cubes

János Pach

Let d be a fixed positive integer and let epsilon > 0. It is shown that for every sufficiently large n >= n(0)( d, e), the d-dimensional unit cube can be decomposed into exactly n smaller cubes such that the ratio of the side length of the largest cube to ...

Poloidal asymmetry in the narrow heat flux feature in the TCV scrape-off layer

Basil Duval, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Stefano Coda, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Holger Reimerdes, Benoît Labit, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Jan Horacek, Federico Nespoli, Federico David Halpern, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui

Heat flux profiles inferred from a reciprocating probe at the outer midplane of the TCV tokamak during inner wall limited discharges feature radial fall-off lengths that shorten near the last closed flux surface (LCFS) consistent with the so-called narrow ...

Generalized Incremental Model Identification for Chemical Reaction Systems

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Diogo Filipe Mateus Rodrigues, Adrien Oulevey

Identification of kinetic models and estimation of kinetic parameters in chemical reaction systems can be done using Incremental Model Identification (IMI). By using IMI, it is possible to separate the effect of the different reactions and thus investigate ...

New Moduli For Banach Spaces

Grigory Ivanov

Modifying the moduli of supporting convexity and supporting smoothness, we introduce new moduli for Banach spaces which occur, for example, as lengths of catheti of right-angled triangles (defined via so-called quasiorthogonality). These triangles have two ...
