Beyond the ultradeep frontier fields and legacy observations (BUFFALO): a high-resolution strong plus weak-lensing view of Abell 370

The HST treasury programme BUFFALO provides extended wide-field imaging of the six Hubble Frontier Fields galaxy clusters. Here we present the combined strong and weak-lensing analysis of Abell 370, a massive cluster at z = 0.375. From the reconstructed to ...

Fully Localised Three-Dimensional Gravity-Capillary Solitary Waves on Water of Infinite Depth

Boris Buffoni

Fully localised three-dimensional solitary waves are steady water waves which are evanescent in every horizontal direction. Existence theories for fully localised three-dimensional solitary waves on water of finite depth have recently been published, and i ...

Blow-up, partial regularity and turbulence in incompressible fluid dynamics

Silja Noëmi Aline Haffter

Weak solutions arise naturally in the study of the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations both from an abstract regularity/blow-up perspective and from physical theories of turbulence. This thesis studies the structure and size of singular set of such weak solu ...

Learning-related congruent and incongruent changes of excitation and inhibition in distinct cortical areas

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Romain Guiet, Vahid Esmaeili, Georgios Foustoukos, Yanqi Liu, Keita Tamura, Anastasiia Oryshchuk, Reza Asri

Excitatory and inhibitory neurons in diverse cortical regions are likely to contribute differentially to the transformation of sensory information into goal-directed motor plans. Here, we investigate the relative changes across mouse sensorimotor cortex in ...

Tunability of space-time wave packet carrying tunable and dynamically changing OAM value

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Hao Song, Xinzhou Su

Space-time (ST) wave packets have gained much interest due to their dynamic optical properties. Such wave packets can be generated by synthesizing frequency comb lines, each having multiple complex-weighted spatial modes, to carry dynamically changing orbi ...

Influence of depositional fabric on mechanical properties of naturally deposited sands

Gioacchino Viggiani, Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

Fabric characteristics and shear deformation behaviour were analysed in four intact small-scale samples, including two disturbed and two undisturbed samples of naturally deposited sand from a shoal in the San Francisco Bay. Triaxial compression tests were ...

Evaluation of Site Errors in LLS Magnetic Direction Finding Caused by Large Hills Using the 3D‐FDTD Technique

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Wolfgang Schulz, Hannes Kohlmann

Angle and amplitude estimation errors in magnetic direction finding, called site errors, are important sensor-specific errors in lightning location systems (LLS). They are known to be caused by nearby cables and overhead lines due to induced currents. Due ...

Microscopic Origin of Nonlocal Rheology in Dense Granular Materials

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume

We study the microscopic origin of nonlocality in dense granular media. Discrete element simulations reveal that macroscopic shear results from a balance between microscopic elementary rearrangements occurring in opposite directions. The effective macrosco ...

Air-flow distortion bias factors of the port and starboard anemometers of the Akademik Tryoshnikov estimated during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) legs 0-4 undertaken during the austral summer of 2016/2017

Julia Schmale, Jenny Thomas, Sebastian Johannes Heinz-Josef Landwehr

Dataset abstract This data set contains the air-flow distortion bias factors of the port and starboard anemometers of the Akademik Tryoshnikov estimated during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) legs 0-4 undertaken during the ...

Using global reanalysis data to quantify and correct airflow distortion bias in shipborne wind speed measurements

Julia Schmale, Sebastian Johannes Heinz-Josef Landwehr

At sea, wind forcing is responsible for the formation and development of surface waves and represents an important source of near-surface turbulence. Therefore, processes related to near-surface turbulence and wave breaking, such as sea spray emission and ...

Short-Term Forecasting of Wake-Induced Fluctuations in Offshore Wind Farms

Arslan Salim Dar

The increasing share of offshore wind energy traded at the spot market requires short term wind direction forecasts to determine wake losses and increased power fluctuations due to multiple wakes in certain wind directions. The information on potential pow ...

Ultrabroadband 3D invisibility with fast-light cloaks

Hatice Altug, Dordaneh Etezadi, Kosmas Tsakmakidis, Ershad Mohammadi, Foziyeh Sohrabi

An invisibility cloak should completely hide an object from an observer, ideally across the visible spectrum and for all angles of incidence and polarizations of light, in three dimensions. However, until now, all such devices have been limited to either s ...

Sexual selection shapes development and maturation rates in Drosophila

Laurent Keller, Brian Dennis Hollis

Explanations for the evolution of delayed maturity usually invoke trade-offs mediated by growth, but processes of reproductive maturation continue long after growth has ceased. Here, we tested whether sexual selection shapes the rate of posteclosion matura ...

Supernumerary Robotic Arm for Three-Handed Surgical Application: Behavioral Study and Design of Human-Machine Interface

Elahe Abdi

In surgical to industrial manipulation, the operator needs assistance for tasks requiring more than two hands. Teamwork may be the source of errors and inefficiency, especially if the assistant is a novice or unfamiliar with the main operator. The need for ...
