Computational conceptual design — typological exploration of spatial truss systems through optimization

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jonas Warmuth, Pierluigi D'Acunto

Exploring a wide range of design options is crucial for every sound conceptual design process. In the conventional structural design workflow, optimization techniques are generally employed to generate well-performing design options. However, focusing only ...

Method for the electrical passivation of electrode arrays and/or conductive paths in general, and a method for producing stretchable electrode arrays and/or stretchable conductive paths in general

Stéphanie Lacour, Ivan Rusev Minev

A method produces a conductive paste comprising 15-20% by weight of PDMS and 80-85% by weight of metallic micro-nano particles, wherein the conductive paste is obtained by repeated addition of singular doses of PDMS to a heptane diluted PDMS low viscosity ...

How to Benchmark Objective Quality Metrics from Paired Comparison Data?

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

The procedures commonly used to evaluate the performance of objective quality metrics rely on ground truth mean opinion scores and associated confidence intervals, which are usually obtained via direct scaling methods. However, indirect scaling methods, su ...

Automated Reconstruction of Evolving Curvilinear Tree Structures

Przemyslaw Rafal Glowacki

Curvilinear networks are prevalent in nature and span many different scales, ranging from micron-scale neural structures in the brain to petameter-scale dark-matter arbors binding massive galaxy clusters. Reliably reconstructing them in an automated fashio ...

A Methodology for Global Sensitivity Analysis for Time-Dependent Code Output Applied to Reflood Simulation in TRACE

Andreas Pautz, Damar Canggih Wicaksono, Omar Zerkak

Understanding properly the impact of model parameters and their interactions on the predictions is required for an appropriate model assessment. For simulation of reflooding following a LOCA, this requirement is justified because the important parameters a ...

Protein Domain Prediction and Alternative Splicing Histories : a Modular View

Yann Christinat

Modularity is at the core of bioinformatics. Here we focused on two different building blocks: protein domains and exons. While protein domains enable us to study the protein‚s functions, exons allow us to understand the evolution of the former. However, a ...

Optimal use of conservation and accessibility filters in microRNA target prediction

Jiri Vanicek, Ray Marcel Marin Florez

It is generally accepted that filtering microRNA (miRNA) target predictions by conservation or by accessibility can reduce the false discovery rate. However, these two strategies are usually not exploited in a combined and flexible manner. Here, we introdu ...

Role of elastin anisotropy in structural strain energy functions of arterial tissue

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Edouard Fonck

The vascular wall exhibits nonlinear anisotropic mechanical properties. The identification of a strain energy function (SEF) is the preferred method to describe its complex nonlinear elastic properties. Earlier constituent-based SEF models, where elastin i ...

On unifying sparsity and geometry for image-based 3D scene representation

Ivana Tosic

Demand has emerged for next generation visual technologies that go beyond conventional 2D imaging. Such technologies should capture and communicate all perceptually relevant three-dimensional information about an environment to a distant observer, providin ...

Web-based management of IP networks and systems

Jean-Philippe Martin-Flatin

The management of IP networks and systems is currently based on the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and the SNMP management architecture. This poses a number of problems. Some are related to the efficiency, scalability, latency, and expressivenes ...
