Vertical and Leg Stiffness Modeling During Running: Effect of Speed and Incline

Kamiar Aminian, Frédéric Meyer, Mathieu Pascal Falbriard, Grégoire Millet

A spring mass model is often used to describe human running, allowing to understand the concept of elastic energy storage and restitution. The stiffness of the spring is a key parameter and different methods have been developed to estimate both the vertica ...

Numerical simulation of sediment dynamics with free surface flows

Arwa Mrad

We present a numerical model for the simulation of 3D mono-dispersed sediment dynamics in a Newtonian flow with free surfaces. The physical model is a macroscopic model for the transport of sediment based on a sediment concentration with a single momentum ...

Real-time DCT Learning-based Reconstruction of Neural Signals

Volkan Cevher, Cosimo Aprile, Rabeeh Karimi Mahabadi

Wearable and implantable body sensor network systems are one of the key technologies for continuous monitoring of patient’s vital health status such as temperature and blood pressure, and brain activity. Such devices are critical for early detection of eme ...

An octree-based adaptive semi-Lagrangian free surface flow solver

Viljami Henrikki Laurmaa

A numerical method based on an adaptive octree space discretization for the simulation of 3D free-surface fluid flows is proposed. The Navier-Stokes equations are solved with a time-splitting scheme, which decouples advection from diffusion/incompressibili ...

Numerical modeling of heart valves using resistive Eulerian surfaces

Alfio Quarteroni, Aymen Laadhari

The goal of this work is the development and numerical implementation of a mathematical model describing the functioning of heart valves. To couple the pulsatile blood flow with a highly deformable thin structure (the valve's leaflets), a resistive Euleria ...

Free-Viewpoint Video Sequences: a New Challenge for Objective Quality Metrics

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

Free-viewpoint television is expected to create a more natural and interactive viewing experience by providing the ability to interactively change the viewpoint to enjoy a 3D scene. To render new virtual viewpoints, free-viewpoint systems rely on view synt ...

A quality assessment protocol for Free-viewpoint video sequences synthesized from decompressed depth data

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

In this paper, the analysis of a subjective quality experiment consisting in assessing the quality of free-viewpoint video sequences generated from decompressed depth data is presented. In the absence of a dedicated subjective assessment protocol for the e ...

Shock-induced deformation of Shergottites: Shock-pressures and perturbations of magmatic ages on Mars

Philippe Gillet, Pierre Beck

Shergottites and Chassignites practiced major deformation effects whose nature, magnitude and relevance were controversially evaluated and disputatively debated. Our studies of many shocked shergottites present, contrary to numerous previous reports, ample ...

Dendritic cell chemotaxis in 3D under defined chemokine gradients reveals differential response to ligands CCL21 and CCL19

Melody Swartz, Marco Pisano, Ulrike Haessler, Mingming Wu

Dendritic cell (DC) homing to the lymphatics and positioning within the lymph node is important for adaptive immunity, and is regulated by gradients of CCL19 and CCL21, ligands for CCR7. Despite the importance of DC chemotaxis, it is not well understood ho ...

A virtual valve for smooth contamination-free flow switching

Philippe Renaud, Thomas Michael Braschler, Harald Van Lintel, Nicolas Demierre, Anja Kunze, Mario Schlund, Raphaël Tornay, Joël Theytaz, Grazia Loche

We present a channel geometry that allows for clean switching between different inlets of a microchip without any contamination of the inlets or the downstream flow. We drive this virtual valve with a pneumatic pressure setup that minimizes disturbance of ...
