WILD SOLUTIONS TO SCALAR EULER-LAGRANGE EQUATIONS

. We study very weak solutions to scalar Euler-Lagrange equations associated with quadratic convex functionals. We investigate whether W1,1 solutions are necessarily W 1,2 Nash and Schauder applicable. We answer this question positively for a suitable clas ...

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 ...

Non-smooth solutions in incompressible fluid dynamics

Luigi De Rosa

This work is devoted to the study of the main models which describe the motion of incompressible fluids, namely the Navier-Stokes, together with their hypodissipative version, and the Euler equations. We will mainly focus on the analysis of non-smooth weak ...

Design of a quality control network for an international food company

Philippe Wieser, Nicolas Zufferey, Simone Lydia Voldrich

In this article, the design of a quality control network is considered in an entire supply chain, in the context of an international food and beverage company, denoted as ABC. For each possible control point of the network, two decisions have to be made: ( ...

Graph-based regularization of inverse problems in imaging

Mattia Rossi

As of today, the extension of the human visual capabilities to machines remains both a cornerstone and an open challenge in the attempt to develop intelligent systems. On the one hand, the development of more and more sophisticated imaging devices, capable ...

How Values Play into Sustainability Assessments: Challenges and a Possible Way Forward

Livia Bianca Fritz, Franziska Meinherz

Any sustainability assessment uses some notion of sustainability as a reference. It is increasingly acknowledged that sustainability is a contested concept and that its different definitions are rooted in different values. Accordingly, researchers have sta ...

Joint Estimation Of The Room Geometry And Modes With Compressed Sensing

Pierre Vandergheynst, Hervé Lissek, Helena Peic Tukuljac, Vu Thach Pham

Acoustical behavior of a room for a given position of microphone and sound source is usually described using the room impulse response. If we rely on the standard uniform sampling, the estimation of room impulse response for arbitrary positions in the room ...

Stochastic partial differential equations driven by Lévy white noises : generalized random processes, random field solutions and regularity

Thomas Marie Jean-Baptiste Humeau

We study various aspects of stochastic partial differential equations driven by Lévy white noise. This driving noise, which is a generalization of Gaussian white noise, can be viewed either as a generalized random process or as an independently scattered r ...

iSCHRUNK – In Silico Approach to Characterization and Reduction of Uncertainty in the Kinetic Models of Genome-scale Metabolic Networks

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Stefano Andreozzi

Accurate determination of physiological states of cellular metabolism requires detailed information about metabolic fluxes, metabolite concentrations and distribution of enzyme states. Integration of fluxomics and metabolomics data, and thermodynamics-base ...

Improving the efficiency of branch-and-bound complete-search NMR assignment using the symmetry of molecules and spectra

Luc Patiny, Julien Wist, Andrés Mauricio Castillo Robles

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) assignment of small molecules is presented as a typical example of a combinatorial optimization problem in chemical physics. Three strategies that help improve the efficiency of solution search by the branch and bound metho ...

On the energy dissipation rate of solutions to the compressible isentropic Euler system

Elisabetta Chiodaroli

In this paper we extend and complement the results in [4] on the well-posedness issue for weak solutions of the compressible isentropic Euler system in 2 space dimensions with pressure law

p(\rho) = \rho^\gamme, \geq 1

. First we show that every Riemann p ...

Two-Level Discretization Techniques For Ground State Computations Of Bose-Einstein Condensates

Patrick Henning

This work presents a new methodology for computing ground states of Bose-Einstein condensates based on finite element discretizations on two different scales of numerical resolution. In a preprocessing step, a low-dimensional (coarse) generalized finite el ...

The Two-Well Problem For Piecewise-Affine Maps

Bernard Dacorogna

In the two-well problem we look for a map u which satisfies Dirichlet boundary conditions and whose gradient Du assumes values in SO (2) A boolean OR SO (2) B = S-A boolean OR S-B, for two given invertible matrices A, B (an element of SO (2) A is of the fo ...

Design of tensegrity structures using parametric analysis and stochastic search

Ian Smith, Landolf-Giosef-Anastasios Rhode-Barbarigos, Himanshu Jain

Tensegrity structures are lightweight structures composed of cables in tension and struts in compression. Since tensegrity systems exhibit geometrically nonlinear behavior, finding optimal structural designs is difficult. This paper focuses on the use of s ...

Overactuated systems coordination

Yvan Michellod

The economic growth inherent to our nowadays society pushes the industries toward better performances. In the mechatronic context, the increasing competition results in more and more stringent specifications. Thus, the multiple objectives to track become h ...

Nonideal Sampling and Regularization Theory

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thierry Blu, Sathish Ramani

Shannon's sampling theory and its variants provide effective solutions to the problem of reconstructing a signal from its samples in some “shift-invariant” space, which may or may not be bandlimited. In this paper, we present some further justification for ...

Regularity in metric spaces

Serguei Timochine

Using arguments developed by De Giorgi in the 1950's, it is possible to prove the regularity of the solutions to a vast class of variational problems in the Euclidean space. The main goal of the present thesis is to extend these results to the more abstrac ...
