Pitfalls in the spectral measurements of polarization-altering metasurfaces

Olivier Martin, Hsiang-Chu Wang

The optical characterization of metasurfaces and nanostructures that alter the polarization of light is tricky and can lead to unphysical results, such as reflectance beyond unity. We track the origin of such pitfalls to the response of some typical optica ...

A simple theoretical model for estimating the frequency characteristics of black hole mergers

Roberto Guarino

Gravitational waves, despite predicted within the Theory of General Relativity about a century ago, were observed experi-mentally only in the last few years, thanks to the recent advances of the LIGO and Virgo detectors. In this work, we introduce a simple ...

Basin-scale gyres and mesoscale eddies in large lakes: A novel procedure for their detection and characterization, assessed in Lake Geneva

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Seyed Mahmood Hamze Ziabari, Frédéric Charles Soulignac, Mehrshad Foroughan

In large lakes subject to the Coriolis force, basin-scale gyres and mesoscale eddies, i.e. rotating coherent water masses, play a key role in spreading biochemical materials and energy throughout the lake. In order to assess the spatial and temporal extent ...

Efficient Bootstrapping for Approximate Homomorphic Encryption with Non-sparse Keys

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Juan Ramón Troncoso-Pastoriza, Jean-Philippe Léonard Bossuat, Christian Vincent Mouchet

We present a bootstrapping procedure for the full-RNS variant of the approximate homomorphic-encryption scheme of Cheon et al., CKKS (Asiacrypt 17, SAC 18). Compared to the previously proposed procedures (Eurocrypt 18 & 19, CT-RSA 20), our bootstrapping pr ...

Fast and multiscale formation of isogeometric matrices of microstructured geometric models

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Thibaut Hirschler

The matrix formation associated to high-order discretizations is known to be numerically demanding. Based on the existing procedure of interpolation and lookup, we design a multiscale assembly procedure to reduce the exorbitant assembly time in the context ...

Optical test procedure for characterization and calibration of robotic fiber positioners for multiobject spectrographs

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Mohamed Bouri, Ricardo Jorge Araùjo Pereira, Luzius Gregor Kronig, Philipp Hörler, Loïc Grossen

The recent burgeoning interest in massive multiobject spectroscopy has pushed the development of massive optical fiber positioning systems. These systems rely on precise fiber placement to detect the light spectra of many stars and galaxies. One successful ...

Adaptive algorithms for two fluids flows with anisotropic finite elements and order two time discretizations

Samuel Dubuis

This thesis is devoted to the derivation of a posteriori error estimates for the numerical approximation of fluids flows separated by a free surface. Based on these estimates, error indicators are introduced and adaptive algorithms are proposed to solve th ...

Compact high order finite volume method on unstructured grids IV: Explicit multi-step reconstruction schemes on compact stencil

Qian Wang

In the present paper, a multi-step reconstruction procedure is proposed for high order finite volume schemes on unstructured grids using compact stencil. The procedure is a recursive algorithm that can eventually provide sufficient relations for high order ...

Stiffness and Strength Estimation of Damaged Unreinforced Masonry Walls Using Crack Pattern

Katrin Beyer, Kiarash Mohtasham Dolatshahi

After an earthquake, the residual stiffness and strength of structural elements are typically estimated based on a qualitative visual inspection of cracks that is prone to error. In this paper a new approach is proposed to automatically estimate the update ...

Procedure for predicting part load resonance in Francis turbine hydropower units based on swirl number and local cavitation coefficient similitude

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry, Loïc Andolfatto, Sébastien Alligné

Francis turbines operating at part load conditions develop a cavitation precessing vortex known as a vortex rope in the draft tube cone below the runner outlet. At part load conditions, this vortex precession acts as an excitation source inducing pressure ...

Automated Eardrum Registration From Light-Field Data

Pascal Frossard, Ivana Tosic, Sofia Karygianni

The performance of automated classification algorithms for medical images needs to be very high and especially robust in order to be adopted into healthcare. Most of the time the main challenge is unregistered data, since it is usually captured: 1) from di ...

Photonic crystal slab cavity simultaneously optimized for ultra-high Q/V and vertical radiation coupling

Vincenzo Savona, Momchil Minkov

We present a design for a two-dimensional photonic crystal slab cavity in which the electric field localization is due to an extra hole in the lattice, as opposed to the more standard procedure of removal of holes. This leads to a tighter field confinement ...

Gold-Catalyzed Synthesis of 1,3-Diaminopyrazoles from 1-Alkynyltriazenes and Imines

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Loïc Nicolas Jeanbourquin

A new procedure for the synthesis of highly substituted 1,3-diaminopyrazoles is described. As substrates, we have employed 1-alkynyltriazenes and imines. The formation of pyrazoles was achieved by two-fold C–N coupling reactions in the presence of (JohnPho ...
