Linear scattering theory of short-pulse reflectometry

Stefano Coda, Stephan Brunner, Oleg Krutkin

The linear scattering theory of short pulse reflectometry is presented. An expression for the scattering signal is obtained by applying the perturbation theory approach for solving the Helmholtz equation. Based on these analytical results, a method for mea ...

Design of a compliant load cell with adjustable stiffness

Charles Baur, Lennart Rubbert, Michal Stanislaw Smreczak

Manipulation at the sub-micron scale often requires force-sensing capabilities of milli-to nanonewton forces. This article presents a novel design of a compliant load cell with mechanically adjustable stiffness. The system enables adapting force sensitivit ...

Extension of Winkler’s solution to non-isothermal conditions for capturing the behaviour of plane geostructures subjected to thermal and mechanical actions

Lyesse Laloui, Qazim Llabjani, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria, Jacopo Zannin

Before this study, no analytical models had been made available for describing the behaviour of plane geostructures subjected to thermal and mechanical actions. This knowledge gap notably represented a limitation for investigations about the behaviour of s ...

Twist-Induced Snapping in a Bent Elastic Rod and Ribbon

Tomohiko Sano

Snapping of a slender structure is utilized in a wide range of natural and manmade systems, mostly to achieve rapid movement without relying on musclelike elements. Although several mechanisms for elastic energy storage and rapid release have been studied ...

Prospects and Challenges for the Conservation of Farm Animal Genomic Resources, 2015-2025

Stéphane Joost

Livestock conservation practice is changing rapidly in light of policy, climate change and market demands. The last decade saw a step change in technological and analytical approaches to define, manage and conserve Farm Animal Genomic Resources (FAnGR). Th ...

Static performance in transverse direction of pultruded GFRP bridge decks

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Sonia Yanes Armas

Pultruded glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bridge decks distribute punctual vehicular loads to the underlying superstructure and can also act as the upper chord of hybrid main girders. The deck’s structural performance in both cases is influenced by i ...

In silico assessment of the HPLC-UV response coefficients

Eric Albert Georges Bremond

A new in silica approach allowing to compute HPLC-UV response coefficients using Time Dependent-Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT) is here reported. Based on the use of a non linear least squares with bound restricted algorithm, this model exploits theoret ...

Towards a global participatory platform Democratising open data, complexity science and collective intelligence

Karl Aberer

The FuturICT project seeks to use the power of big data, analytic models grounded in complexity science, and the collective intelligence they yield for societal benefit. Accordingly, this paper argues that these new tools should not remain the preserve of ...

Modélisation analytique multiphysique pour la conception optimale de moteurs synchrones à aimants permanents

Patrick Ragot

During the last years, permanent magnets synchronous motors have become a reference in the industrial world, both from the economical and the technical point of view, because of their very good performance in both regards. Thus, application of specific met ...

Reputation Systems for Self-Organized Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jochen Mundinger, Sonja Buchegger

Self-organized networks such as mobile ad-hoc, Internet-based peer-to-peer, wireless mesh and Fourth Generation (4G) Wireless networks depend on cooperation of nodes. Reputation systems help nodes decide with whom to cooperate and which nodes to avoid. The ...

Analytical Modeling of Large-Signal Cyclo-Stationary Low-Frequency Noise With Arbitrary Periodic Input

Christian Enz, Ananda Sankar Roy

Low-frequency (LF) noise under cyclo-stationary excitation has received considerable attention recently. Until now, only semiempirical models for cyclo-stationary random telegraph signal (RTS) and flicker noise have been reported in the literature. In this ...

Le management des communautés virtuelles : organisation des processus sociotechniques, vers un modèle générique

Olivier Glassey

In the last three decades the management of information technologies has become a major issue in most organizations. In this context, virtual communities (VC), as a means to technologically foster collective social exchanges, are often proposed as viable s ...

Analytical modeling of the apparent d(33) piezoelectric coefficient determined by the direct quasistatic method for different boundary conditions

Nava Setter, Dragan Damjanovic

The longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient d(33) measured by the quasistatic (Berlincourt-type) method is strongly dependent on the sample aspect ratio (thickness/lateral dimension) and the type of contacts used to collect the charge and apply the pressure ...
