Quadratic serendipity element shape functions on general planar polygons

This paper proposes a method for the construction of quadratic serendipity element (QSE) shape functions on planar convex and concave polygons. Existing approaches for constructing QSE shape functions are linear combinations of the pair-wise products of ge ...

Mobility law of dislocations with several character angles and temperatures in FCC Aluminum

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Jaehyun Cho

We study the mobility law of dislocations in aluminum as an important building block for the development of a multiscale method that couples an atomistic model with discrete dislocation dynamics in 3d (\eg CADD3d). Straight dislocations of arbitrary charac ...

Gyre formation in open and deep lacustrine embayments: The example of Lake Geneva, Switzerland

David Andrew Barry, Alfred Johny Wüest, Ulrich Lemmin, Damien Bouffard, Amir Mehdi Razmi, Robert Eduard Uittenbogaard

Numerical simulations were carried out to investigate gyres within open lacustrine embayments subjected to parallel-to-shore currents. In such embayments, gyre formation occurs due to flow separation at the embayment’s upstream edge. High momentum fluid fr ...

The degenerate two well problem for piecewise affine maps

Bernard Dacorogna

The two well problem consists in finding maps u which satisfy some boundary conditions and whose gradient Du assumes values in the two wells . Here (similarly ) is the well generated by a 2 x 2 matrix A, i.e., is the set of matrices of the form RA, where R ...

A new method for internal-external rotation measurement in a prosthetic knee

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Arami

In this work, a magnetic measurement system was designed and tested to estimate the Internal-External rotation between the Tibial and Femural parts of a knee prosthesis. To obtain this, the sensors were inserted in polyethylene part while a permanent magne ...

Measurement of Multi-segment Foot Joint Angles During Gait Using a Wearable System

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Hossein Rouhani, Xavier Crevoisier

Usually the measurement of multi-segment foot and ankle complex kinematics is done with stationary motion capture devices which are limited to use in a gait laboratory. This study aimed to propose and validate a wearable system to measure the foot and ankl ...

Graphs That Admit Polyline Drawings with Few Crossing Angles

Radoslav Fulek

We consider graphs that admit polyline drawings where all crossings occur at the same angle alpha is an element of (0, pi/2]. We prove that every graph on n vertices that admits such a polyline drawing with at most two bends per edge has O(n) edges. This r ...

A Comparison Between Joint Coordinate System and Attitude Vector for Multi-segment foot Kinematics

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Hossein Rouhani, Xavier Crevoisier

The joint angles of multi-segment foot models have been primarily described using two mathematical methods: the joint coordinate system and the attitude vector. This study aimed to determine whether the angles obtained through these two descriptors are com ...

Comment on “Encoding many channels on the same frequency through radio vorticity: first experimental test”

Julien Perruisseau-Carrier, Michele Tamagnone

We show that the public experiment held in Venice by Tamburini et al and reported in 2012 New J. Phys. 14 033001 can be regarded as a particular implementation of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) communications and, therefore, has no advantages over e ...

Corner Effect and Local Volume Inversion in SiNW FETs

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Kirsten Emilie Moselund, Luca De Michielis, Luca Selmi

In this paper, a quantitative study of the corner effect and of the local volume inversion on gate-all-around MOSFETs based on numerical simulations has been carried out; different angles and doping levels are compared, in order to understand the impact of ...

Indecomposable Coverings with Concave Polygons

Doemoetoer Palvoelgyi

We show that for any concave polygon that has no parallel sides and for any k, there is a k-fold covering of some point set by the translates of this polygon that cannot be decomposed into two coverings. Moreover, we give a complete classification of open ...

Decomposition of Geometric Set Systems and Graphs

Doemoetoer Palvoelgyi

We study two decomposition problems in combinatorial geometry. The first part of the thesis deals with the decomposition of multiple coverings of the plane. We say that a planar set is cover-decomposable if there is a constant m such that any m-fold coveri ...

Grazing function g and collimation angular acceptance

Valentina Previtali

The grazing function g is introduced—a synchrobetatron optical quantity that is analogous (and closely connected) to the Twiss and dispersion functions β, α, η, and η′. It parametrizes the rate of change of total angle with respect to synchrotron amplitude ...
