Shedding light on the MRI-driven dynamo in a stratified shearing box

We study the magneto-rotational instability (MRI) dynamo in a geometrically thin disc (H/R < 1) using stratified zero net (vertical) flux shearing box simulations. We find that mean fields and electromotive forces (EMFs) oscillate with a primary frequency ...

Social Workers and Irregular Migrants in the Assistance Circuit: Making Sense of Paradoxical Inclusion

Maxime Carl Felder, Joan Stavo-Debauge, Sahar Fneich

Despite restrictive policy frameworks, cities sometimes provide support to irregular migrants. Scholars have analysed these forms of inclusion, focusing on policies and tensions between inclusionary approaches by local or urban actors and exclusionary appr ...

A weakly nonlinear amplitude equation approach to the bypass transition in the two-dimensional Lamb–Oseen vortex

François Gallaire, Yves-Marie François Ducimetière

We analytically derive an amplitude equation for the weakly nonlinear evolution of the linearly most amplified response of a non-normal dynamical system. The development generalizes the method proposed in Ducimetière et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 947, 2022, ...

Serial dependence in visual perception: A review

David Pascucci, Ayberk Ozkirli, Gizay Ceylan

How does the visual system represent continuity in the constantly changing visual input? A recent proposal is that vision is serially dependent: Stimuli seen a moment ago influence what we perceive in the present. In line with this, recent frameworks sugge ...

Reinforcement bond performance in 3D concrete printing: Explainable ensemble learning augmented by deep generative adversarial networks

Xianlin Wang

Integrating various reinforcements into 3D concrete printing (3DCP) is an efficient method to satisfy critical requirements for structural applications. This paper explores an explainable ensemble machine learning (EML) method to predict the bond failure m ...

Physics-Inspired Equivariant Descriptors of Nonbonded Interactions

Michele Ceriotti, Philip Robin Loche, Kevin Kazuki Huguenin-Dumittan

One essential ingredient in many machine learning (ML) based methods for atomistic modeling of materials and molecules is the use of locality. While allowing better system-size scaling, this systematically neglects long-range (LR) effects such as electrost ...

Surprise and novelty in the brain

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Alireza Modirshanechi, Sophia Becker

Notions of surprise and novelty have been used in various experimental and theoretical studies across multiple brain areas and species. However, 'surprise' and 'novelty' refer to different quantities in different studies, which raises concerns about whethe ...

Numerical investigation of bound states in quantum magnets

Mithilesh Nayak

Bound-states of particles are an interesting problem in quantum mechanics dating back to 1931 Bethe's solution of spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain. These exotic composite states are realized in quantum magnets and are detectable in inelastic neutron scattering (I ...

Expert perceptions of game-changing innovations towards net zero

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

Current technological improvements are yet to put the world on track to net-zero, which will require the uptake of transformative low-carbon innovations to supplement mitigation efforts. However, the role of such innovations is not yet fully understood; so ...

Crystalline or amorphous? A critical evaluation of phenomenological phase selection rules

Johann Michler, Caroline Hain, Ashish Sharma

In this work, we reviewed the available phase selection rules comprising atomic size and topological aspects, entropies, enthalpies, melting points, valence and itinerant electron concentrations, as well as electronegativity, and validated them using a car ...

A systematic review of empirical studies using log data from open-ended learning environments to measure science and engineering practices

Engin Walter Bumbacher

Technology-based, open-ended learning environments (OELEs) can capture detailed information of students' interactions as they work through a task or solve a problem embedded in the environment. This information, in the form of log data, has the potential t ...

Failure mechanism of fine-grained soil-structure interface for energy piles

Lyesse Laloui, Elena Ravera

The response of the soil-structure interface can significantly affect the performance of any geotechnical structure. Thermal cycles are a new factor that influence the response to all structures that have an energy function in addition to the structural on ...

Statistical potentials from the Gaussian scaling behaviour of chain fragments buried within protein globules

Stefano Zamuner

Knowledge-based approaches use the statistics collected from protein data-bank structures to estimate effective interaction potentials between amino acid pairs. Empirical relations are typically employed that are based on the crucial choice of a reference ...

A geometrically exact model for thin magneto-elastic shells

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Matteo Pezzulla, Dong Yan

We develop a reduced model for hard-magnetic, thin, linear-elastic shells that can be actuated through an external magnetic field, with geometrically exact strain measures. Assuming a reduced kinematics based on the Kirchhoff-Love assumption, we derive a r ...

Wigner Formulation of Thermal Transport in Solids

Nicola Marzari, Michele Simoncelli

Two different heat-transport mechanisms are discussed in solids. In crystals, heat carriers propagate and scatter particlelike as described by Peierls's formulation of the Boltzmann transport equation for phonon wave packets. In glasses, instead, carriers ...

Fractal Modeling of Polymer Plasma Laser Ablation, Plasma Plume Tsallis Entropy and Its q-Statistics Interpretation, Part I: Theory

Maria-Alexandra Paun

Polymer plasma produced by laser ablation is investigated in a theoretical manner. In relation to the fact that the charge carrier circulation is assumed to take place on fractal curves, the so-called fractality type, electrical charge transport can be res ...

Hole-induced anomaly in the thermodynamic behavior of a one-dimensional Bose gas

Riccardo Rota

We reveal an intriguing anomaly in the temperature dependence of the specific heat of a one-dimensional Bose gas. The observed peak holds for arbitrary interaction and remembers a superfluid-to-normal phase transition in higher dimensions, but phase transi ...

A semi-automated workflow paradigm for the distributed creation and curation of expert annotations

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss, Markus Franz Josef Neuwirth, Johannes Hentschel

The creation and curation of labeled datasets can be an arduous, expensive, and time-consuming task. We introduce a workflow paradigm for remote consensus-building between expert annotators, while considerably reducing the associated administrative overhea ...

Familiarity as a Practical Sense of Place

Familiarity is an elusive concept, capturing what we know intimately and what we only recognize from having seen before. This article aims to disambiguate these interpretations by proposing a sociological conceptualization of familiarity as a dynamic relat ...
