Resistances to change in urban travel behaviors

Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss

The social discourse surrounding the climate emergency progressively infuses the society, transforming into both micro- and macro-social injunctions to change. Yet, society - grounded in a territorial, social, and cultural contingency - appears to resist t ...

Switching losses in power devices: From dynamic on resistance to output capacitance hysteresis

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Remco Franciscus Peter van Erp, Hongkeng Zhu, Armin Jafari, Palliyage Srilak Nirmana Perera

In this paper, we review some of the main methods to characterize on-state and off-state losses in wide-band-gap devices under switching conditions. In the off-state, we will discuss about losses related to charging and discharging the output capacitance i ...

Investigating the composition and recruitment of the mycobacterial ImuA'-ImuB-DnaE2 mutasome

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Zela Alexandria-Mae Martin

A DNA damage-inducible mutagenic gene cassette has been implicated in the emergence of drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis during anti-tuberculosis (TB) chemotherapy. However, the molecular composition and operation of the encoded 'mycobacterial ...

DEA Self-discharge Characterization for Low Duty Cycle Applications

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Stefania Maria Aliki Konstantinidi, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

This publication presents the characterization of self discharging Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs) in order to give place to low duty cycle applications, during which a DEA must remain actuated for long periods of time. DEAs typically present a low c ...

Optimization of multi-directional fiber architecture for resistance and ductility of bolted FRP profile joints

Thomas Keller, Lulu Liu, Xin Wang

In view of the low structural efficiency of bolted joints in pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) profiles with mainly unidirectional (UD) fiber architecture, off-axis plies were considered as an effective way to improve bolted joint performance. An ex ...

Molecular Bases of the Membrane Association Mechanism Potentiating Antibiotic Resistance by New Delhi Metallo-beta-lactamase 1

Matteo Dal Peraro, Alessio Prunotto, Guillermo Bahr

Resistance to last-resort carbapenem antibiotics is an increasing threat to human health, as it critically limits therapeutic options. Metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) are the largest family of carbapenemases, enzymes that inactivate these drugs. Among MBLs, ...

Global robustness versus local vulnerabilities in complex synchronous networks

Philippe René Joseph Jacquod

In complex network-coupled dynamical systems, two questions of central importance are how to identify the most vulnerable components and how to devise a network making the overall system more robust to external perturbations. To address these two questions ...

Impact of Fin Width on Tri-Gate GaN MOSHEMTs

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Jun Ma, Luca Nela, Giovanni Santoruvo, Taifang Wang

In this paper, we present a detailed investigation of the impact of fin width (w(fin)) on tri-gate AlGaN/GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor high electron mobility transistors (MOSHEMTs). As w(fin) is reduced, the threshold voltage (V-TH) increases, which is due ...

Villa Eupalinos

Salvatore Aprea

Toute lecture ou analyse de la villa Eupalinos ne peut pas ignorer la relation exceptionnelle entre ces deux éléments d’une composition unique. Depuis sa position, et grâce à sa forte symétrie et à son caractère classique, la villa commande la géométrie d’ ...

"Impossibile da calcolare!" Il cantiere della buvette di Évian-les-Bains, fra intuizione creativa e rigore intellettuale (M.Novarina, J.Prouvé, S.Ketoff, 1955-57)

Giulia Marino

Precision mechanics: the buvette (pump room) of Évian-les-Bains is not just an architecture of great formal elegance, but above all an extraordinary technological object, a machine carefully calibrated, in equilibrium. Architectural criticism has largely d ...

A New Adjustable Glaucoma Drainage Device

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Adan Villamarin, Stéphane Bigler

PURPOSE. This work is focused on the testing of a new experimental noninvasively adjustable glaucoma drainage device (AGDD) that allows for the control of its outflow resistance to modulate intraocular pressure (IOP) in a customized fashion. METHODS. Six A ...
