Touch and Closeness in Naturally Organized Activities

Countless aspects of touch and closeness have been questioned in an unprecedented way during the recent Covid epidemic. Social practices as banal as greetings were both reflexively and practically challenged and sometimes deeply altered, resulting in painf ...

The Structure of Free Polyphony

Christoph Finkensiep

The human ability to perceive and understand music is remarkable. From an unstructured stream of acoustic input it creates a wide range of experiences, from psycho-acoustic effects to emotional and aesthetic responses. One such set of phenomena is the expe ...

Localized model order reduction and domain decomposition methods for coupled heterogeneous systems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Niccolo' Discacciati

We propose a model order reduction technique to accurately approximate the behavior of multi-component systems without any a-priori knowledge of the coupled model. In the offline phase, we construct independent surrogate models by solving the local problem ...

Minding Rights: Mapping Ethical and Legal Foundations of 'Neurorights'

Marcello Ienca

The rise of neurotechnologies, especially in combination with artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods for brain data analytics, has given rise to concerns around the protection of mental privacy, mental integrity and cognitive liberty - often framed as ...

Bacterial colonization in realistic environments: how mechanics impact biofilm formation in the wild and during infection

Tamara Rossy

A variety of physical inputs acts onto bacteria in nature. However, these are most often ignored in the studies of their physiology. There is now increasing evidence indicating that bacteria respond to physical stimuli, including mechanical forces. Yet, qu ...

The irreducibility of vision: Gestalt, crowding and the fundamentals of vision

Michael Herzog

What is fundamental in vision has been discussed for millennia. For philosophical realists and the physiological approach to vision, the objects of the outer world are truly given, and failures to perceive objects properly, such as in illusions, are just s ...

A Theory of Value for Service Ecosystems

Blagovesta Hristova Kostova

In this thesis, we present a theory of value for the design and analysis of service ecosystems. The theory is based on general systems thinking. The concept of a system is used for relating knowledge from different disciplines (such as software engineering ...

Effects of item distinctiveness on the retrieval of objects and object-location bindings from visual working memory

Yury Markov

Visual working memory (VWM) is prone to interference from stored items competing for its limited capacity. Distinctiveness or similarity of the items is acknowledged to affect this competition, such that poor item distinctiveness causes a failure to discri ...

Il demone dell'analogia: Ovvero affinità e divergenze fra il compagno aristotele e noi

Nicola Braghieri

This laconic discourse uses the Aristotelian authority to define the role of the analogical procedure in the government of the architectural composition. Respecting its ambiguous balance between mathematical method and attitude of the imagination, analogy ...

Proof-of-concept analytical instrument for label-free optical deconvolution of protein species in a mixture

Gabriel Aeppli

The adoption of process analytical technologies by the biopharmaceutical industry can reduce the cost of therapeutic drugs and facilitate investigation of new bioprocesses. Control of critical process parameters to retain critical product quality attribute ...

Analytical Expressions for Lightning Electromagnetic Fields With Arbitrary Channel-Base Current. Part II: Validation and Computational Performance

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

This article provides the implementation procedure, the validation, and some considerations on the computational efforts of the analytical expressions developed for the lightning electromagnetic fields presented in the companion paper. The validation is pr ...

Koolhaas' Revision of Foucault's panopticon; or how architecture and philosophy just met

André Patrão Neves De Frias Martins

Architecture and philosophy have engaged with one other, directly, marginally, or just simply implicitly, in the works and discourse of academics, practitioners, and critics, most evidently in architectural modernism, postmodernism, and most intensively in ...

Architecture / Philosophy: how, why, and what the questions seek in three case-studies from the late 20th century

André Patrão Neves De Frias Martins

Architecture and philosophy are no strangers to one another. In philosophical writings, architecture appears referred to, spoken of, described, defined, categorized, and figuratively used. In architectural discourse, by theoreticians and practitioners alik ...

Lieu hologrammatique, un concept et une méthodologie complexe de mesure de l'organisation spatiale des réalités sociales

Thibault Pierre Louis Romany

The urban is a complex phenomenon whose exploration remains a important scientific challenge. Choosing complex thought in order to renew our capacities for understanding and action on and with the urban is not trivial. The complex thought developed by Edga ...

Reconstruction Methods for Cryo-Electron Microscopy: From Model-based to Data-driven

Laurène Donati

The topic of this thesis is the development of new reconstruction methods for cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Cryo-EM has revolutionized the field of structural biology over the last decade and now permits the regular discovery of biostructures. Yet, t ...

Get real: Orbitofrontal cortex mediates the ability to sense reality in early adolescents

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Roberto Martuzzi, Lorena Gonçalves de Alcântara e Freitas Krikler, Vanessa Siffredi

Introduction Orbitofrontal reality filtering (ORFi) is a memory mechanism that distinguishes whether a thought is relevant to present reality or not. In adults, it is mediated by the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). This region is still not fully developed in p ...

Rate of change of frequency under line contingencies in high voltage electric power networks with uncertainties

Philippe René Joseph Jacquod, Melvyn Sandy Tyloo, Robin Delabays

In modern electric power networks with fast evolving operational conditions, assessing the impact of contingencies is becoming more and more crucial. Contingencies of interest can be roughly classified into nodal power disturbances and line faults. Despite ...

Autonomous illumination control for localization microscopy

Suliana Manley, Baptiste Romain Samuel Ottino, Kyle Michael Douglass, Marcel Stefko

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy improves spatial resolution, but this comes at a loss of image throughput and presents unique challenges in identifying optimal acquisition parameters. Microscope automation routines can offset these drawbacks, but ...

Laue micro-diffraction and crystal plasticity finite element simulations to reveal a vein structure in fatigued Cu

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Nicolò Grilli, Ainara Irastorza Landa

The formation of a vein during cyclic shearing of a single copper crystal oriented for single slip can be followed in transmission Laue diffraction by analyzing the spatially resolved lattice rotation evolution. Because Laue transmission integrates the sig ...

Altitude: architecture et environnement de haute montagne

Estelle Lépine

At the centre of the research is the preservation of the countryside which is highlighted and studied through an architectural approach which focuses on cabins in the high mountains. The projects must reflect upon territorial, global and sustainable aspect ...
