On the possibility of extending the service life of winter roads using renewable energy sources

It is hard to overestimate the role of winter roads in the land logistics of the northern regions. In recent years, climate change has not only significantly reduced the service life of winter roads, but also made them less predictable. This forces transpo ...

Combination of Neurotechnologies Towards Personalized Neurorehabilitation for Stroke Patients

Claudia Bigoni

"Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages" is the third sustainable development goal for the United Nations Agenda of 2030. This doctoral thesis fully embodied this objective by targeting stroke, a leading cause of death and disabili ...

Strengthened Information-theoretic Bounds on the Generalization Error

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Amedeo Roberto Esposito, Ibrahim Issa

The following problem is considered: given a joint distribution P XY and an event E, bound P XY (E) in terms of P X P Y (E) (where P X P Y is the product of the marginals of P XY ) and a measure of dependence of X and Y. Such bounds have direct application ...

A nonparametric method for producing isolines of bivariate exceedance probabilities

Emeric Rolland Georges Thibaud

We present a method for drawing isolines indicating regions of equal joint exceedance probability for bivariate data. The method relies on bivariate regular variation, a dependence framework widely used for extremes. The method we utilize for characterizin ...

Professional cyclic high mobility: modelling state transitions

Michel Bierlaire, Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Alexis Gumy, Matthieu Marie Cochon de Lapparent

This paper aims to investigate the combination of exogenous and dynamic endogenous variables in professional high mobility patterns. It is based on a panel dataset of the Job Mobilities and Family Lives in Europe research project conducted between 2007 and ...

The interplay of conditional NCAM-knockout and chronic unpredictable stress leads to increased aggression in mice

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Orbicia Riccio Wicht, Olivia Zanoletti, Céline Fournier

The neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) is a key regulator of brain plasticity. Substantial evidence indicates that NCAM is down-regulated by exposure to sustained stress and chronic stress seems to lead to increased aggression. In addition, constitutiona ...

Piezoelectric nonlinearity and frequency dispersion of the direct piezoelectric response of BiFeO3 ceramics

Dragan Damjanovic, Marija Kosec

We report on the frequency and stress dependence of the direct piezoelectric d33 coefficient in BiFeO3 ceramics. The measurements reveal considerable piezoelectric nonlinearity, i.e., dependence of d33 on the amplitude of the dynamic stress. The nonlinear ...

Trap-limited transport in rubrene transistors

Libero Zuppiroli, Marie-Noëlle Bussac, Steven Konezny

The charge carrier mobility in the transport channel of an organic transistor is estimated within the framework of a trap-and-release model. The model accounts for the observed dependence of the mobility on the dielectric constant "epsilon" of the gate ins ...

Direct monitoring of the excited state population in biased SiGe valence band quantum wells by femtosecond resolved photocurrent experiments

The authors report a direct measurement of the optical phonon intersubband hole relaxation time in a SiGe heterostructure and a quantitative determination of hole relaxation under electrically active conditions. The results were obtained by femtosecond res ...
