Gyrokinetic moment-based simulations of the Dimits shift

Paolo Ricci, Baptiste Jimmy Frei, Antoine Cyril David Hoffmann

We present a convergence study of the gyromoment (GM) approach, which is based on projecting the gyrokinetic distribution function onto a Hermite–Laguerre polynomial basis, focused on the cyclone base case (CBC) (Lin et al., Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 83, no. ...

Legacy effect of green manure crops fertilized with calcium phosphite on maize production and soil properties

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Thomas Guillaume, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Mario Fontana

Recycling phosphorus (P) is crucial to meet future P demand for crop production. We investigated the possibility to use calcium phosphite (Ca-Phi) waste, an industrial by-product, as P fertilizer following the oxidation of phosphite (Phi) to phosphate (Pi) ...

Techno-economic assessment of bioethanol production from lignocellulose by consortium-based consolidated bioprocessing at industrial scale

Oliver Kröcher

Lignocellulose-based biofuels are of major importance to mitigate the impact of international traffic and transport on climate change while sustaining agricultural land for food supply. Highly integrated systems like consolidated bioprocessing (CBP), where ...

A heterogeneous microbial consortium producing short-chain fatty acids from lignocellulose

Jeremy Luterbacher

Microbial consortia are a promising alternative to monocultures of genetically modified microorganisms for complex biotransformations. We developed a versatile consortium-based strategy for the direct conversion of lignocellulose to short-chain fatty acids ...

Computational Design of Steady 3D Dissection Puzzles

Bailin Deng, Peng Song, Xiaofei Wang

Dissection puzzles require assembling a common set of pieces into multiple distinct forms. Existing works focus on creating 2D dissection puzzles that form primitive or naturalistic shapes. Unlike 2D dissection puzzles that could be supported on a tabletop ...

Interplay between optical, viscous, and elastic forces on an optically trapped Brownian particle immersed in a viscoelastic fluid

László Forró, Sylvia Jeney

We provide a detailed study of the interplay between the different interactions which appear in the Brownian motion of a micronsized sphere immersed in a viscoelastic fluid measured with optical trapping interferometry. To explore a wide range of viscous, ...

Effect of a noisy driving field on a bistable polariton system

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, François Morier-Genoud, Marcia Portella Oberli, Stéphane Trebaol, Hadis Abbaspour, Grégory Chilpéric Sallen

We report on the effect of noise on the characteristics of the bistable polariton emission system. The present experiment provides a time-resolved access to the polariton emission intensity. We evidence the noise-induced transitions between the two stable ...

3D ALE Finite-Element Method for Two-Phase Flows With Phase Change

John Richard Thome, Navid Borhani, Gustavo Rabello Dos Anjos

We seek to study numerically two-phase flow phenomena with phase change through the finite-element method (FEM) and the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) framework. This method is based on the so-called one-fluid formulation; thus, only one set of equati ...

Design and construction of a portable whole-cell living bacterial biosensor for the detection of arsenic in water

Nina Buffi

Contamination of drinking water with arsenic is a recurring problem in both industrialized and developing countries. Supplies for large populations can have concentrations much higher than the permissible levels, set by the World Health Organization (WHO) ...

Automatically calibrating the viewing direction of optic-flow sensors

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Adrien Briod

Because of their low weight, cost and energy consumption, optic-flow sensors attract growing interest in robotics for tasks such as self-motion estimation or depth measurement. Most applications require a large number of these sensors, which involves a fai ...

Impact of biofuels production on land-use change and greenhouse gas emissions : methodological framework and system dynamics modeling applied to soybean-based biodiesel production in Argentina

Luis Alberto Panichelli

This research assesses the effect of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission constraints imposed in biofuel importing countries on the export potential of biofuel producing countries. Several countries are promoting the introduction of biofuels on their energy matri ...

Life Cycle Assessment of Soybean-Based Biodiesel in Argentina for Export

Edgard Gnansounou, Arnaud Dauriat, Luis Alberto Panichelli

Background, aim and scope. Regional specificities are a key factor when analyzing the environmental impact of a biofuel pathway through a life cycle assessment (LCA). Due to different energy mixes, transport distances, agricultural practices and land use c ...

Modulation of astrocytic metabolic phenotype by proinflammatory cytokines

Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman

Astrocytes play an important role in nervous system homeostasis. In particular, they contribute to the regulation of local energy metabolism and to oxidative stress defence. In previous experiments, we showed that long-term treatment with interleukin 1alph ...
