Performance Comparison of Cables With Partial Transposition

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Chiara Frittitta, Federica Demattè

The need of full transposition of the current carrying elements (strands) in large cables is frequently retained as top design criterion for conductors operating in pulsed mode. However, when the transposition error, i.e., the inductance difference among t ...

Seismic Testing of Adjacent Interacting Masonry Structures

Katrin Beyer, Andrea Penna, Igor Tomic

Masonry buildings form building aggregates around the world in historical centers, which developed as the layout of the city or village densified. In these aggregates, adjacent buildings can share structural walls, connected at the interfaces by interlocki ...

On the slip burst amplitude cutoff in dislocation-rich microcrystals

Andreas Mortensen, Luciano Borasi

The plastic deformation of small-scale face-centered cubic metals exhibits intermittent slip burst events that appear on stress-strain curves as sudden strain jumps and/or load drops. These events are generally attributed to the avalanche-like cooperative ...

FISHFUZZ: Catch Deeper Bugs by Throwing Larger Nets

Mathias Josef Payer, Jiayuan Zhang, Yuqing Zhang, Flavio Toffalini, Han Zheng

Fuzzers effectively explore programs to discover bugs. Greybox fuzzers mutate seed inputs and observe their execution. Whenever a seed reaches new behavior (e.g., new code or higher execution frequency), it is stored for further mutation. Greybox fuzzers d ...

Specific Gestalt principles cannot explain (un)crowding

Michael Herzog, Oh-Hyeon Choung, Einat Rashal

The standard physiological model has serious problems accounting for many aspects of vision, particularly when stimulus configurations become slightly more complex than the ones classically used, e.g., configurations of Gabors rather than only one or a few ...

Testing For The Rank Of A Covariance Operator

Victor Panaretos

How can we discern whether the covariance operator of a stochastic pro-cess is of reduced rank, and if so, what its precise rank is? And how can we do so at a given level of confidence? This question is central to a great deal of methods for functional dat ...

Full-scale testing of European steel beams with reduced beam section under reversed cyclic loading

Dimitrios Lignos, Hiroyuki Inamasu

Steel beams with reduced beam section (RBS) are often used as part of prequalified connections in seismic regions. However, RBS connections are not as common in Europe. Reasons relate to easiness in fabrication, which requires on-site welding, and the seis ...
