An optimized self-sensing piezoelectric cantilever for micro-robotic applications

Yves Perriard, Louis Antoine Masson, Xinchang Liu

Quasi-static piezoelectric actuators are used in micro-robotics due to the small displacements they can achieve, and they have been proven to be suitable for Self-Sensing Actuation (SSA) applications. The morphology and material of an actuator, and therefo ...

Steady Three-Dimensional Rotational Flows: An Approach Via Two Stream Functions And Nash-Moser Iteration

Boris Buffoni

We consider the stationary flow of an inviscid and incompressible fluid of constant density in the region D = (0, L) x R-2. We are concerned with flows that are periodic in the second and third variables and that have prescribed flux through each point of ...

Indole Alkaloids, Macrocycles and Heterocycles : Interplay between Methodological Development and Total Synthesis

Cyril Piemontesi

An enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-terengganensine A, a heptacyclic monoterpene indole alkaloid, was performed. A short sequence allowed to obtain the enantio-enriched target in good overall yield. The synthesis featured a key asymmetric transfer h ...

Stereoselective synthesis of alkenes via base-metal-catalyzed addition reactions to alkynes and activation of hydrogen peroxide and carbon dioxide by iron complexes

Fedor Zhurkin

Alkene functionality can be found in the majority of natural products, drugs, catalysts and organic materials. Therefore, methods of C-C double bond formation constitute a cornerstone of organic synthesis. Selective formation of either (Z)- or (E)-isomer i ...

Contributions to Modelling Extremes of Spatial Data

Linda Frossard

The increasing interest in using statistical extreme value theory to analyse environmental data is mainly driven by the large impact extreme events can have. A difficulty with spatial data is that most existing inference methods for asymptotically justifie ...

Noether Theorems and Quantum Anomalies

Tudor Ratiu

A quantum anomaly is the breaking of symmetry with respect to some transformations after the quantization of a classical Hamiltonian or Lagrangian system. It is shown that both the Noether theorems (including their infinite-dimensional versions) and the ex ...

Synthesis of Adamantane Aminoethers with Antitubercular Potential

Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat

Background: Intrigued by the fact that aminoadamantane derivatives, bearing the active 1,2-ethylenediamine moiety, are promising antitubercular agents, we report herein the synthesis and the antitubercular evaluation of N,N'-substituded-4,4'-[adamantane-2, ...

Splines Are Universal Solutions of Linear Inverse Problems with Generalized TV Regularization

Michaël Unser, John Paul Ward, Julien René Pierre Fageot

Splines come in a variety of flavors that can be characterized in terms of some differential operator L. The simplest piecewise-constant model corresponds to the derivative operator. Likewise, one can extend the traditional notion of total variation by con ...

Nanoscale studies link amyloid maturity with polyglutamine diseases onset

Giovanni Dietler, Hilal Lashuel, Giovanni Longo, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Urszula Beata Cendrowska

The presence of expanded poly-glutamine (polyQ) repeats in proteins is directly linked to the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases, including Huntington's disease. However, the molecular and structural basis underlying the increased toxicity ...
