Elastoplastic description of sudden failure in athermal amorphous materials during quasistatic loading

Matthieu Wyart, Thomas Willem Jan de Geus, Marko Popovic

The response of amorphous materials to an applied strain can be continuous or instead discontinuous if the initial configuration is very stable. We study theoretically how such a stress drop emerges as the system's initial stability is increased. We show t ...

Multi-scale modeling of the urban meteorology: Integration of a new canopy model in the WRF model

Dasaraden Mauree, Alain Clappier

Urban parametrizations have been recently developed and integrated in mesoscale meteorological models for a better reproduction of urban heat islands and to compute building energy consumption. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the value of ...

Reliable estimates of predictive uncertainty for an Alpine catchment using a non-parametric methodology

Anton Schleiss, Bettina Schaefli, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

Uncertainty affects hydrological modelling efforts from the very measurements (or forecasts) that serve as inputs to the more or less inaccurate predictions that are produced. Uncertainty is truly inescapable in hydrology and yet, due to the theoretical an ...

Cloud Motion Identification Algorithms Based on All-Sky Images to Support Solar Irradiance Forecast

Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Enrica Scolari, Lydie Catherine Magnone

Cloud motion is a cause of direct irradiance variations at ground level and determines significant fluctuations of PV generation. In this work, we investigate on how integrating information on clouds motion extracted from all-sky images into a time series- ...

A System and Method for Dispatching an Operation with Heterogeneous Prosumers

Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan, Emil Namor

A method for dispatching an operation of a distribution feeder of electrical power into a grid with heterogeneous prosumers, the method comprising the steps of establishing a dispatch plan on a computer by using forecast data of an aggregated consumption a ...

Lightning Potential Index performances in multimicrophysical cloud-resolving simulations of a back-building mesoscale convective system: The Genoa 2014 event

Martina Lagasio

Severe weather events are responsible for hundreds of fatalities and millions of euros of damage every year on the Mediterranean basin. Lightning activity is a characteristic phenomenon of severe weather and often accompanies torrential rainfall, which, un ...

Pedestrian management strategies for improving flow dynamics in transportation hubs

Michel Bierlaire, Riccardo Scarinci, Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

Forecasts predict a strong increase of the demand of public transport facilities in the next decades, close to doubling the number of users in the "Arc lémanique" area. This increase in demand can lead to congestion and poor level-of-service inside transpo ...

Learning Social Etiquette: Human Trajectory Understanding In Crowded Scenes

Alexandre Massoud Alahi

Humans navigate crowded spaces such as a university campus by following common sense rules based on social etiquette. In this paper, we argue that in order to enable the design of new target tracking or trajectory forecasting methods that can take full adv ...

Inventory routing with non-stationary stochastic demands

Michel Bierlaire, Sacha Varone, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon, Iliya Dimitrov Markov

We solve a rich logistical problem inspired from practice, in which a heterogeneous fixed fleet of vehicles is used for collecting recyclable waste from large containers over a finite planning horizon. Each container is equipped with a sensor, which commun ...
