Towards a sustainable supply chain on plastic waste management : a multi-criteria optimization approach

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Rafael Amorim Leandro De Castro Amoedo, Diya Achi

Municipal solid waste and waste plastics are currently perceived as an environmental threat. Thermovalorization and recycling are the primary technologies used for disposal, with re- searchers and practitioners advocating for one or the other, but far from ...

Small scale very high speed slotless permanent magnet motors

Guillaume Paul-André Burnand

This research work has been triggered by an industrial project aimed at modelling and manufacturing a small-scale very high speed motor. Very high speed electrical motors offer the main advantage of reducing the size of a system. Indeed, at constant output ...

Bistability, Oscillations, and Bidirectional Motion of Ensemble of Hydrodynamically Coupled Molecular Motors

We analyze the collective behavior of hydrodynamically coupled molecular motors. We show that the local fluxes induced by motor displacement can induce the experimentally observed bidirectional motion of cargoes and vesicles. By means of a mean-field appro ...

Potential of Flex-PCB Winding in Coreless Tubular Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines

Yves Perriard, Bruno Dehez, François Baudart

Many applications are limited by the performance of the motors that power them. In the small power range, slotless BLDC motors are commonly used due to their intrinsic high power density and smooth torque characteristic. However, recent work has shown that ...

An optimization framework for the development of efficient one-way car-sharing systems

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Burak Boyaci, Konstantinos Zografos

Electric vehicle-sharing systems have been introduced to a number of cities as a means of increasing mobility, reducing congestion, and pollution. Electric vehicle-sharing systems can offer one or two-way services. One-way systems provide more flexibility ...

A Wide Tuning Range 4th-Order Gm-C Elliptic Filter for Wideband Multi-Standards GNSS Receivers

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Gabriele Tasselli, Saeed Ghamari

A 4 th order Gm-C elliptic low-pass filter with a wide continuous tuning range is presented. The continuous tuning is achieved by means of a new tuning circuit which adjusts the bias current of the Gm cell's input stage to control the cut-off frequency. Wi ...

Interpretation of Continuous-Time Autoregressive Processes as Random Exponential Splines

Michaël Unser, Julien René Pierre Fageot, John Paul Ward

We consider the class of continuous-time autoregressive (CAR) processes driven by (possibly non-Gaussian) Lévy white noises. When the excitation is an impulsive noise, also known as compound Poisson noise, the associated CAR process is a random non-uniform ...
