A framework for Higgs characterisation

We introduce a framework, based on an effective field theory approach, that allows one to perform characterisation studies of the boson recently discovered at the LHC, for all the relevant channels and in a consistent, systematic and accurate way. The prod ...

A Modeling Framework for Analyzing the Viability of Service Systems

Gil Regev, Alain Wegmann, Arash Golnam

Recent research has explored the principles of service system viability based on systems inquiry invoking perspectives from Systems Theory and Cybernetics in particular Stafford Beer’s viable systems model (VSM). However based on Banathy & Jenlink (2004), ...

Desargues and Leibniz: In the Black Box - A Mathematical Model of the Leibnizian Monad

Bernard Cache

Here Bernard Cache provides a detailed analysis of a paper written in 1636 by the French mathematician, architect and engineer, Girard Desargues. Desargues is best known as the founder of projective geometry. Cache explains how he initally developed this s ...

Utilisation des outils du système modulaire gradué (SMG) pour estimer les impacts des rejets pluviaux urbains: Avantages et limitations

David Andrew Barry, Luca Rossi, Kathrin Schneider

Today water bodies are suffering from numerous anthropogenic impacts. One of the key players is urban drainage. The directive STORM published by the VSA in 2007 proposes a procedure for an immission oriented strategy for remediation of urban drainage. At t ...

Analytic Sensing: Direct Recovery of Point Sources from Planar Cauchy Boundary Measurements

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thierry Blu, Djano Kandaswamy

Inverse problems play an important role in engineering. A problem that often occurs in electromagnetics (e.g. EEG) is the estimation of the locations and strengths of point sources from boundary data. We propose a new technique, for which we coin the term ...

Formalization of the RM-ODP foundations based on the Triune Continuum Paradigm

Alain Wegmann, Andrey Naumenko

The subject of research in this paper is RM-ODP, an ISO/ITU-T international standard. We investigate an important challenge that the standard faces, specifically the absence of a satisfactory formalization of its proposed conceptual framework. We report on ...

Erweiterung des Funktionalismus 1930-1950

Christoph Wieser

Functionalism serves as the guiding concept of this piece of work, on the example of which shall be traced the changes that took place in modern architecture between 1930 and 1950. This choice seems appropriate since Functionalism is a particularly relevan ...

The influence of molecular dynamics on divertor detachment in TCV

Yanis Andrebe, Richard Pitts, Jan Horacek, Roland Behn, Marco Wischmeier

If vibrationally excited molecules are discretised into individual species and proper account is taken of the toroidal geometry in simulating neutrals, some improvement can be made in simulating the anomalous detachment behaviour seen at the outer target o ...
