The analysis of incommensurate structures is computationally more difficult than that of normal ones. This is mainly a result of the structure-factor expression, which involves numerical integrations or infinite series of Bessel functions. Both approaches ...
The analysis of an observed univariate time series is often undertaken in order to get a prediction of a future event. With this purpose one can fix a class of predictors from which the optimal one will be identified and estimated. The more simple and comm ...
Many important classification problems are \emph{polychotomies}, \emph{i.e.} the data are organized into K classes with K>2. Given an unknown function F:Ømega→{1,…,K} representing a polychotomy, an algorithm aimed at ``learning'' this p ...
The QUench Experiment on Long Length (QUELL) in the SULTAN Facility is planned to investigate the quench propagation and detection of a conductor with ITER relevant geometry and scaled performance. The objective of this study is to show the ability of QUEL ...
An identification method for Preisach-type models of hysteresis is presented. By using a phenomenological Preisach-type model for hysteresis we can obtain an exact model for the magnetisation hysteresis in the cases of tapes with strip and with elliptical ...
The purpose of this monograph is (a) to lay the foundations for a conceptual approach to bounded cohomology; (b) to harvest the resulting applications in rigidity theory. Of central importance is the new interplay between measure theory, amenability, Banac ...
This short report summarizes the contribution of the project 'Java for teaching and research'. A website has been created to allow interested users to download the material produced during the project. The site is reachable at http://lcavwww.epfl.ch/~balme ...
Many important classification problems are emphpolychotomies, emphi.e. the data are organized into K classes with K>2. Given an unknown function F:Omegato1,dots,K representing a polychotomy, an algorithm aimed at ``learning'' this polychotomy ...
The spatial step size for the second-order accurate Muskingum-Cunge (M-C) method is determined by the spatial weighting factor. Both the spatial weighting factor and the time step must be selected judiciously to obtain accurate solutions. In this study, ac ...
Different measurement techniques have been used to detect cavitation on a Francis turbine model. The results are compared to those obtained on the prototype and presented in the first of this series of articles. The runner mode! used for that study is buil ...
