The connections cortical neurons forms are different in each individual human or animal. Although there are known and determined large scale connections between areas of the brain that are common across individuals, the local connectivity on smaller scales ...
Abstract Tolerance analysis is an important step to validate assembly process planning scenario. Simulations are generally performed to evaluate the expected geometrical variations of the assembled product. When the simulation models take into account part ...
Car exhaust manifolds are critical components subjected to cyclic thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) during function. To reduce design costs, robust numerical design tools are required to assess their behaviour and lifetime. Manifolds are constructed by weldi ...
In this study a series of swelling and breakthrough tests were performed on a target S/B mixture in proportion 80/20 in dry mass. Tests were carried out on specimen compacted to the same dry density but changing the osmotic suction of the pore water. The t ...
Acting in our environment and experiencing ourselves as conscious agents are fundamental aspects of human selfhood. While large advances have been made with respect to understanding human sensorimotor control from an engineering approach, knowledge about i ...

With the introduction of higher seismic design forces in the Swiss loading standard of 2003 most unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings failed to satisfy the seismic design check. For this reason, in new construction projects, a number of URM walls are nowad ...
The paper presents an experimental and modelling approach for the soil water retention behaviour of two deformable soils. The objective is to investigate the physical mechanisms that govern the soil water retention properties and to propose a constitutive ...
l existe une ambiguïté sur la réalité de la présence de l’espace au cinéma. On pourrait dire que le cinéma est, par excellence, un art spatial. En fait, on peut discuter, avec des arguments forts, cette évidence apparente. Cet article s’intéresse plus part ...
Planning and design of urban infrastructure systems in general and transportation systems in particular, require a multidisciplinary effort that is heavily embedded in a system-of-systems perspective. The envisioned research direction is a bottom-up approa ...
