Emergence of representative signals for sudden stratospheric warmings beyond current predictable lead times

Major sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) are extreme wintertime circulation events of the Arctic stratosphere that are accompanied by a breakdown of the polar vortex and are considered an important source of predictability of tropospheric weather on subs ...

Experimental study of impulse waves generated by viscoplastic fluid

Zhenzhu Meng

Landslide-generated waves, also called impulse waves, occur as a result of the intrusion of landslides (such as rock falls, debris flows, and avalanches) into bodies of water (such as lakes, reservoirs, and seas). The objective of this thesis was to study ...

Stability of standing waves for a nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with delta potentials

François Samer Genoud

In this paper, we study local well-posedness and orbital stability of standing waves for a singularly perturbed one-dimensional nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation. We first establish local well-posedness of the Cauchy problem by a fixed point argument. Unlike ...

Transposition of Francis turbine cavitation compliance at partial load to different operating conditions

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior

Francis turbines operating in part load conditions experience a swirling flow at the runner outlet leading to the development of a precessing cavitation vortex rope in the draft tube. This cavitation vortex rope changes drastically the velocity of pressure ...

Electroacoustic absorption: towards room equalization in the low-frequency range

Hervé Lissek

The occurrence of standing waves in room dramatically affects the sound rendering in the low-frequency range ([20-200 Hz]), and solutions of the state-of-the-art are incapable to damp such modes over the whole low-frequency band. This talk will present a n ...

On the stability of travelling waves with vorticity obtained by minimization

Boris Buffoni

We modify the approach of Burton and Toland Comm. Pure Appl. Math. LXIV. 975-1007 (2011) to show the existence of periodic surface water waves with vorticity in order that it becomes suited to a stability analysis. This is achieved by enlarging the functio ...

Modelling and Optimal Design of a Ring-type Structure for the Generation of a Traveling Wave

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Dan Shi

Traveling wave generation in a ring type stator has been studied. The basic working principle to create traveling wave has been modelled by the superposition of two orthogonal standing waves. Theoretical analysis shows that the length to radius ratio affec ...

Optimization of electroacoustic resonators for semi-active room equalization in the low-frequency range

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet

At low frequencies, standing waves within the room cause large frequency-response variations in the listening environment, such as audio rooms or recording studios. This unwanted phenomenon has a significant impact on the sound quality of an audio system. ...

Study on room modal equalization at low frequencies with electroacoustic absorbers

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Iris Rigas

Nowadays, requirements for acoustic treatments in rooms are ever more demanding in terms of performance and compactness. A recurring issue in closed spaces is the occurrence of standing waves and acoustic interferences at low frequencies. These unwanted ph ...

Opto-acoustic coupling and Brillouin phenomena in microstructure optical fibers

Luc Thévenaz, Stella Foaleng Mafang, Duc Minh Nguyen

Like photonic crystals have revolutionized the way of manipulating optical waves at the sub-micron scale, phononic crystals have more recently played similar decisive role for sound waves, or more generally elastic waves. Then, the idea of coupling light a ...
