This paper presents a study and experimentation of a hybrid energy storage system prototype, based on Compressed Air, where the charging and discharging is done within maximum efficiency conditions of the volumetric machine. As the maximum efficiency condi ...
A new methodology is presented, based on energy-flow analysis on systems. The aim is to obtain a representation of energy flows between the various sources of a complex system, via energy storage devices connected together with electrical and mechanical co ...
Organic-inorganic hybrid coatings are becoming increasingly important due to their unique property combination [1, 2], including high optical transparency, improved scratch and abrasion resistance and excellent weathering, thanks to the synergism between t ...
We report on the observation of a large production of runaway electrons during a disruptive termination of discharges heated with lower-hybrid waves at the Frascati Tokamak Upgrade. The runaway current plateaus, which can carry up to 80% of the predisrupti ...

The problem of driving a collection of mobile robots to a given target location is studied in the context of partial difference equations. In particular, we are interested in achieving this transfer while ensuring that the agents stay in the convex polytop ...
Real-time crowd motion planning requires fast, realistic methods for path planning as well as obstacle avoidance. The difficulty to find a satisfying trade-off between efficiency and believability is particularly challenging, and prior techniques tend to focu ...
De nos jours les régions urbaines grandissent, se densifient et des espaces pour vivre sont construits partout pour des familles et leurs enfants. Mais lors de la planification on oublie encore souvent de se demander, comment vieillir harmonieusement dans ...
We propose a new type of “hybrid” ultrasonic driving principle for our monolithic piezoelectric actuators, which consist of simple electrode patterning on a PZT ceramic substrate The operating principle of the proposed USM is based on the conversion of ell ...
This review highlights several classes of natural product hybrids. First, structural hybrids emanating from different biosynthetic pathways exemplified by the polyketide peptide alkaloid anachelin are discussed. Another class is the so-called functional hy ...
