Umbrella Meshes: Elastic Mechanisms for Freeform Shape Deployment

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Uday Kusupati, Tian Chen, Yingying Ren, Davide Pellis

We present a computational inverse design framework for a new class of volumetric deployable structures that have compact rest states and deploy into bending-active 3D target surfaces. Umbrella meshes consist of elastic beams, rigid plates, and hinge joint ...

Fourier Collocation and Reduced Basis Methods for Fast Modeling of Compressible Flows

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Deep Ray

A projection-based reduced order model (ROM) based on the Fourier collocation method is proposed for compressible flows. The incorporation of localized artificial viscosity model and filtering is pursued to enhance the robustness and accuracy of the ROM fo ...

On the adjustment, calibration and orientation of drone photogrammetry and laser-scanning

Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Centimetre level precision mapping is essential for many applications such as land-use, infrastructure inspection, cultural heritage preservation, and construction site monitoring. However, the acquisition and its preparation (in particular the setting of ...

Rebounds of deformed cavitation bubbles

Mohamed Farhat, Danail Obreschkow, Outi Supponen

Presented here are experiments clarifying how the deformation of cavitation bubbles affects their rebound. Rebound bubbles carry the remaining energy of a bubble following its initial collapse, which dissipates energy mainly through shock waves, jets, and ...

Scale anomalies, states, and rates in conformal field theory

Marc Gillioz

This paper presents two methods to compute scale anomaly coefficients in conformal field theories (CFTs), such as the c anomaly in four dimensions, in terms of the CFT data. We first use Euclidean position space to show that the anomaly coefficient of a fo ...

Progress in airborne gravimetry by combining strapdown inertial and new satellite observations via dynamic networks

Jan Skaloud

We revisit the concept of scalar gravity ano- maly determination by an airborne strapdown INS - GNSS system. We built on the previously investigated concepts (mainly within 1995-2005 period) while trying to decrease the error spectrum of the system caused ...

Bedrock topography reconstruction of glaciers from surface topography and mass-balance data

Marco Picasso, Laurent Michel, Heinz Blatter, Martin Funk

Three methods based on the three-dimensional shallow ice approximation of glacier flow are devised that infer a glacier's subglacial topography from the observation of its time-evolving surface and mass balance. The quasi-stationary inverse method relying ...

Energy expenditure estimation using accelerometry and heart rate for multiple sclerosis and healthy older adults

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Arami, Fabien Massé, Alan Kevin Bourke

Accurate estimation of Energy Expenditure (EE) in ambulatory settings provides greater insight into the underlying relation between different human physical activity and health. This paper describes the development and validation of energy expenditure esti ...

The quest for the most spherical bubble: experimental setup and data overview

Mohamed Farhat, Nicolas Dorsaz, Danail Obreschkow, Philipp Kobel, Aurèle De Bosset, Marc Tinguely

We describe a recently realized experiment producing the most spherical cavitation bubbles today. The bubbles grow inside a liquid from a point plasma generated by a nanosecond laser pulse. Unlike in previous studies, the laser is focussed by a parabolic m ...

Development of a robotic mobile mapping system by vision-aided inertial navigation

Fadi Atef Bayoud

Vision-based inertial-aided navigation is gaining ground due to its many potential applications. In previous decades, the integration of vision and inertial sensors was monopolised by the defence industry due to its complexity and unrealistic economic burd ...
