This paper investigates the achievable rates using variable length codes when transmitting independent informationover a degraded broadcast channel. In this note, we define the transmission rates from the perspective of the receivers and allow the decoders ...
Even though a large variety of innovative façade technologies has been developed to refine the control of solar radiation and increase the amount of useful natural illumination, their effective implementation in buildings is still uncommon. Increasing the ...
Open-channel beds show variations in the transverse direction due to the interaction between downstream flow, cross-stream flow, and bed topography, which may reduce the navigable width or endanger the foundations of structures. The reported preliminary la ...
The ITER ECRH upper port antenna (or launcher) will be used to drive current locally for stabilising the neoclassical tearing mode (NTM)) by depositing mm-wave power inside of the island which forms on the q=3/2 or 2 rational magnetic flux surfaces and con ...

The wave equation partial derivative tt psi - Delta psi - psi(5) = 0 in R-3 is known to exhibit finite time blowup for data of negative energy. Furthermore, it admits the special static solutions phi(x, a) = (3a)(1/4) (1 + a\x(2))- 1/2 for all a > 0 which ...
The aim of the ITER electron cyclotron heating and current drive upper launcher (UL) is to control magneto-hydrodynamic activity in the plasma., in particular neo-classical tearing modes, requiring a narrow and peaked deposition of the radio-frequency (rf) ...
Magnetic flux tubes or flux ropes in plasmas are important in nature and the laboratory. Axial boundary conditions strongly affect flux rope behavior, but this has never been systematically investigated. We experimentally demonstrate for the first time axi ...
We introduce the interference-multiple-access channel, which is a discrete memoryless channel with two transmitters and two receivers, similar to the interference channel. One receiver is required to decode the information encoded at one transmitter, the o ...

We present a phase-shifting holography method in k space that allows us to investigate the phase and amplitude of optical Bloch waves. The method is based on a Fourier space imaging technique combined with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Using a W3 photonic ...
If we assume that architecture is the art of replacing our immediate surroundings, the designed or constructed space has something in common with nature: it assumes the role of something that surrounds us as a whole. Space is something we perceive and sens ...
