Ascent and movement of buoyant fluids in the lithosphere

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Andreas Möri, Carlo Peruzzo

Hydraulic fractures are driven by an internal fluid pressure exceeding the minimum compressive stress, propagating in a direction perpendicular to the latter. This class of tensile fractures has gained interest over the last fifty years due to the developm ...

Learning Optimal Impedance Control During Complex 3D Arm Movements

Sylvain Calinon

In daily life, humans use their limbs to perform various movements to interact with an external environment. Thanks to limb's variable and adaptive stiffness, humans can adapt their movements to unstable dynamics of the external environments. The underlyin ...

Inverse Modelling and Predictive Inference in Continuum Mechanics: a Data-Driven Approach

Claire Marianne Charlotte Capelo

The explosive growth of machine learning in the age of data has led to a new probabilistic and data-driven approach to solving very different types of problems. In this paper we study the feasibility of using such data-driven algorithms to solve classic ph ...

Towards Understanding of Human Kinematic Coordination Patterns in Bimanual Fine Manipulation Tasks

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao, Anaïs Betsabeh Haget

Skills that require the collaboration of both arms are common in humans’ everyday activities, and the coordination of upper limbs is key to human bimanual dexterity. The Skill Acquisition in Humans and Robots (ERC) project aims at obtaining a better unders ...

Active microrheology in corrugated channels

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

We analyze the dynamics of a tracer particle embedded in a bath of hard spheres confined in a channel of varying section. By means of Brownian dynamics simulations, we apply a constant force on the tracer particle and discuss the dependence of its mobility ...

Haptic Guidance with a Soft Exoskeleton Reduces Error in Drone Teleoperation

Dario Floreano, Auke Ijspeert, Stefano Mintchev, Amy Roning Wu, Carine Rognon

Haptic guidance has been shown to improve performance in many fields as it can give additional information without overloading other sensory channels such as vision or audition. Our group is investigating new intuitive ways to interact with robots, and we ...

Assessing the potential of atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to probe reversible protein-protein recognition and binding

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata

Protein-protein recognition and binding are governed by diffusion, noncovalent forces and conformational flexibility, entangled in a way that only molecular dynamics simulations can dissect at high resolution. Here we exploited ubiquitin's noncovalent dime ...

Optical force sensing element and microsurgical instrument

Simon Nessim Henein

The present invention related to an optical force sensing element for microsurgical instruments (22), for measuring force F in three orthogonal directions x, y, z, comprising a monolithic cylinder structure (1), a cylindrical surface (4) and a top surface ...

Interaction of a point charge with the surface of a uniaxial dielectric

Primoz Rebernik Ribic

We analyze the force on a point charge moving at relativistic speeds parallel to the surface of a uniaxial dielectric. Two cases are examined: a lossless dielectric with no dispersion and a dielectric with a plasma-type response. The treatment focuses on t ...
