Synthesizing efficient systems in probabilistic environments

We present a formalism, algorithms and tools to synthesise reactive systems that behave efficiently, i.e., which achieve an optimal trade-off between a given cost and reward model. Synthesis aims to automatically generate a program from a specification. Mo ...

Validation of NLFEA of reinforced concrete walls under bidirectional loading

Katrin Beyer, João Saraiva Esteves Pacheco de Almeida, Beatrice Belletti

Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis (NLFEA) of the inelastic behaviour of RC walls are often carried out for uni-directional (in-plane) horizontal cyclic loading. In this paper the behaviour of RC walls with different cross-sections (T-shaped and U-shaped) s ...

Hydro-mechanical analysis of volcanic ash slopes during rainfall

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, John Eichenberger, Chao Li

Rainfall-induced landslides in volcanic ashes represent a major natural hazard in many regions around the world. Due to their loose structure, volcanic ash slopes are prone to rainfall-induced landslides. The paper presents a continuum modelling approach f ...

Stress and the social brain: Behavioral effects and neurobiological mechanisms

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

Stress often affects our social lives. When undergoing high-level or persistent stress, individuals frequently retract from social interactions and become irritable and hostile. Predisposition to antisocial behaviours — including social detachment and viol ...

A review of the fire behaviour of pultruded GFRP structural profiles for civil engineering applications

Thomas Keller, Yu Bai

Pultruded glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) profiles are finding increasing applications in civil engineering structures, owing to the several advantages they offer over traditional materials. However, due to the combustible nature of their polymer mat ...

The future of human cerebral cartography: a novel approach

Henry Markram, Richard Frackowiak

Cerebral cartography can be understood in a limited, static, neuroanatomical sense. Temporal information from electrical recordings contributes information on regional interactions adding a functional dimension. Selective tagging and imaging of molecules a ...

On the resilience of remote traumatic memories against exposure therapy-mediated attenuation

Johannes Gräff

How to attenuate traumatic memories has long been the focus of intensive research efforts, as traumatic memories are extremely persistent and heavily impinge on the quality of life. Despite the fact that traumatic memories are often not readily amenable to ...

Water retention behaviour and microstructural evolution of MX-80 granular bentonite during wetting and drying cycles

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Ali Seiphoori

MX-80 bentonite used in engineered barrier systems would be subjected to wetting and drying cycles. To assess the response of the material under such circumstances, a comprehensive experimental characterisation of the water retention behaviour of compacted ...
