A review in snow saltation dynamics and its implications for the surface mass balance

Varun Sharma, Michael Lehning, Franziska Gerber, Daniela Brito Melo, Francesco Comola, Armin Sigmund

Snow covered regions are frequently subjected to strong winds. This leads to the erosion of the snow surface and the occurrence of drifting and blowing snow events. To correctly predict and model these phenomena is of the utmost importance to assess snowpa ...

Effect of the tangential NBI current drive on the stability of pressure and energetic particle driven MHD modes in LHD plasma

Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Joao Varela

The aim of the present study is to analyze the stability of the pressure gradient driven modes (PM) and Alfven eigenmodes (AE) in the large helical device (LHD) plasma if the rotational transform profile is modified by the current drive of the tangential n ...

Design and Structural Optimization of Topological Interlocking Assemblies

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Peng Song

We study assemblies of convex rigid blocks regularly arranged to approximate a given freeform surface. Our designs rely solely on the geometric arrangement of blocks to form a stable assembly, neither requiring explicit connectors or complex joints, nor re ...

Hydraulic performance evaluation of a micro-turbine with counter rotating runners by experimental investigation and numerical simulation

François Avellan, Elena Vagnoni, Cécile Münch-Alligné, Loïc Andolfatto

The development of energy recovery systems on existing water utility networks is a new challenge for increasing the sustainability of electricity generation mix. The concept of the new micro-turbine with counter rotating runners braces this goal by allowin ...

MATHICSE Technical Report : A priori error for unilateral contact problems with Lagrange multipliers and IsoGeometric Analyis

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Mathieu Jonathan Fabre

In this paper, we consider unilateral contact problem without friction between a rigid body_and deformable one in the framework of isogeometric analysis. We present the theoretical_analysis of the mixed problem using an active-set strategy and for a primal ...

Inboard and outboard radial electric field wells in the H- and I-mode pedestal of Alcator C-Mod and poloidal variations of impurity temperature

Christian Gabriel Theiler

We present inboard (HFS) and outboard (LFS) radial electric field (Er) and impurity temperature (Tz) measurements in the I-mode and H-mode pedestal of Alcator C-Mod. These measurements reveal strong Er wells at the HFS and the LFS midplane in both regimes ...

Sliding Mode Control in Ziegler’s Pendulum With Tracking Force: Novel Modeling Considerations

Mehran Khaghani, Ehsan Sarshari

Ziegler's pendulum is an appropriate model of a nonconservative dynamic system. By considering gravity effect, new equations of motion are extracted from Newton's motion laws. The instability of equilibriums is determined by linear stability analysis. Chao ...

Spatially Distributed Sequential Stimulation Reduces Fatigue in Paralyzed Triceps Surae Muscles: A Case Study

Silvestro Micera

Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is limited by the rapid onset of muscle fatigue caused by localized nerve excitation repeatedly activating only a subset of motor units. The purpose of this study was to investigate reducing fatigue by sequentially c ...

Torque anomalies at magnetization plateaux in quantum magnets with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions

Frédéric Mila, Salvatore Manmana

We investigate the effect of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interactions on torque measurements of quantum magnets with magnetization plateaux in the context of a frustrated spin-1/2 ladder. Using extensive DMRG simulations, we show that the DM contribution to ...

On the Lagrangian formulations of reactive solute transport in the hydrologic response

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Gianluca Botter

[1] We address Lagrangian dispersion of reactive solutes in the framework of the formulation of transport by travel time distributions, specifically aiming at models of basin-scale, nonpoint transport applicable to complex geomorphological settings. We rev ...
