Shape Models of Lucy Targets (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus from Disk-integrated Photometry

We use our new light curves, along with historical data, to determine the rotation state, photometric properties, and convex shape models of the targets of the Lucy mission (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus. We determine a retrograde spin for both targets, ...

Increasing the Energy Efficiency of Gas Boosters for Hydrogen Storage and for Refueling Stations

Alfred Rufer

A new electrically driven gas booster is described as an alternative to the classical air-driven gas boosters known for their poor energetic efficiency. These boosters are used in small scale Hydrogen storage facilities and in refueling stations for Hydrog ...

Super-harmonically resonant swirling waves in longitudinally forced circular cylinders

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Alice Evelyne Julienne Marcotte

Resonant sloshing in circular cylinders was studied by Faltinsen et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 804, 2016, pp. 608-645), whose theory was used to describe steady-state resonant waves due to a time-harmonic container's elliptic orbits. In the limit of longitu ...

Rapid motion estimation and correction using self-encoded FID navigators in 3D radial MRI

Tobias Kober, Davide Piccini

Purpose: To develop a self-navigated motion compensation strategy for 3D radial MRI that can compensate for continuous head motion by measuring rigid body motion parameters with high temporal resolution from the central k-space acquisition point (self-enco ...

Controlling motion at the nanoscale with light

Mintae Chung

Optical manipulation at the micro- nano-scale is a fascinating topic due to its inherent non-invasive properties and multifaceted applications in various fields such as biology, sensing, micro-fluidics, and micro- nano-robotics. This thesis involves intens ...

Numerical and experimental investigation of spiral-grooved gas journal bearings

Elia Iseli

Small-scale turbomachinery is increasingly used in carbon-free energy conversion systems, such as commercial or domestic scale heat pumps, fuels cells for transportation and waste heat recovery. The usage of aerodynamic bearings allows the design of compac ...

The eta Aquilae System: Radial Velocities and Astrometry in Search of eta Aql B

The classical Cepheid eta Aql was not included in past Leavitt Law work because of a presumed complicating orbit due to a known B9.8V companion. To determine the orbit of eta Aql B, we analyze a significant number of radial velocity (RV) measurements from ...

Experimental and numerical investigation of the unbalance behavior of rigid rotors supported by spiral-grooved gas journal bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Elia Iseli

The forced response of rigid rotors, supported by herringbone-grooved gas journal bearings are investigated numerically and experimentally. The rotor configurations are varied by using end cylinders, attached at both sides of the shaft. Three rotors with d ...

Interpretable temporal-spatial graph attention network for multi-site PV power forecasting

Pascal Frossard, Rafael Eduardo Carrillo Rangel, Pierre-Jean Alet, Baptiste Schubnel, Jelena Simeunovic

Accurate forecasting of photovoltaic (PV) and wind production is crucial for the integration of more renewable energy sources into the power grid. To address the limited resolution and costs of methods based on numerical weather predictions (NWP), we take ...

Exploring the origin of low-metallicity stars in Milky-Way-like galaxies with the NIHAO-UHD simulations

Pascale Jablonka

The kinematics of the most metal-poor stars provide a window into the early formation and accretion history of the Milky Way (MW). Here, we use five high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations (similar to 5 x 10(6) star particles) of MW-like galaxies ...
