Via Diala

Via Diala is a proposal to rehabilitate and give new importance to a series of mineral springs around the town of Scuol in the Engadin. The different interventions are conceived in the continuity of the theoretical research Natural Design – cultivating an ...

Euclid preparation XXI. Intermediate-redshift contaminants in the search for z > 6 galaxies within the Euclid Deep Survey

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Gianluca Castignani, Jean-Luc Starck, Austin Chandler Peel, Maurizio Martinelli, Hakim Atek, Yi Wang, Richard Massey, Marcello Farina

Context. The Euclid mission is expected to discover thousands of z > 6 galaxies in three deep fields, which together will cover a similar to 50 deg(2) area. However, the limited number of Euclid bands (four) and the low availability of ancillary data could ...

Uncertainty Quantification by Multilevel Monte Carlo and Local Time-Stepping for Wave Propagation

Fabio Nobile

Because of their robustness, efficiency, and non intrusiveness, Monte Carlo methods are probably the most popular approach in uncertainty quantification for computing expected values of quantities of interest. Multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) methods signific ...

Perceptual grouping leads to objecthood effects in the Ebbinghaus illusion

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Einat Rashal

The Ebbinghaus illusion is argued to be a product of low-level contour interactions or a higher cognitive comparison process. We examined the effect of grouping on the illusion by manipulating objecthood, i.e., the degree to which an object is a cohesive p ...

Last Heir or First Engineer? An Intellectual Portrait of Vincenzio Viviani through his Working Papers

Simon François Dumas Primbault

Self-proclaimed Galileo’s ultimo discepolo, Vincenzio Viviani (1622-1703) strove all his life to become a renowned mathematician. Extolling the supposed purity of Euclid’s geometry, he sought to recover the lost knowledge of the Ancients, and fashioned him ...

Interactive Real-time Structural Modelling - Solids

The aim of this master project is to develop a fast computing method for the analysis of structures with non-linear geometric behavior. The Dynamic Relaxation (DR) method is employed instead of the better known Newton-Raphson iteration process based on Fin ...

Equivalent-Frame Modeling of Two Shaking Table Tests of Masonry Buildings Accounting for Their Out-Of-Plane Response

Katrin Beyer, Francesco Vanin, Andrea Penna

Equivalent frame models are an effective tool for the seismic assessment of existing masonry structures. Due to their simplicity, these models can be used to perform multiple nonlinear dynamic analyses, accounting explicitly for different sources of modeli ...

Flexure Pivot Oscillator Insensitive to Gravity

Simon Nessim Henein, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan

The mechanical oscillator according to the invention comprises an oscillating body (601), at least one rigid intermediate body (602) and a support (600). Each rigid intermediate body is connected to the support by a pair of elements (610, 611) providing ro ...

Finite Element Modeling of Tight Elastic Knots

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Tomohiko Sano, Paul Johanns, Changyeob Baek, Paul Grandgeorge

We present a methodology to simulate the mechanics of knots in elastic rods using geometrically nonlinear, full three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis. We focus on the mechanical behavior of knots in tight configurations, for which the full 3D defo ...

A simple and effective method based on strain projections to alleviate locking in isogeometric solid shells

Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Alessandro Reali

In this work, we focus on the family of shell formulations referred to as "solid shells", where the simulation of shell-type structures is performed by means of a mesh of 3D solid elements, with typically only one element through the thickness. We propose ...
