Variational phase field model for dynamic brittle fracture

Jean-François Molinari, Jérémy Bleyer, Clément Pierre Mathieu Roux-Langlois

Simulating crack nucleation and propagation remains a challenging problematic because of the complexity of crack patterns observed in fracture mechanics experiments. Whereas some numerical methods aim at explicitly tracking the crack front evolution, an in ...

Synthesis of Dual Mode Logic

Adam Shmuel Teman

In recent years, the major focus of VLSI design has shifted from high-speed to low-power consumption. While standard CMOS-based digital design provides substantial flexibility during pre-silicon design phases, the characteristics of the gates are set by fa ...

Kron reduction methods for plug-and-play control of AC islanded microgrids with arbitrary topology

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate

In this paper, we provide an extension of the scalable algorithm proposed in (Riverso et al., 2015) for the design of Plug-and-Play (PnP) controllers for AC Islanded microGrids (ImGs). The method in (Riverso et al., 2015) assumes DGUs are arranged in a loa ...

New Parametric 3D Snake for Medical Segmentation of Structures with Cylindrical Topology

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter

We propose a new parametric 3D snake with cylindrical topology. Its construction is based on interpolatory basis functions which facilitates user-interaction because the control points of the snake directly lie on the surface of the deformable cylinder. We ...

Iso-level tool path planning for free-form surfaces

Bailin Deng

The aim of tool path planning is to maximize the efficiency against some given precision criteria. In practice, scallop height should be kept constant to avoid unnecessary cutting, while the tool path should be smooth enough to maintain a high feed rate. H ...

Moduli spaces of toric manifolds

Tudor Ratiu

We construct a distance on the moduli space of symplectic toric manifolds of dimension four. Then we study some basic topological properties of this space, in particular, path-connectedness, compactness, and completeness. The construction of the distance i ...

Pyridomycin bridges the NADH- and substratebinding pockets of the enoyl reductase InhA

Stewart Cole, Florence Pojer, Ruben Hartkoorn, Joao Pedro De Almeida Neres

Pyridomycin, a natural product with potent antituberculosis activity, inhibits a major drug target, the InhA enoyl reductase. Here, we unveil the co-crystal structure and unique ability of pyridomycin to block both the NADH cofactor- and lipid substrate-bi ...

Computing Accurate Performance Bounds for Best Effort Networks-on-Chip

Giovanni De Micheli, Luca Benini, Srinivasan Murali, Federico Angiolini, Hamid Sarbazi-Azad, Dara Rahmati

Real-time (RT) communication support is a critical requirement for many complex embedded applications which are currently targeted to Network-on-chip (NoC) platforms. In this paper, we present novel methods to efficiently calculate worst- case bandwidth an ...

Structural connectomics in brain diseases

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann, Philipp Baumann

Imaging the connectome in vivo has become feasible through the integration of several rapidly developing fields of science and engineering, namely magnetic resonance imaging and in particular diffusion MRI on one side, image processing and network theory o ...

Haptic Tactile Interface (HTI): Design of the Power Supply Stage

Yves Perriard, Christophe Winter

The driving electronics of an haptic tactile interface (HTI) is presented. The stability of its linear power amplifier under the capacitive load of the HTI piezoelectric actuator is analysed and ensured. As the HTI actuator is a resonant one, a topology to ...
