Numerical methods for stochastic partial differential equations with multiple scales

A new method for solving numerically stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) with multiple scales is presented. The method combines a spectral method with the heterogeneous multiscale method (HMM) presented in [W. E, D. Liu, E. Vanden-Eijnden, An ...

RF current drive and plasma fluctuations

Stefano Coda, Joan Decker

The role played by electron density fluctuations near the plasma edge on rf current drive in tokamaks is assessed quantitatively. For this purpose, a general framework for incorporating density fluctuations in existing modelling tools has been developed. I ...

Analogy between Juggling and Hopping: Active Object Manipulation Approach

Auke Ijspeert

Dynamic manipulation of an active object is introduced as a general model of hopping and juggling tasks. In this setting, juggling and hopping are two extreme cases of this general model. Behavioral resemblance of these two tasks is afterwards extended to ...

Mixed Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanical (QM/MM) simulations of Adiabatic and Nonadiabatic Ultrafast Phenomena

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Basile Curchod, Thomas James Penfold, Pablo Campomanes Ramos, Marilisa Neri, Stefano Vanni, Andrey Laktionov

A thorough theoretical description of ultrafast phenomena that occur in complex systems constitutes a formidable challenge. It not only necessitates the use of quantum mechanical methods that can describe ground and possibly even electronically excited sta ...

A Globally Convergent Algorithm for the Run-to-Run Control of Systems with Sector Nonlinearities

Dominique Bonvin, Grégory François

Run-to-run control is a technique that exploits the repetitive nature of processes to iteratively adjust the inputs and drive the run-end outputs to their reference values. It can be used to control both static and finite-time dynamic systems. Although the ...

Stochastic integrals for spde's: A comparison

Robert Dalang

We present the Walsh theory of stochastic integrals with respect to martingale measures, and various extensions of this theory, alongside of the Da Prato and Zabczyk theory of stochastic integrals with respect to Hilbert-space-valued Wiener processes, and ...

Dynamical membrane curvature instability controlled by intermonolayer friction

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

We study a dynamical curvature instability caused by a local chemical modification of a phospholipid membrane. In our experiments, a basic solution is microinjected close to a giant unilamellar vesicle, which induces a local chemical modification of some l ...

Ultrafast X-ray Science: Structural Transients in Solution

We discuss two techniques of ultrafast X-ray science implemented at synchrotrons with application to the study of the real-time dynamics of chemical systems in solution. Time-resolved X-ray scattering and absorption offer complementary ways to study geomet ...

Optimal Start-up of Microfabricated Power Generation Processes Employing Fuel Cells

Benoît Chachuat

Microfabricated fuel cell systems have the potential to outperform batteries for man-portable power generation. Because many electronic devices operate at various loads, with frequent start-ups and shut-downs, transient aspects are highly important and mus ...

Continuum radiative heat transfer modeling in media consisting of optically distinct components in the limit of geometrical optics

Sophia Haussener

Continuum-scale equations of radiative transfer and corresponding boundary conditions are derived for a general case of a multi-component medium consisting of arbitrary-type, non-isothermal and non-uniform components in the limit of geometrical optics. The ...
