The mathematical facet of modern crystallography is essentially based on analytical geometry, linear algebra as well as group theory. This study endeavours to approach the geometry and symmetry of crystals using the tools furnished by differential geometry ...
Today water bodies are suffering from numerous anthropogenic impacts. One of the key players is urban drainage. The directive STORM published by the VSA in 2007 proposes a procedure for an immission oriented strategy for remediation of urban drainage. At t ...
We present a prototype for the first tracking detector consisting of 250 mu m thin scintillating fibers and silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) arrays. The detector has a modular design, each module consists of a mechanical support structure of 10 mm Rohacell f ...
In our previous works we had developed a framework for self-reconfiguration planning based on graph signature and graph edit-distance. The graph signature is a fast isomorphism test between different configurations and the graph edit-distance is a similari ...
The GENE/GIST code package is developed for the investigation of plasma microturbulence, suitable for both stellarator and tokamak configurations. The geometry module is able to process typical equilibrium files and create the interface for the gyrokinetic ...
Motivated by financial applications, we study convex analysis for modules over the ordered ring L0 of random variables. We establish a module analogue of locally convex vector spaces, namely locally L0-convex modules. In this context, we prove hyperplane s ...
Let A be a noetherian commutative Z[1/2]-algebra of Krull dimension d and let P be a projective A-module of rank d. We use derived Grothendieck-Witt groups and Euler classes to detect some obstructions for P to split off a free factor of rank one. If d
We study the simple subfunctors of indecomposable projective Mackey functors for a p-group P. Unlike the case of group algebras, the Mackey algebra is not in general self-injective. Thus, the socle of an indecomposable projective functor is not in general ...
We present an on-board robotic module which can determine relative positions among miniature robots. The module uses high-frequency modulated infrared emissions to enable nearby robots to determine the range, bearing, and message of the sender with a rapid ...
We aim at merging technologies from information technology, roomware, and robotics in order to design adaptive and intelligent furniture. This paper presents design principles for our modular robots, called Roombots, as future building blocks for furniture ...
