Ultra long turbulent eddies, magnetic topology, and the triggering of internal transport barriers in tokamaks

Stephan Brunner, Justin Richard Ball, Arnas Volcokas

Local nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of tokamak plasmas demonstrate that turbulent eddies can extend along magnetic field lines for hundreds of poloidal turns when the magnetic shear is very small. By accurately modeling different field line topologies ...

Scalable Multi-agent Coordination and Resource Sharing

Panayiotis Danassis

A plethora of real world problems consist of a number of agents that interact, learn, cooperate, coordinate, and compete with others in ever more complex environments. Examples include autonomous vehicles, robotic agents, intelligent infrastructure, IoT de ...

A mechanical approach for the maximum punching resistance of shear-reinforced slab-column connections

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, João Tiago Ramos Bernardo de Santa Rita Simões, Diego Hernández Fraile

The use of punching shear reinforcement is currently considered as one of the most convenient practices to enhance the punching shear strength and deformation capacity of slab-column connections in flat slabs. Intensive research has been performed in the l ...

Turning crowds into communities: The collectives of online citizen science

Jérôme Baudry

Over the past two decades, a number of digital platforms have been developed with the aim of engaging citizens in scientific research projects. The success of these platforms depends in no small part on their ability to attract and retain participants, tur ...

Moving on: Is Existenzminimum Still Relevant?

Bruno Marchand

In the inter-war period, progressive architects confronted the building of mass housing with an analogy with rational and functional workplaces. At the 2nd CIAM (Congres Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne), held in Frankfurt in 1929, this was tested aga ...

Rationally almost periodic sequences, polynomial multiple recurrence and symbolic dynamics

Florian Karl Richter

A set

R\subset \mathbb{N}

is called rational if it is well approximable by finite unions of arithmetic progressions, meaning that for every

An Automatic, Data-Driven Definition of Atomic-Scale Structural Motifs

Piero Gasparotto

Structure-property relationships at the atomic scale are usually understood in terms of recurrent structural motifs formed by atoms and molecules, and how they transform and interact with each other. We introduce with this thesis a novel analysis approach, ...

A heterogeneous evolutionary stable population under assortative matching: Exploring the diversity of preferences

Boris Thurm, Charles Chadi Ayoubi

Recent studies have shown that a population acting not only upon self-interest but also exhibiting some morality preference has an evolutionary advantage. Specifically, in the setting of a symmetric fitness game, a resident population is evolutionary stabl ...

Implicit Consensus: Blockchain with Unbounded Throughput

Kelong Cong

Recently, the blockchain technique was put in the spotlight as it introduced a systematic approach for multiple parties to reach consensus without needing trust. However, the application of this technique in practice is severely restricted due to its limit ...

The interaction factor method for energy pile groups

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Prior to this study, no simplified yet rational methods were available for estimating the vertical displacements of energy pile groups subjected to thermal loads. Observing such a challenge, the goal of this study has been threefold: (i) to extend the inte ...
