Beyond the ultradeep frontier fields and legacy observations (BUFFALO): a high-resolution strong plus weak-lensing view of Abell 370

The HST treasury programme BUFFALO provides extended wide-field imaging of the six Hubble Frontier Fields galaxy clusters. Here we present the combined strong and weak-lensing analysis of Abell 370, a massive cluster at z = 0.375. From the reconstructed to ...

Cost-effective equalization of electro-optic frequency combs in a Sagnac interferometer

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Ivan Cardea

We present a cost-effective electro-optic frequency comb generation and equalization method using a single phase modulator inserted in a Sagnac interferometer layout. The equalization relies on the interference of comb lines generated in both clockwise and ...

Fully Localised Three-Dimensional Gravity-Capillary Solitary Waves on Water of Infinite Depth

Boris Buffoni

Fully localised three-dimensional solitary waves are steady water waves which are evanescent in every horizontal direction. Existence theories for fully localised three-dimensional solitary waves on water of finite depth have recently been published, and i ...

Influence of depositional fabric on mechanical properties of naturally deposited sands

Gioacchino Viggiani

Fabric characteristics and shear deformation behaviour were analysed in four intact small-scale samples, including two disturbed and two undisturbed samples of naturally deposited sand from a shoal in the San Francisco Bay. Triaxial compression tests were ...

Short-Term Forecasting of Wake-Induced Fluctuations in Offshore Wind Farms

Arslan Salim Dar

The increasing share of offshore wind energy traded at the spot market requires short term wind direction forecasts to determine wake losses and increased power fluctuations due to multiple wakes in certain wind directions. The information on potential pow ...

Ultrabroadband 3D invisibility with fast-light cloaks

Hatice Altug, Dordaneh Etezadi, Kosmas Tsakmakidis, Ershad Mohammadi, Foziyeh Sohrabi

An invisibility cloak should completely hide an object from an observer, ideally across the visible spectrum and for all angles of incidence and polarizations of light, in three dimensions. However, until now, all such devices have been limited to either s ...

Optimal heat pump integration in industrial processes

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Maziar Kermani, Anna Sophia Wallerand

Among the options for industrial waste heat recovery and reuse which are currently discussed, heat pumping receives far less attention than other technologies (e.g. organic rankine cycles). This, in particular, can be linked to a lack of comprehensive meth ...

Geometry-aware Robot Manipulability Transfer

Sylvain Calinon, Noémie Laure Gwendoline Jaquier

Humans naturally vary their body posture in order to quickly move or apply forces along specific directions. Such posture changes are strongly linked to the specific requirements of the task at hand, and therefore play a relevant role on task performance. ...

Jump-Penalized Least Absolute Values Estimation of Scalar or Circle-Valued Signals

Michaël Unser, Martin Kurt Storath

We study jump-penalized estimators based on least absolute deviations which are often referred to as Potts estimators. They are estimators for a parsimonious piecewise constant representation of noisy data having a noise distribution which has heavier tail ...
