Transformations silencieuses : étude sur l'architecture alpine

This thesis addresses the question of abandonment in architecture, not in its negative sense of desertion, but as a possibility offered to buildings which have lost their original purpose, which is to say those buildings from social and economic contexts w ...

Local Emergence of Peregrine Solitons: Experiments and Theory

Alexey Tikan

It has been shown analytically that Peregrine solitons emerge locally from a universal mechanism in the so-called semiclassical limit of the one-dimensional focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Experimentally, this limit corresponds to the strongly non ...

Finding Second-Order Stationary Points in Constrained Minimization: A Feasible Direction Approach

Shaul Nadav Hallak

This paper introduces a method for computing points satisfying the second-order necessary optimality conditions for nonconvex minimization problems subject to a closed and convex constraint set. The method comprises two independent steps corresponding to t ...

Jamming with Tunable Roughness

Matthieu Wyart, Carolina Brito Carvalho dos Santos

We introduce a new model to study the effect of surface roughness on the jamming transition. By performing numerical simulations, we show that for a smooth surface, the jamming transition density and the contact number at the transition point both increase ...

Multiple ergodic averages along functions from a Hardy field: convergence, recurrence and combinatorial applications

Florian Karl Richter

We obtain new results pertaining to convergence and recurrence of multiple ergodic averages along functions from a Hardy field. Among other things, we confirm some of the conjectures posed by Frantzikinakis in [Fra10; Fra16] and obtain combinatorial applic ...

The Almost-Sure Asymptotic Behavior Of The Solution To The Stochastic Heat Equation With Levy Noise

Carsten Hao Ye Chong

We examine the almost-sure asymptotics of the solution to the stochastic heat equation driven by a Levy space-time white noise. When a spatial point is fixed and time tends to infinity, we show that the solution develops unusually high peaks over short tim ...

On the Singular Local Limit for Conservation Laws with Nonlocal Fluxes

Maria Colombo

We give an answer to a question posed in Amorim et al. (ESAIM Math Model Numer Anal 49(1):19–37, 2015), which can loosely speaking, be formulated as follows: consider a family of continuity equations where the velocity depends on the solution via the convo ...

An Exact Convex Formulation of the Optimal Power Flow in Radial Distribution Networks Including Transverse Components

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Mostafa Nick

The recent literature discusses the use of the relaxed Second Order Cone Programming (SOCP) for formulating Optimal Power Flow problems (OPF) for radial power grids. However, if the shunt parameters of the lines that compose the power grid are considered, ...

Technical Brief: Knockdown Factor for the Buckling of Spherical Shells Containing Large-Amplitude Geometric Defects

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Anna Lee

We explore the effect of precisely defined geometric imperfections on the buckling load of spherical shells under external pressure loading, using finite-element analysis that was previously validated through precision experiments. Our numerical simulation ...

Increasing the stability of nanofluids with cavitating flows in micro orifices

Yusuf Leblebici, Morteza Ghorbani

One of the most critical challenges for nanofluids in practical applications is related to their stability and reusability since a gradual agglomeration of nanoparticles in nanofluids occurs with time and is accelerated by heating. In this study, we propos ...
