Machine Translation (MT) has progressed tremendously in the past two decades. The rule-based and interlingua approaches have been superseded by statistical models, which learn the most likely translations from large parallel corpora. System design does not ...

We consider the Cauchy problem for an energy supercritical nonlinear wave equation that arises in -dimensional Yang-Mills theory. A certain self-similar solution of this model is conjectured to act as an attractor for generic large data evolutions. Assumin ...
Current design procedures for structural concrete elements are based on member level (or local) safety checks, in the sense that the safety condition is evaluated at each cross-section individually. In the examination of existing structures, the exploitati ...
Mit der Normenreihe SIA 269 stellt der Schweizerische Ingenieurund Architektenverein seinen Mitgliedern ein Hilfsmittel zur Verfügung, das den Umgang mit bestehenden Tragwerken wesentlich verbessern wird und dabei die Kreativität der Ingenieure herausforde ...
A compositional hierarchy is the default organization of knowledge acquired for the purpose of specifying the design requirements of a service. Existing methods for learning compositional hierarchies from natural language text, interpret composition as an ...
The article descirbes briefly the EPSF method and gives example of solutions obtained with the method as well as a solution with the RPSF method and comparison between the two methods. ...

The first cast-on site application of UHPFRC in Switzerland took place for the rehabilitation and widening of the bridge over river La Morge in 2004. Since then, over the last 10 years, this technology spread successfully in Switzerland for bridges and bui ...
The new Swiss Codes for engineering of existing structures. The Schweizerische Ingenieur- und Architektenverein (Swiss Society of Engineers and Architects) introduces the series of Codes SIA 269 as a tool that will provide guidance for their members to sig ...
In January 2011, the Swiss Society of Engineers and Architects (SIA) published a series of standards for existing structures. The standard entitled 'existing structures-bases for examination and interventions' specifies the principles, the terminology and ...
Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC)is charact erized by aunique combination of extremely low permeability, high strength and deformability. Extensive R&D works and applications over the last 10 years have demonstrated that cast on sit ...
