Leveraging the Snap Buckling of Bistable Magnetic Shells to Design a Refreshable Braille Dot

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Tian Chen, Arefeh Abbasi, Bastien Freddy Gustave Aymon

A design concept is proposed for the building block, a dot, of programmable braille readers utilizing bistable shell buckling, magnetic actuation, and pneumatic loading. The design process is guided by Finite Element simulations, which are initially valida ...

Adaptive analysis-aware defeaturing

Annalisa Buffa, Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Ondine Gabrielle Chanon

Removing geometrical details from a complex domain is a classical operation in computer aided design for simulation and manufacturing. This procedure simplifies the meshing process, and it enables faster simulations with less memory requirements. But depen ...

Reduced order modelling of nonaffine problems on parameterized NURBS multipatch geometries

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Margarita Chasapi

This contribution explores the combined capabilities of reduced basis methods and IsoGeometric Analysis (IGA) in the context of parameterized partial differential equations. The introduction of IGA enables a unified simulation framework based on a single g ...

Sphere-Meshes for Real-Time Hand Modeling and Tracking

Mark Pauly, Andrea Tagliasacchi, Anastasia Tkach

Modern systems for real-time hand tracking rely on a combination of discriminative and generative approaches to robustly recover hand poses. Generative approaches require the specification of a geometric model. In this paper, we propose a the use of sphere ...

Reciprocal diagrams: Innovative applications of past theories

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet

The geometric relationships between a structural configuration and its internal force distribution have not received much attention for nearly hundred years. Directly stemming from the most fundamental principles of statics, the underlying theories were br ...

Fast Geodesic Active Fields for Image Registration Based on Splitting and Augmented Lagrangian Approaches

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Xavier Bresson, Dominique Zosso

In this paper, we present an efficient numerical scheme for the recently introduced geodesic active fields (GAF) framework for geometric image registration. This framework considers the registration task as a weighted minimal surface problem. Hence, the da ...

Theoretical and experimental study of the bending influence on the capacitance of interdigitated micro-electrodes patterned on flexible substrates

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, Francisco Molina Lopez

Interdigitated electrodes are common structures in the fields of microelectronics and MEMS. Recent developments in flexible electronics compel an understanding of such structures under bending constraints. In this work, the behavior of interdigitated micro ...

Optical Simulation of Silicon Thin-Film Solar Cells

Corsin Battaglia

cells is achieved with randomly textured superstrates (TCO and/or glass). Due to a continuous and broad variation of occurring structure sizes in such textures, their optical simulation is challenging. In this paper we introduce an approach to establish a ...
