In complex network-coupled dynamical systems, two questions of central importance are how to identify the most vulnerable components and how to devise a network making the overall system more robust to external perturbations. To address these two questions ...
The prosody of the speech signal carries both linguistic and paralinguistic information. As such, there is a necessity of its modelling for the purpose of integrating it in speech technology systems. So far, there has been a multitude of proposed models fo ...
A new hydraulic gallery was constructed to increase operational resilience and mitigate risks of Emosson hydropower scheme in the Swiss-French Alps. One of the main constraints of the operation is to avoid the overflow of the so called "Corbes" surge chimn ...
We prove that the critical Wave Maps equation with target S2 and origin R2+1 admits energy class blow up solutions of the form \[ u(t, r) = Q(\lambda(t)r) + \eps(t, r) \] where Q:R2→S2 is the ground state harmonic map and $\lambd ...
We construct a distance on the moduli space of symplectic toric manifolds of dimension four. Then we study some basic topological properties of this space, in particular, path-connectedness, compactness, and completeness. The construction of the distance i ...
We prove that the critical Wave Maps equation with target S2 and origin ℝ2+1 admits energy class blow up solutions of the form [ u(t, r) = Q(\lambda(t)r) + \epsilon(t, r) ] where Q:R2→S2 is the ground state harmonic map and $\lambda ...
Composite materials are often produced by pressure-infiltration of a liquid matrix into a preform of packed solid fibers or particles. Capillary forces that intervene in this process are quantified by measuring saturation curves, which are plots of the fra ...
A particle-based numerical manifold method (PNMM) is developed to investigate rock fracturing behavior under dynamic loading. The basic idea of PNMM is to represent the microstructure of rock with a group of particles and to simulate the macroscopic behavi ...
Four new coordination complexes with silver(I) ions and nitrogenous aromatic heterocyclic carboxylic ligands, namely [AB(4)(Pac)(Phen)(4)]center dot 8H(2)O (1), {[AB(4)(Pztc)(bPe)(3)] center dot 5H(2)O}(n) (2), [Ag-4(Hmptc)(2)(4,4'-bPY)(3)] center dot 4.5H ...
The purpose of the present study was to compare subject-specific magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations with time-resolved three-directional (3D) velocity-encoded phase-contrast MRI (4D PCMRI) measurements of ...
