Recent developments in identifying Lagrangian coherent structures from finite-time velocity data have provided a theoretical basis for understanding chaotic transport in general flows with aperiodic dependence on time. As these theoretical developments are ...
Arrays of asymmetric Permalloy nanorings with a decentered inner hole are studied by broadband inductive spectroscopy in the gigahertz range. The spectra display a set of characteristic spin-wave eigenmodes. We find that these eigenmodes probe the absolute ...
The steady states of the Fenton–Karma, the Courtemanche and the Nygren cell models were studied by determining the fixed points of the dynamical system describing their cell kinetics. The linear stability of the fixed points was investigated, as well as th ...
We consider a model for interacting objects, where the evolution of each object is given by a finite state Markov chain, whose transition matrix depends on the present and the past of the distribution of states of all objects. This is a general model of wi ...
The modelling and simulation capabilities of SystemC-AMS concerning conservative continuous time systems involving the interaction of several physical domains and with digital control components are currently limited. Bond graphs unify the description of m ...
Transition to turbulence in pipe flow has puzzled scientists since the studies of Hagen, Poiseuille and, most prominently, Osborne Reynolds in the nineteenth century. Much of the difficulty in understanding the transition is connected with the linear stabi ...
The eigenmode spectrum is a fundamental starting point for the analysis of plasma stability and the onset of turbulence, but the characterization of the spectrum even for the simplest plasma model, ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), is not fully understood. ...
Using advanced hydrogeological and geomechanical finite element modelling, it has been possible to model the mechanical behaviour of a large slope movement, the Triesenberg landslide. This slope is located along the Rhine valley in the Principality of Liec ...
Background The ambition of most molecular biologists is the understanding of the intricate network of molecular interactions that control biological systems. As scientists uncover the components and the connectivity of these networks, it becomes possible t ...
This article presents a control architecture for controlling the locomotion of an amphibious snake/lamprey robot capable of swimming and serpentine locomotion. The control architecture is based on a central pattern generator (CPG) model inspired from the n ...
