Investigating Reliability on Fuel Cell Model Identification. Part II: An Estimation Method for Stochastic Parameters

Daniel Favrat, Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Arata Nakajo, Leonidas Tsikonis

An alternative way to process data from polarization measurements for fuel cell model validation is proposed. The method is based on re- and subsampling of IV data, with which repetitive estimations are obtained for the model parameters. This way statistic ...

Blow Up Construction and Stability of Stationary Maps

Sohrab Mirshams Shahshahani

This thesis is a study of wave maps from a curved background to the standard two dimensional sphere S2. The target is always assumed to be embedded in R3 in the standard way. The do- main manifold (the "curved background") will be diffeomorphic to S2 × R, ...

Effect of hole-shape irregularities on photonic crystal waveguides

Vincenzo Savona, Momchil Minkov

The effect of irregular hole shape on the spectrum and radiation losses of a photonic crystal waveguide is studied using Bloch-mode expansion. Deviations from a circular hole are characterized by a radius fluctuation amplitude and correlation angle. It is ...

Universal bounds on the scaling behavior of polar codes

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani, Ali Goli

We consider the problem of determining the tradeoff between the rate and the block-length of polar codes for a given block error probability when we use the successive cancellation decoder. We take the sum of the Bhattacharyya parameters as a proxy for the ...

Invariant Measures of Gaussian Type for 2D Turbulence

Gaussian measures μβ,ν are associated to some stochastic 2D models of turbulence.They are Gibbs measures constructed by means of an invariant quantity of the system depending on some parameter β (related to the 2D nature of the fluid) and the viscosity ν.W ...

Dynamic saturation curve measurement for resin flow in glass fibre reinforcement

Véronique Michaud

A methodology is presented to determine the saturation curve of a resin/glass fabric system, during infiltration in a transparent mould under constant flow rate. Video acquisitions are transformed by image analysis into saturation level versus position and ...

Link between Alginate Reaction Front Propagation and General Reaction Diffusion Theory

Jürgen Brugger, Philippe Renaud, Thomas Michael Braschler, Kristopher Pataky, Ana Valero, Ludovica Colella

We provide a common theoretical framework reuniting specific models for the Ca2+-alginate system and general reaction diffusion theory along with experimental validation on a microfluidic chip. As a starting point, we use a set of nonlinear, partial differ ...
