Effects of successive floods on bed load transport in a steep flume.

Christophe Ancey, Joris Heyman, Blaise Etienne Marceau Dhont, Pascal Venetz

Rivers in mountainous areas are subject to cyclic perturbations due for instance to summer storms or daily variations in snowmelt. Such phenomena cause successive floods occurring under very similar forcing conditions. However, as shown by several field st ...

Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity of the First Osmium beta-Diketiminato Complexes and Application in Catalysis

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Andrew Douglas Phillips, Dominique Schreiber

The strongly chelating anionic beta-diketiminate ligand has been employed to formulate complexes involving almost every metal of the periodic table; however, the heavier metals of the d block remain relatively unexplored. This paper describes the synthesis ...

Edge states for the turbulence transition in the asymptotic suction boundary layer

Tobias Schneider, Tobias Klaus Kreilos

We demonstrate the existence of an exact invariant solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for the asymptotic suction boundary layer. The identified periodic orbit with a very long period of several thousand advective time units is found as a local dynamic ...

Least-restrictive robust periodic model predictive control applied to room temperature regulation

Colin Neil Jones

State-feedback model predictive control (MPC) of constrained discrete-time periodic affine systems is considered. The periodic systems’ states and inputs are subject to periodically time-dependent, hard, polyhedral constraints. Disturbances are additive, b ...

A Non-interactive Range Proof with Constant Communication

Rafik Chaabouni, Helger Lipmaa

In a range proof, the prover convinces the verifier in zero-knowledge that he has encrypted or committed to a value a ∈ [0,H] where H is a public constant. Most of the previous non-interactive range proofs have been proven secure in the random oracle model ...

NMR of Insensitive Nuclei Enhanced by Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Lothar Helm, Pascal Miéville, Sami Jannin

Despite the powerful spectroscopic information it provides, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy suffers from a lack of sensitivity, especially when dealing with nuclei other than protons. Even though NMR can be applied in a straightforward manner ...

Exploring the Chemical Space of Known and Unknown Organic Small Molecules at www.gdb.unibe.ch

Jean-Louis Reymond

Organic small molecules are of particular interest for medicinal chemistry since they comprise many biologically active compounds which are potential drugs. To understand this vast chemical space, we are enumerating all possible organic molecules to create ...

System-Dependent Density Based Dispersion Correction

Density functional approximations fail to provide a consistent description of weak molecular interactions arising from small electron density overlaps. A simple remedy to correct for the missing interactions is to add a posteriori an attractive energy term ...

Ab initio converse NMR approach for pseudopotentials

Nicola Marzari

We extend the recently developed converse NMR approach [Thonhauser et al., J. Chem. Phys. 131, 101101 (2009)] such that it can be used in conjunction with norm-conserving, nonlocal pseudopotentials. This extension permits the efficient ab initio calculatio ...

Model predictive control of linear periodic systems - a unified framework including control of multirate and multiplexed systems

Colin Neil Jones

State-feedback model predictive control (MPC) of discrete-time linear periodic systems with possibly time-dependent state and control input dimension is considered. States and inputs are subject to hard, mixed, polytopic constraints. It is described how di ...
