Test of 60 kA coated conductor cable prototypes for fusion magnets

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Davide Uglietti, Boris Stepanov, Rainer Wesche

Coated conductors could be promising materials for the fabrication of the large magnet systems of future fusion devices. Two prototype conductors (flat cables in steel conduits), each about 2 m long, were manufactured using coated conductor tapes (4 mm wid ...

A production scheduling problem with uncertain sequence-dependent set-up times and random yield

Paul Xirouchakis, Byung Jun Joo

A scheduling problem in a real production line with uncertain sequence-dependent set-up times and a random yield is considered. The production line can produce multiple product types as production lots, each of which is composed of a number of products of ...

Excess Success for Psychology Articles in the Journal Science

Gregory Francis

This article describes a systematic analysis of the relationship between empirical data and theoretical conclusions for a set of experimental psychology articles published in the journal Science between 2005-2012. When the success rate of a set of empirica ...

Inter-area frequency control reserve assessment regarding dynamics of cascading outages and blackouts

Mario Paolone, Mokhtar Bozorg, Omid Alizadeh Mousavi

The study of the dynamics taking place during power system blackouts is a subject that receives continuous attention in view of its inherent complexity and relevant consequences. Within this context, the paper aims at studying the role of the frequency con ...

Information percolation in segmented markets

Semyon Malamud, Darrell Duffie

We study equilibria of dynamic over-the-counter markets in which agents are distinguished by their preferences and information. Over time, agents are privately informed by bids and offers. Investors differ with respect to information quality, including ini ...

The Endowment Effect

Andreas Fuster

The endowment effect is among the best known findings in behavioral economics and has been used as evidence for theories of reference-dependent preferences and loss aversion. However, a recent literature has questioned the robustness of the effect in the l ...

Bilinear Generalized Approximate Message Passing—Part II: Applications

Volkan Cevher

In this paper, we extend the generalized approximate message passing (G-AMP) approach, originally proposed for high-dimensional generalized-linear regression in the context of compressive sensing, to the generalized-bilinear case. In Part I of this two-par ...

Lyapunov Exponents of Random Walks in Small Random Potential: The Lower Bound

Thomas Mountford, Jean-Christophe Mourrat

We consider the simple random walk on , d > 3, evolving in a potential of the form beta V, where are i.i.d. random variables taking values in [0, + a), and beta > 0. When the potential is integrable, the asymptotic behaviours as beta tends to 0 of the asso ...

Real-time management of berth allocation with stochastic arrival and handling times

Michel Bierlaire, Nitish Umang

In this research we study the berth allocation problem (BAP) in real time as disruptions occur. In practice, the actual arrival times and handling times of the vessels deviate from their expected or estimated values, which can disrupt the original berthing ...

Distributionally Robust Joint Chance Constraints with Second-Order Moment Information

Daniel Kuhn

We develop tractable semidefinite programming based approximations for distributionally robust individual and joint chance constraints, assuming that only the first- and second-order moments as well as the support of the uncertain parameters are given. It ...
