Agent-based simulations have been widely applied in many disciplines, by scientists and engineers alike. Scientists use agent-based simulations to tackle global problems, including alleviating poverty, reducing violence, and predicting the impact of pandem ...
In light of the challenges posed by climate change and the goals of the Paris Agreement, electricity generation is shifting to a more renewable and decentralized pattern, while the operation of systems like buildings is increasingly electrified. This calls ...
Recently a joint project has been carried out between the Paul Scherrer Institut, the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne and swissnuclear, an industrial partner, in order to determine the axial void distribution in a channel installed in the reflecto ...
Scientists in many disciplines have progressively been using simulations to better understand the natural systems they study. Faster hardware, as well as
increasingly precise instruments, allow the construction and simulation of progressively advanced mod ...
Machine learning is often cited as a new paradigm in control theory, but is also often viewed as empirical and less intuitive for students than classical model-based methods. This is particularly the case for reinforcement learning, an approach that does n ...
We present a new method for implicit time integration of physical systems. Our approach builds a bridge between nodal Finite Element methods and Position Based Dynamics, leading to a simple, efficient, robust, yet accurate solver that supports many differe ...
The present paper focuses on the numerical simulation of the interaction of laser-generated bubbles with a free surface, including comparison of the results with instances from high-speed videos of the experiment. The Volume Of Fluid method was employed fo ...
We present a multimodel simulation approach, targeted at understanding the behaviour of comminution and the effect of grinding aids in industrial cement mills. On the atomistic scale, we use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with validated force field mo ...
The development of an aircraft industrial system is a complex process which faces the challenge of digital discontinuity in multidisciplinary engineering due to various interfaces between different digital tools, leading to extra development time and costs ...
The contact area of rough surfaces has a great influence on many mechanical process in tribology. In this report, we used the simulation method to study the contact area between two rough surfaces and its evolution when sliding. We generated artificial sel ...
