Effect of radial base-plate welds on ULCF capacity of unanchored tank connections

The base of large steel liquid storage tanks can uplift during severe earthquakes, causing large inelastic rotations at the connection between the tank shell and tank base. While recent experimental studies indicate significantly higher connection rotation ...

Turnover and accumulation of genetic diversity across large time-scale cycles of isolation and connection of populations

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Major climatic and geological events but also population history (secondary contacts) have generated cycles of population isolation and connection of long and short periods. Recent empirical and theoretical studies suggest that fast evolutionary processes ...

The norm of the Euler class

Nicolas Monod

We prove that the norm of the Euler class

\mathcal{E}

for flat vector bundles is

2^{-n}

(in even dimension

n

, since it vanishes in odd dimension). This shows that the Sullivan-Smillie bound considered by Gromov and Ivanov-Turaev is sharp. We construc ...

Cyclic demand at the shell-bottom connection of unanchored steel tanks

Alain Nussbaumer, Gary Scott Prinz, Gustavo Cortes

Gasoline and other oil byproducts are commonly stored in steel tanks that rest on ground without any anchorage. Under strong motion, the impulsive mass of the contained liquid generates a moment about the base of the tank capable of causing partial uplift ...

Experimental Determination of the Capacity of Wall-to-Base Connections in Storage Tanks

Alain Nussbaumer, Gustavo Cortes, Eric Lattion

Earthquakes around the world have affected many unanchored tanks used for storage of gasoline. When these unanchored tanks are subjected to strong motion, the moment generated at the base, by the mass of liquid contained in the tank, will cause partial upl ...

Seismic Behavior of Shell-Base Connections in Large Storage Tanks

Alain Nussbaumer, Gustavo Cortes

Unanchored steel tanks subjected to strong ground motion may experience rocking motion if the moment generated by the inertial mass of the content stored is greater than the resisting moment provided by the weight of the tank and its content. Rocking of th ...

Acridone-Benzimidazole Ring-Fused Ligands: A New Class of Sensitizers of Lanthanide Luminescence via Low-Energy Excitation

Frédéric Gumy

Two monotopic tridentate ligands, namely HLAB1 and HLAB2 have been synthesized which feature an acridone chromophore fused on a benzimidazolepyridine framework. They differ from each other by their connection points between a N-methylacridone and a N-methy ...

Superconducting parallel nanowire detector with photon number resolving functionality

Francesco Marsili, Alessandro Gaggero

We present a new photon number resolving detector (PNR), the Parallel Nanowire Detector (PND), which uses spatial multiplexing on a subwavelength scale to provide a single electrical output proportional to the photon number. The basic structure of the PND ...

Dry rock avalanche propagation

Irene Manzella

Rock avalanches are catastrophic phenomena which are not yet exhaustively understood. They consist of rock mass movements of more than one million cubic metres, involving a great amount of energy and travelling farther than expected with a normal sliding f ...

How much confidence do we have in a MRI tractography experiment?

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli, Patric Hagmann, Xavier Gigandet

When performing a tractography experiment it is essential to know whether a reconstructed tract results from the diffusion signal itself or from some random effect or noise. In this study, we introduce a way to associate to every connection a confidence le ...
