An action-oriented tool-kit to assess the good practices of skilled migrants and scientific diasporas

This tool-kit offers a methodology designed to assess the good practices of scientific diasporas and it provides concrete examples of Colombian, Indian and South African scientists and skilled professionals in Switzerland. This is a useful guide for the di ...

On Decision Procedures for Ordered Collections

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Ruzica Piskac

We describe a decision procedure for a logic that supports 1) finite collections of elements (sets or multisets), 2) the cardinality operator, 3) a total order relation on elements, and 4) min and max operators on entire collections. Among the applications ...

Effective Metadata Management in Federated Sensor Networks

Karl Aberer, Michael Lehning, Sofiane Sarni, Saket Sathe, Ho Young Jeung, Ioannis Paparrizos

As the Sensor Internet starts to become reality, increasingly heterogeneous sensor networks are becoming interconnected into federated sensor networks and provide huge volumes of sensor data for a variety of applications to large user communities, such as ...

Distortion of Mappings and $L_{q,p}$-Cohomology

Marc Troyanov

We study some relation between some geometrically defined classes of diffeomorphisms between manifolds and the

L_{q,p}

-cohomology of these manifolds. Some applications to vanishing and non vanishing results in

L_{q,p}

-cohomology are given. ...

A geometry interface for gyrokinetic microturbulence investigations in toroidal configurations

Wilfred Anthony Cooper

The GENE/GIST code package is developed for the investigation of plasma microturbulence, suitable for both stellarator and tokamak configurations. The geometry module is able to process typical equilibrium files and create the interface for the gyrokinetic ...

Quantum scale invariance on the lattice

Igor Tkachev

We propose a scheme leading to a non-perturbative definition of lattice field theories which are scale-invariant on the quantum level. A key idea of the construction is the replacement of the lattice spacing by a propagating dynamical field - the dilaton. ...

Structural analysis of a composite bridge structure combining UHPFRC and prestressed concrete

Eugen Brühwiler, Hamid Sadouki, Cornelius Oesterlee

Reinforced concrete being the most applied construction material today performs very well in most applications but still lacks durability under severe environmental conditions. Especially existing structures built decades ago show degradation. Using Ultra- ...

Shear strength of members without transverse reinforcement as function of critical shear crack width

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

This paper investigates the shear strength of beams and one-way slabs without stirrups based on the opening of a critical shear crack. The shear-carrying mechanisms after the development of this crack are investigated. On this basis, a rational model is de ...

Evidence of inception horizons in karst conduit networks

Laurent Tacher, Marco Filipponi, Pierre-Yves Jeannin

This paper outlines the conclusion from an analysis of 18 large cave systems around the world, comprising more than 1500 km of conduits. The 3D geometry of complex cave systems have been analysed in relation to their geological context as well as their hyd ...

Sharing is Harder than Agreeing

Rachid Guerraoui

One of the most celebrated results of the theory of distributed computing is the impossibility, in an asynchronous system of

n

processes that communicate through shared memory registers, to solve the set agreement problem where the processes need to deci ...
