An accurate solution of the wave equation at a fluid-solid interface requires a correct implementation of the boundary condition. Boundary conditions at acousto-elastic interface require continuity of the normal component of particle velocity and traction, ...
Based on an ethnography of political squats in Geneva, this paper explores the spatial dimension of commonalities. It argues that in the political process of ordering a common life, space plays a central role as it constitutes the articulating element betw ...
An insulator differs from a metal because of a different organization of the electrons in their ground state. In recent years this feature has been probed by means of a geometrical property, the quantum metric tensor, which addresses the system as a whole, ...
The punching shear resistance formulation provided by Model Code 2010 is calibrated on the basis of experimental tests on isolated slabs supported on columns. According to Level of Approximation approach, several quantities are required for the design punc ...

We present asymptotically sharp inequalities for the eigenvalues mu(k) of the Laplacian on a domain with Neumann boundary conditions, using the averaged variational principle introduced in [14]. For the Riesz mean R-1(z) of the eigenvalues we improve the k ...

In this paper, we discuss our recent works on the null-controllability, the exact controllability, and the stabilization of linear hyperbolic systems in one dimensional space using boundary controls on one side for the optimal time. Under precise and gener ...
We present a numerical assessment of the thermal-hydraulic performance of the NbTi bus bars designed for the European DEMO. We consider the CS, TF and PF bus bars, as well as two alternative TF options for high-current operations. The main sources of stati ...
We propose and analyse a unified reactive transport model for leaching of cement paste in brines, with and without CO2. We investigate the impact of the boundary conditions on the rate of propagation of the reaction. In agreement with experiments, we obser ...
In this thesis, we study the stochastic heat equation (SHE) on bounded domains and on the whole Euclidean space Rd. We confirm the intuition that as the bounded domain increases to the whole space, both solutions become arbitrarily close to one another ...
We consider the nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation in a bounded interval equipped with the Dirichlet boundary condition and the Neumann boundary condition on the right. It is known that there is a set of critical lengths for which the solutions of ...
