According to the principles of embodied cognition, intelligent behavior must arise out of the coupled dynamics of an agent's brain, body, and environment. This suggests that the morphological complexity of a robot should scale in relation to the complexity ...
The relation between the near–field and far–field properties of plasmonic nanostructures that exhibit Fano resonances is investigated in detail. We show that specific features visible in the asymmetric lineshape far–field response of such structures origin ...
The Lighthouse Project proposes a house. Named a House it had to address inhabitation: for whom was defined by each student. Additionally the Lighthouse had to include a public function. Light was considered as an attractor and conductor of flows in the ur ...
We prove a Hadwiger transversal-type result, characterizing convex position on a family of non-crossing convex bodies in the plane. This theorem suggests a definition for the order type of a family of convex bodies, generalizing the usual definition of ord ...
We investigate the dynamic behavior of concrete in relation to its composition within a computational framework (FEM). Concrete is modeled using a meso-mechanical approach in which aggregates and mortar are represented explicitly. Both continuum phases are ...
The project is developed around a central courtyard in response to the site where it is located, while taking advantage of the existing slope to resolve the position of the singular buildings in relation to the system of grouping classrooms; the direct con ...
Chapter in the exhibition catalogue outlining the instigation and concept for the creation of the exhibition at the Biennale. The text focuses on the relation of urban development in Bahrain with the traditional and cultural connection to water and the sea ...
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 ...
In multichannel sampling, several sets of sub-Nyquist sampled signal values are acquired. The offsets between the sets are unknown, and have to be resolved, just like the parameters of the signal itself. This problem is nonlinear in the offsets, but linear ...
Comparison between different formalisms and models is often by flattening structure and reducing them to behaviourally equivalent models e.g. automaton and Turing machine. This leads to a notion of expressiveness which is not adequate for component-based s ...
