Vertebrates, including amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, with their ability to change the stiffness of the spine to increase load-bearing capability or flexibility, have inspired roboticists to develop artificial variable-stiffness spines. However, ...

Experimental results of gravity currents travelling over a fissured bed

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Gravity currents are geophysical flows having large impact on human life and on the environment. The need to prevent and mitigate their negative consequences justifies the multitude of studies carried out to understand their physics. However little has bee ...

Potential erosion capacity of gravity currents created by changing initial conditions

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Jessica Zordan

We investigate to what extent the initial conditions (in terms of buoyancy and geometry) of saline gravity currents flowing over a horizontal bottom influence their runout and entrainment capacity. In particular, to what extent the effect of the introducti ...

Kinetic approach to the Schwinger effect during inflation

Oleksandr Sobol

Using the kinetic approach, we study the impact of the charged particle dynamics due to the Schwinger effect on the electric field evolution during inflation. As a simple model of the electric field generation, we consider the kinetic coupling of the elect ...

Ontology-Based Resource Allocation for Internet of Things

Damiano Nunzio Arena, Zeinab Nezami

The Internet of Things has revolutionized the lifestyle in all aspects. Considering the huge number of connected objects and the plethora of real-time services, edge computing approaches have emerged. Resource allocation is one of the most important challe ...

Mass loss of density currents travelling over pourous bed

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sara Venuleo

Polluted liquids leaking from their storages over the surrounding gravel beds or oil spilling into aquifers, are examples of gravity currents moving over a porous terrain. Density-driven flows provoked by saline or temperature differences or turbidity curr ...

Studying Summarization Evaluation Metrics in the Appropriate Scoring Range

Maxime Jean Julien Peyrard

In summarization, automatic evaluation metrics are usually compared based on their ability to correlate with human judgments. Unfortunately, the few existing human judgment datasets have been created as by-products of the manual evaluations performed durin ...

Geomorphic work by gravity currents with varying initial conditions

Jessica Zordan

Gravity currents are density-driven flows that are able to transport high amounts of sediment and are responsible of great geomorphic changes. Moreover they can have severe repercussions on the environment since they are conveyors of substances, e.g. pollu ...

Extreme Values of Lightning Parameters

Marcos Rubinstein, Aleksandr Smorgonskii

In this paper we present an online database where we have collected a number of reports on extreme lightning parameters: peak current, fastest and slowest rise time, fastest and slowest time to half value, rate of change of current, flash duration, charge ...
