Experimental techniques in biology such as microfluidic devices and time-lapse microscopy allow tracking of the gene expression in single cells over time. So far, few attempts have been made to fully exploit these data for modeling the dynamics of biologic ...
An N-port equivalent circuit approach is adopted to model a multipoint grounding system, N being the number of injection points. A methodology is proposed to determine the parameters of the N-port equivalent circuit from either numerical simulations or exp ...
Code design of Unreinforced Masonry (URM) buildings is based on elastic analysis, which requires as input parameter the effective stiffness of URM walls. Current approaches estimate the effective stiffness as fixed ratio of the gross sectional stiffness bu ...
This work analyzes the 20-gap crossing rule from a theoretical point of view. It has been found that, depending on some signal parameters, the 20-gap-crossing rule yields predictions laying between two limit cases: It may be either excessively conservative ...
We propose a realistic protocol for the preparation and readout of mechanical Bell states in an optomechanical system. The proposal relies on parameters characterizing a photonic crystal cavity mode, coupled to two localized flexural modes of the structure ...
We have analyzed the detectability limits of network communities in the framework of the popular Girvan and Newman benchmark. By carefully taking into account the inevitable stochastic fluctuations that affect the construction of each and every instance of ...
This paper focuses on urban environmental system identification. Wind-flow modeling is a challenging task because of simplifications of complex processes as well as geometry simplifications. Even a more detailed model may not be accurate because of uncerta ...

The aim of this paper is to determine the dielectric characteristics of tropical wood species at microwaves frequency in order to use them as planar antenna substrate. The measurements have been done on dried wood in the frequency range 8.2-12.4 GHz The su ...
An experimental study, conducted with an advanced triaxial press, evaluates the effect of different loading paths on the dynamic behavior of natural Swiss sand. Emphasis is put on comparison between the dynamic parameters evaluated in a single loading (wit ...
We address the problem of rate allocation and network/path selection for multiple users, running simultaneous applications over multiple parallel access networks. Our joint optimization problem consists of finding the appropriate application rate allocatio ...
