Algebraic and Boolean Optimization Methods for AQFP Superconducting Circuits

Giovanni De Micheli, Eleonora Testa, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

Adiabatic quantum-flux-parametron (AQFP) circuits are a family of superconducting electronic (SCE) circuits that have recently gained growing interest due to their low-energy consumption, and may serve as alternative technology to overcome the down-scalin ...

State of the Art on Computational Design of Assemblies with Rigid Parts

Mark Pauly, Peng Song

An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Designing assemblies is a non-trivial task as a slight local modification on a part's geometry or its joining method could have a global impact on ...

Non-intrusive double-greedy parametric model reduction by interpolation of frequency-domain rational surrogates

Fabio Nobile, Davide Pradovera

We propose a model order reduction approach for non-intrusive surrogate modeling of parametric dynamical systems. The reduced model over the whole parameter space is built by combining surrogates in frequency only, built at few selected values of the param ...

Modeling and optimization of dedicated bus lanes space allocation in large networks with dynamic congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Dimitrios Tsitsokas, Anastasios Kouvelas

Dedicated bus lanes provide a low cost and easily implementable strategy to improve transit service by minimizing congestion-related delays. Identifying the best spatial distribution of bus-only lanes in order to maximize traffic performance of an urban ne ...

Geometric optimization of dielectric elastomer electrodes for dynamic applications

Herbert Shea, Bekir Aksoy, Emil Yan Garnell

Dielectric elastomers are soft actuators, made of an elastomer membrane sandwiched by compliant electrodes. Because of their high energy density and quick response, they are well suited for dynamic applications such as loudspeakers. Thanks to progress in t ...

Facilitators First: Building a Tool With Facilitators to Foster a More Collaborative Makerspace Community Through Movement Traces

Bertrand Roland Schneider, Léonore Valentine Guillain

Research indicates that makerspaces equip students with the practical skills needed to build their own projects and thrive in the twenty-first-century workforce. While the appeal of makerspaces lies in their spirit of tinkering and community-driven ethos, ...

Which professional skills do students learn in engineering team-based projects?

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Roland John Tormey, Cécile Hardebolle, Cyril Picard

Engineering accreditation bodies express a strong consensus that in addition to technical and scientific skills, engineering education also needs to promote the development of professional skills. In general, team-based projects are considered to be valuab ...

Pareto-like sequential sampling heuristic for global optimisation

Katrin Beyer, Mahmoud S. M. Shaqfa

In this paper, we propose a simple global optimisation algorithm inspired by Pareto’s principle. This algorithm samples most of its solutions within prominent search domains and is equipped with a self-adaptive mechanism to control the dynamic tightening o ...

Toward an objective assessment of mobility in clinical and daily activity settings

Arash Atrsaei

Quantification of mobility is the key to monitor the progression of mobility disorders as well as the effect of an intervention. Inertial measurement units (IMUs) with dedicated algorithms can quantify postural transitions and gait as the two key aspects o ...
