Al0.49Ga0.51N/Al0.16Ga0.84N distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs), designed for the ultraviolet spectral region, are reported. The crack-free structures are grown on sapphire substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. A peak reflectivity of 91% at ...
This paper describes a model for simulating crowds of humans in real time. We deal with a hierarchy composed of virtual crowds, groups, and individuals. The groups are the most complex structure that can be controlled in different degrees of autonomy. This ...

The new focus on commercial workloads in simulation studies of server systems has caused a drastic increase in the complexity and decrease in the speed of simulation tools. The complexity of a large-scale full-system model makes development of a monolithic ...
For use in a Virtual Reality based training system for surgical micromanipulation, we have developed a fast multi- scale FEM algorithm that concentrates detail where needed while still handling global deformations. The resulting 6- to 7-fold speed up is pr ...
Granular materials are omnipresent in many fields ranging from civil engineering to food, mining and pharmaceutical industries. Often considered a fourth state of matter, they exhibit specific phenomena such as segregation, arching effects, pattern formati ...
We propose a discrete choice framework for pedestrian dynamics, modeling short term behavior of individuals as a response to the presence of other pedestrians. We use a dynamic and individual-based spatial discretization, representing the physical space. W ...

The range of chem. problems that are directly accessible to first-principles mol. dynamics simulations based on d. functional theory is extended with a novel method apt to accelerate rare reactive events. The introduction of a finite electronic temp. withi ...
A review. First-principles mol. dynamics (Car-Parrinello) simulations based on d. functional theory have emerged as a powerful tool for the study of phys., chem. and biol. systems. At present, using parallel computers, systems of a few hundreds of atoms ca ...
Our research focuses on animating autonomous virtual humans which are able to take decisions by themselves. We especially address in this paper the technical problem of integrating altogether the physical simulation of agents (represented as virtual humans ...
