Rolling Ribbons

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, John Bush

We present the results of a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of rolling elastic ribbons. Particular attention is given to characterizing the steady shapes that arise in static and dynamic rolling configurations. In both cases, above a cr ...

Theoretical Methods for Wave Propagation across Jointed Rock Masses

Jian Zhao, Jianbo Zhu

Different methods are presently available for the analysis of wave propagation across jointed rock masses with the consideration of multiple wave reflections between joints. These methods can be divided into two categories. One is based on the displacement ...

Efficiency Considerations for the Fast Charge of Supercapacitors in the Frame of Low Voltage Applications

Alfred Rufer, Simon Delalay, Philippe Barrade

Even if supercapacitors present a reduced energy density, they allow to store a significant amount of energy which leads to a significant autonomy for applications with reduced energy needs. The main advantage of supercapacitors is to compensate a limited ...

A non standard supersymmetric spectrum

Enrico Bertuzzo, Duccio Pappadopulo, Paolo Lodone

Taking a bottom-up point of view and focussing on the lack of signals so far in the Higgs and in the flavour sectors, we argue in favour of giving consideration to supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model where the lightest Higgs boson has a mass be ...

Considerations on Swiss methodologies for rock fall hazard mapping based on trajectory modelling

Vincent Labiouse, Jacopo Maria Abbruzzese, Claire Sauthier

Rock fall hazard assessment and hazard mapping are essential for the risk management of vulnerable areas. This paper analyses some issues concerning fragmental rock fall hazard mapping methodologies. Two Swiss approaches based on rock fall trajectory simul ...

Transport of suspended sediment under the dam-break flow on an inclined plane bed of arbitrary slope

The problem of transport of suspended sediment after the break of a dam on an inclined bed is considered. To that end we use the shallow-water approximation for arbitrary, constant slopes of the bottom, taking into consideration the effect of friction. The ...

Apraxia: a review

Olaf Blanke, Aude Billard, Biljana Petreska von Ritter-Zahony

Praxic functions are frequently altered following brain lesion, giving rise to apraxia - a complex pattern of impairments that is difficult to assess or interpret. In this chapter, we review the current taxonomies of apraxia and related cognitive and neuro ...

Gestion stratégique de la maintenance et de la capacité d'un réseau ferré

Yves Putallaz

The railway reforms introduced since the nineties tend to spread responsibilities among different actors involved in the management of the railway system. On the other side, the governmental organisations are forced to boost the productivity of their railw ...

Doping quantum dimer models on the square lattice

Frédéric Mila

A family of models is proposed to describe the motion of holes in a fluctuating quantum dimer background on the square lattice. Following Castelnovo et al. [Ann. Phys. (N.Y.) 318, 316 (2005)], a generalized Rokhsar-Kivelson Hamiltonian at finite doping whi ...

Material and money flows as a means for industry analysis of recycling schemes

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

In most industrialized countries the recycling of waste materials has increased considerably over the last few decades; however, through a focus on how to increase the amount of recycled waste, the economic nature of recycling has sometimes been neglected. ...
