Acoustic topological insulators

The recent discovery of topological states in condensed matter physics has spawned a quest for similar effects in classical physics. Topological insulators are bulk insulators supporting bandgap crossing, chiral edge states that are immune to backscatterin ...

A numerical study of the blood flow through the aortic valve: comparison of Newtonian and non-Newtonian models

Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

Being able to accurately reproduce the physiological phenomena which take place in blood vessels requires understanding the impact physical parameters have on the fluid’s flow. Modeling blood flow implies choosing, or defining, at least one model with the ...

Threshold power for the transition into H-mode for H, D, and He plasmas in TCV

Basil Duval, Yves Martin, Benoît Labit, Laurie Porte, Alexander Karpushov, Roland Behn

The threshold power for the transition into H-mode with hydrogen (H), deuterium (D), and helium (He) as majority ion species has been evaluated from a series of dedicated experiments on the tokamak TCV. Identical plasma configurations with a single-null X- ...

An introduction to the problem of bridging quantum and classical dynamics

Sara Bonella

Simulating the exact quantum dynamics of realistic interacting systems is presently a task beyond reach but for the smallest of them, as the numerical cost for solving the time-dependent Schrodinger equation scales exponentially with the number of degrees ...

Buoyant turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) production in katabatic flow despite stable thermal stratification

Marc Parlange, Chad Higgins, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Eric Richard Pardyjak

As micrometeorological research shifts to increasingly non-idealized environments, the lens through which we view classical atmospheric boundary layer theory must also shift to accommodate unfamiliar behavior. We present observations of katabatic flow over ...

Statistics of Extremes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Raphaël Huser

Statistics of extremes concerns inference for rare events. Often the events have never yet been observed, and their probabilities must therefore be estimated by extrapolation of tail models fitted to available data. Because data concerning the event of int ...

Equality between Monge and Kantorovich multimarginal problems with Coulomb cost

Maria Colombo

A standard question arising in optimal transport theory is whether the Monge problem and the Kantorovich relaxation have the same infimum; the positive answer means that we can pass to the relaxed problem without loss of information. In the classical case ...

Modelling the Size Effects on the Mechanical Properties of Micro/Nano Structures

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Amir Musa Abazari

Experiments on micro- and nano-mechanical systems (M/NEMS) have shown that their behavior under bending loads departs in many cases from the classical predictions using Euler-Bernoulli theory and Hooke's law. This anomalous response has usually been seen a ...

Gas phase infrared spectra from quasi-classical Kubo time correlation functions

Sara Bonella

We generalise the recently developed phase integration method (PIM) to obtain a computable approximation of the Kubo expression for quantum time correlation functions. Our scheme combines exact sampling of the quantum thermal density with classical dynamic ...
