The GBS code for tokamak scrape-off layer simulations

Paolo Ricci, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Trach-Minh Tran, Sébastien Jolliet, Federico David Halpern, Fabio Riva, Annamaria Mosetto, Christoph Wersal

We describe a new version of GBS, a 3D global, flux-driven plasma turbulence code to simulate the turbulent dynamics in the tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL), superseding the code presented by Ricci et al. (2012) [14]. The present work is driven by the object ...

A single probe for imaging photons, electrons and physical forces

Yuliya Lisunova

The combination of complementary measurement techniques has become a frequent approach to improve scientific knowledge. Pairing of the high lateral resolution scanning force microscopy (SFM) with the spectroscopic information accessible through scanning tr ...

Backscatter in stratified turbulence

Sina Khani

In this paper, kinetic and potential energy transfers around a spectral test filter scale in direct numerical simulations of decaying stratified turbulence are studied in both physical and spectral domains. It is shown that while the domain-averaged effect ...

A variational approach to nucleation simulation

Pablo Miguel Piaggi, Michele Parrinello

We study by computer simulation the nucleation of a supersaturated Lennard-Jones vapor into the liquid phase. The large free energy barriers to transition make the time scale of this process impossible to study by ordinary molecular dynamics simulations. T ...

Physical Behavior in Older Persons during Daily Life: Insights from Instrumented Shoes

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Activity level and gait parameters during daily life are important indicators for clinicians because they can provide critical insights into modifications of mobility and function over time. Wearable activity monitoring has been gaining momentum in daily l ...

Design, analysis, testing and applications of two-body and three-body kinematic mounts

Johannes Richard Cornelis Geerit Kruis

Kinematic couplings are used when two rigid bodies need to be repeatedly and accurately positioned with respect to each other. They allow for sub-micron positioning repeatability by suppressing play and reducing strains in the bodies. Typical applications ...

Visual tracking of non-rigid objects with partial occlusion through elastic structure of local patches and hierarchical diffusion

Kwang Moo Yi, Seungryong Kim

In this paper, a tracking method based on sequential Bayesian inference is proposed. The proposed method focuses on solving both the problem of tracking under partial occlusions and the problem of non-rigid object tracking in real-time on a desktop persona ...

The Geometry of Eye Movement Dynamics

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi

Eye movements consist of spherical rotations, with orientation generally constrained by Listing’s law. Our main result is a complete explicit formulation of ballistic eye movement under the Listing constraint. We present a conceptual framework for eye move ...

Bucket-Server: A system for including teacher-controlled flexibility in the management of learning artifacts in across-spaces learning situations

Luis Pablo Prieto Santos

Recent technological advances in mobile devices enable the connection of classrooms with other virtual and physical spaces. Some approaches aim at helping teachers carry out learning situations across such spaces. However, these proposals tend to be isolat ...

Spatial properties of non-retinotopic reference frames in human vision

Michael Herzog

Many visual attributes of a target stimulus are computed according to dynamic, non-retinotopic reference frames. For example, the motion trajectory of a reflector on a bicycle wheel is perceived as orbital, even though it is in fact cycloidal in retinal, a ...
