Surface Turbulence on Bores and Surges propagating on Smooth and Rough Beds

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Davide Wüthrich

Hydrodynamic waves are characterised by unsteady, highly turbulent and irregular behaviours. In nature, such phenomena can be observed in dam breaks, impulse waves and tsunamis. Both wet bed bores and dry bed surges were experimentally reproduced on smooth ...

Robust Adaptation in Impulsive Noise

Ali H. Sayed, Ali Zoubir

The popular least-mean-squares (LMS) algorithm for adaptive filtering is nonrobust against impulsive noise in the measurements. The presence of this type of noise degrades the transient and steady-state performance of the algorithm. Since the distribution ...

Elliptical tempered stable distribution

Hasan Fallahgoul

Elliptical distributions are useful for modelling multivariate data, multivariate normal and Student t distributions being two special classes. In this paper, we provide a definition for the elliptical tempered stable (ETS) distribution based on its charac ...

Current and future spatial distribution of ticks (Ixodes ricinus) and of hosted Chlamydia in Switzerland

Morgan Bruhin

This project aims to study the spatial distribution of tick, I. ricinus, and emergent Chlamydiales families hosted by them. We used presence data associated with environmental variables to construct habitat suitability indexes by using species distribution ...

Parallel algorithms for tensor completion in the CP format

Daniel Kressner, André Uschmajew

Low-rank tensor completion addresses the task of filling in missing entries in multidimensional data. It has proven its versatility in numerous applications, including context aware recommender systems and multivariate function learning. To handle large-sc ...

An evaluation of surface micro- and mesoplastic pollution in pelagic ecosystems of the Western Mediterranean Sea

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Florian Faure, Pascal Hagmann

This study examines the distribution, abundance and characteristics of surface micro- and mesoplastic debris in the Western Mediterranean Sea. 41 samples were collected in 2011 (summer) and 2012 (summer). Results, firstly, revealed that micro- (

Real Space Imaging of Spin Polarons in Zn-Doped SrCu2(BO3)(2)

Frédéric Mila

We report on the real space profile of spin polarons in the quasi-two-dimensional frustrated dimer spin system SrCu2(BO3)(2) doped with 0.16% of Zn. The B-11 nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum exhibits 15 additional boron sites near nonmagnetic Zn impurit ...

Marginal Stability in Structural, Spin, and Electron Glasses

Matthieu Wyart, Markus Müller

We revisit the concept of marginal stability in glasses and determine its range of applicability in the context of an avalanche-type response to slow external driving. We argue that there is an intimate connection between a pseudogap in the distribution of ...

Method, computer program and apparatus for measuring a distribution of a physical variable in a region

Martin Vetterli, Juri Ranieri, Amina Chebira

Method for measuring a distribution of a physical variable in a region, comprising the step of: measuring an average value of the physical variable along each of a plurality of lines in said region; estimating the distribution of the physical variable in s ...

On The Exponent Of Distribution Of The Ternary Divisor Function

Philippe Michel

We show that the exponent of distribution of the ternary divisor function d(3) in arithmetic progressions to prime moduli is at least 1/2 + 1/46, improving results of Friedlander-Iwaniec and Heath-Brown. Furthermore, when averaging over a fixed residue cla ...
