Branched Alkanes Have Contrasting Stabilities

Matthew Wodrich, Jérôme Florian Gonthier

Bond separation reactions of highly branched alkanes are used to assess (de)stabilizing interactions associated with various 1,3-nonbonded substituent patterns. While n- and singly methylated alkanes show positive bond separation energies (BSEs), which inc ...

Alpine Motel

Dieter Dietz

Pamphlet Vol. 06 is based on the Spring 2009 semester-course held by the studio ALICE at EPFL and contains a series of projects developed by the ALICE students for alpine motels along 8 mountain passes in the Valais. ...

A Local Nonlinear Model for the Approximation and Identification of a Class of Systems

Based on Volterra series the work presents a novel local nonlinear model of a certain class of linear-analytic systems. The special form of the expressions for the Laplace-domain Volterra kernels of such systems is exploited to obtain an approximation stru ...

Aplicaciones de los campos de esfuerzos cortantes en el análsis y dimensionamiento de losas de hormigón armado - Applications of shear fields for analysis and design of reinforced concrete slabs

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

This paper investigates the mechanical behaviour and the load-carrying mechanisms of reinforced concrete slabs by means of shear fields. The suitability of various shear fields obtained from different approaches (elastic and plastic theory) is investigated ...

Arterial biomechanics after destruction of cytoskeleton by Cytochalasin D

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Paolo Silacci, Tyler Nerton Thacher

Vascular smooth muscle is a major structural element of the arterial wall. We examined the effects of cytoskeleton destruction, after administration of Cytochalasin D, on the biomechanical properties of porcine common carotids. Compared to untreated, maxim ...

Synthesis, structures and characterisations of truly homoleptic acetonitrile Ln3+ complexes in solid state and in solution

Rosario Scopelliti, Lothar Helm, Ines Raabe, Gabriella Eva Bodizs

Total halide abstraction from LnCl3 by Ag[Al(OC(CF3)3)4]/CH3CN has been confirmed for a series of lanthanide metal ions by the structural characterization of [Ln(CH3CN)n][Al(OC(CF3)3)4]3 (n = 9, Ln3+ = Nd, Eu, Gd, Dy; n = 8, Ln3+ = Tm) complexes. Evidence ...

BECOOL: Ballooning eigensolver with COOL finite elements

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper

An incompressible variational ideal ballooning mode equation is discretized with the COOL finite element discretization scheme using basis functions composed of variable order Legendre polynomials. This reduces the second order ordinary differential equati ...

Algorithms for the Computation of Continuous Transforms of Rectilinear Polygons from IC Layouts

Robin Scheibler

In this work, we present a novel way of computing the continuous Haar, Fourier and cosine series coefficients of rectilinear polygons. We derive algorithms to compute the inner products with the continuous basis functions directly from the vertices of the ...

On the in-series and in-parallel contribution of elastin assessed by a structure-based biomechanical model of the arterial wall

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Alkiviadis Tsamis, Gilles Prod'Hom

Earlier experimental work on decellularized arteries revealed the existence of significant residual stresses within the arterial wall, which are released upon chemical removal of vascular smooth muscle in normal arteries causing substantial radial expansio ...
