ActiveAx(ADD): Toward non-parametric and orientationally invariant axon diameter distribution mapping using PGSE

Jean-Philippe Thiran, David Paul Roger Romascano, Alessandro Daducci, Muhamed Barakovic, Tim Bjørn Dyrby

Purpose Non-invasive axon diameter distribution (ADD) mapping using diffusion MRI is an ill-posed problem. Current ADD mapping methods require knowledge of axon orientation before performing the acquisition. Instead, ActiveAx uses a 3D sampling scheme to e ...

Can we link theory to observations in natural flows?

Andrea Cimatoribus

The growth in size and quality of observations of Geophysical Flows enables more detailed comparison between theoretical predictions and the real world. In this presentation, I give two examples where a "statistical look" on a classical problem can offer n ...

Untangling the Mechanics and Topology in the Frictional Response of Long Overhand Elastic Knots

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis

We combine experiments and theory to study the mechanics of overhand knots in slender elastic rods under tension. The equilibrium shape of the knot is governed by an interplay between topology, friction, and bending. We use precision model experiments to q ...

The In-Silico Neocortical Microcircuit

Michael Reimann

The neocortex is one of the most important brain regions, occupying more than 80% of the brain volume in mammals and contributing massively to its capability of perceiving and interpreting then environment. While it has been extensively studied, it is stil ...

Investigating Reliability on Fuel Cell Model Identification. Part III: Behavior of Assessment Criteria and Limits in Identification

Daniel Favrat, Jan Van Herle, Leonidas Tsikonis

The present paper is the third and last part of an investigation on what determines reliability in fuel cell model identification. In continuation to the effect of experimental design (Part I) and a process method for stochastic calculation of a model's pa ...

Study of Topoisomerase-DNA Interaction Using Atomic Force Microscopy

Livan Bladimir Alonso Sarduy

The aim of this thesis was to explore the topoisomerase-DNA interactions using atomic force microscopy (AFM) in a liquid environment. Firstly, we present a programmable microcontroller-driven injection system for the exchange of an imaging medium while usi ...

Tightening of DNA knots by supercoiling facilitates their unknotting by type II DNA topoisomerases

Giovanni Dietler, Andrzej Stasiak, Guillaume Witz

Using numerical simulations, we compare properties of knotted DNA molecules that are either torsionally relaxed or supercoiled. We observe that DNA supercoiling tightens knotted portions of DNA molecules and accentuates the difference in curvature between ...

Transactional memory, linking theory and practice

Vincent Gramoli, Srivatsan Ravi

Transactional memory appears promising for democratizing concurrent programming. Its potential lies in producing code that is extensible as atomicity is preserved under composition of transactions. This new abstraction raises several challenges such as the ...

DNA supercoiling and its role in DNA decatenation and unknotting

Andrzej Stasiak, Guillaume Witz

Chromosomal and plasmid DNA molecules in bacterial cells are maintained under torsional tension and are therefore supercoiled. With the exception of extreme thermophiles, supercoiling has a negative sign, which means that the torsional tension diminishes t ...
