It is very common to reuse content in a thesis (e.g. in the case of the theses made of a compilation of published articles). It is therefore important to ensure that the use (or reuse) is possible and to ask for authorizations from the rights holders when ...
The articles in this issue are a selection of the 15 main presentations made at the EUROMECH Colloquium 523 'Ecohydraulics: linkages between hydraulics, morphodynamics and ecological processes in rivers' that was organized in Clermont-Ferrand, France, from ...
Antibiotic-resistant pathogens are a major health concern in everyday clinical practice. Because their detection by conventional microbial techniques requires minimally 24h, some of us have recently introduced a nanomechanical sensor, which can reveal moti ...
Criteria for the bifurcation of small solutions of an equation F(lambda,u) = 0 from a line {(lambda,0): lambda is an element of R} of trivial solutions are usually based on properties of the DuF(lambda,0) at the trivial solutions, where the partial derivat ...
To make successful predictions in ungauged basins (PUB) exploring how to facilitate the identification of catchment characteristics from readily available information is as important as improving the theoretical representation of different hydrological pro ...
Shear velocity u(*) is an important parameter in geophysical flows, in particular with respect to sediment transport dynamics. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of applying five standard methods [the logarithmic mean velocity profile, the Reyno ...
We discuss the problem of full counting statistics for periodic pumping. The probability generating function is usually defined on a circle of the "physical" values of the counting parameter, with its periodicity corresponding to charge quantization. The e ...
Catalogue services provide the discovery and location mechanisms that allow users and applications to locate data on Grids. Replication is a highly desirable feature in these services, since it provides the scalability and reliability required on large dat ...
