Material Flow Analysis (MFA)

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

Material flow analysis (MFA) is a method to describe and analyze the material and energy balance of a firm, a region, or a nation. It is based on the law of matter conservation and is defined by a geographic system boundary, a time span within which the an ...

Universal Scaling Law for Jets of Collapsing Bubbles

Mohamed Farhat, Nicolas Dorsaz, Danail Obreschkow, Philipp Kobel, Aurèle De Bosset, Marc Tinguely

Cavitation bubbles collapsing and rebounding in a pressure gradient del p form a "microjet" enveloped by a "vapor jet." This Letter presents unprecedented observations of the vapor jets formed in a uniform gravity-induced del p, modulated aboard parabolic ...

Metabolic principles of river basin organization

Andrea Rinaldo

The metabolism of a river basin is defined as the set of processes through which the basin maintains its structure and responds to its environment. Green (or biotic) metabolism is measured via transpiration and blue (or abiotic) metabolism through runoff. ...

Analysis of multi-stage creep and swelling oedometric tests on a French marl

Jian Zhao, Vincent Labiouse, Jean-François Mathier, Jean-Paul Dudt, Chafia Merah

The paper focuses on the delayed behaviour of marls induced by a change in stress state and by the effect of water. Seven experiments were conducted in oedometric cells on marl from the Arbus tunnel (France). The samples were subjected to a single loading ...

A law of the iterated logarithm for fractional Brownian motions

Thomas Mountford, Driss Baraka

We show that for a class of Gaussian processes indexed by one dimensional time, the local times obey the behavior conjectured by Xiao. ...

Optimal Capital and Risk Allocations for Law-and Cash-Invariant Convex Functions

Damir Filipovic, Gregor Svindland

In this paper we provide the complete solution to the existence and characterization problem of optimal capital and risk allocations for not necessarily monotone, law-invariant convex risk measures on the model space Lp, for any p ε [1;∞]. Our main result ...

The Intrinsic Permeability of Packed SiC Particles with Monomodal and Bimodal Size Distributions

The intrinsic permeability k of preforms of packed alpha-SiC particles having monomodal and bimodal particle size distributions has been evaluated by pressureless infiltration of a wetting organic fluid at room temperature. The study was carried out using ...

The spectrum of heavy tailed random matrices

Let X-N be an N x N random symmetric matrix with independent equidistributed entries. If the law P of the entries has a finite second moment, it was shown by Wigner [14] that the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues of X-N , once renormalized by root ...

Méthodologie de diagnostic des laves torrentielles sur un bassin versant alpin

Eric Bardou

The proposed methodology is based on the developments of five significant points. These developments were necessary in order to give a balanced diagnosis. They represent however only one stage towards a better comprehension of the arising problem. The meth ...
