Location Accuracy Evaluation of ToA-Based Lightning Location Systems Over Mountainous Terrain

Marcos Rubinstein, Wolfgang Schulz, Dongshuai Li

In this paper, we analyze the location error of time of arrival (ToA)-based lightning location systems (LLSs) caused by propagation effects over mountainous terrain around the Santis tower located in the Swiss Alps. The study is based on a full-wave three- ...

A methodology for the rigorous verification of Particle-in-Cell simulations

Paolo Ricci, Fabio Riva, Carrie Fiona Beadle

A methodology to perform a rigorous verification of Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations is presented, both for assessing the correct implementation of the model equations (code verification), and evaluating the numerical uncertainty affecting the simulation ...

Verification and validation procedures with applications to plasma-edge turbulence simulations

Fabio Riva

Understanding the plasma dynamics in tokamaks is of fundamental importance to reliably predict the performances of future fusion devices. Because of the complex phenomena at play, state-of-the-art simulation codes are needed to investigate the plasma dynam ...

Development of a methodology for extreme flood estimations in alpine catchments for the verification of dam safety

Fränz Zeimetz

In the context of dam safety, reliable safety flood estimation methods are necessary to guarantee a sufficiently designed spillway capacity. Todayâs state of the art allows to approach this topic under different angles. Statistical extrapolations are com ...

Shape constrained splines as transparent black-box models for bioprocess modeling

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Sriniketh Srinivasan

Empirical model identification for biological systems is a challenging task due to the combined effects of complex interactions, nonlinear effects, and lack of specific measurements. In this context, several researchers have provided tools for experimental ...

Development of a methodology for extreme flood estimations in alpine catchments for the verification of dam safety

Fränz Zeimetz

Dams are critical infrastructures which may be endangered by natural hazards as extreme foods. The water release structures especially the spillways must be designed in such a way that they can ensure the safe passage of extreme floods. Uncontrolled overto ...

The Gibbs free energy of homogeneous nucleation: From atomistic nuclei to the planar limit

Michele Ceriotti, Bingqing Cheng, Gareth Aneurin Tribello

In this paper we discuss how the information contained in atomistic simulations of homogeneous nucleation should be used when fitting the parameters in macroscopic nucleation models. We show how the number of solid and liquid atoms in such simulations can ...

High sensitivity field asymmetric ion mobility spectrometer

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Philippe Marmillod, Alessandro Valentino Matheoud, Mario Andres Chavarria Varon

A high sensitivity field asymmetric ion mobility spectrometer (FAIMS) was designed, fabricated, and tested. The main components of the system are a 10.6 eV UV photoionization source, an ion filter driven by a high voltage/high frequency n-MOS inverter circ ...

Retrieval of the raindrop size distribution from polarimetric radar data using double-moment normalisation

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

A new technique for estimating the raindrop size distribution (DSD) from polarimetric radar data is proposed. Two statistical moments of the DSD are estimated from polarimetric variables, and the DSD is reconstructed using a double-moment normalisation. Th ...
