Uncertainty Quantification by Multilevel Monte Carlo and Local Time-Stepping for Wave Propagation

Because of their robustness, efficiency, and non intrusiveness, Monte Carlo methods are probably the most popular approach in uncertainty quantification for computing expected values of quantities of interest. Multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) methods signific ...

Ultralow-Profile Circularly Polarized Reflectarray Antenna for CubeSat Intersatellite Links in K-B and

Anja Skrivervik, Miroslav Veljovic

An ultralow-profile circularly polarized (CP) reflectarray (RA) antenna is presented in this article, based on the variable-rotation technique for beam collimation and scanning. Starting from a conventional split-loop element, a new wideband element is des ...

A three-dimensional macroelement for modelling the in-plane and out-of-plane response of masonry walls

Katrin Beyer, Francesco Vanin, Andrea Penna

The seismic performance of unreinforced masonry buildings is commonly assessed using equivalent frame modelling. Its computational efficiency allows for a large number of analyses to be conducted, which are often required to account for epistemic and aleat ...

Local Vulnerabilities and Global Robustness of Coupled Dynamical Systems on Complex Networks

Melvyn Sandy Tyloo

Coupled dynamical systems are omnipresent in everyday life. In general, interactions between individual elements composing the system are captured by complex networks. The latter greatly impact the way coupled systems are functioning and evolving in time. ...

Hardware-in-the-Loop Characterization of Source-Affected Output Characteristics of Cascaded H-Bridge Converter

Drazen Dujic, Marko Petkovic

Recent trends in power system design such as an increasing share of renewable energy sources and integration of power electronics equipment for medium voltage applications are creating different subsystem interactions that require proper investigation, und ...

A hierarchical approach to the a posteriori error estimation of isogeometric Kirchhoff plates and Kirchhoff–Love shells

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Luca Coradello

This work focuses on the development of a posteriori error estimates for fourth-order, elliptic, partial differential equations. In particular, we propose a novel algorithm to steer an adaptive simulation in the context of Kirchhoff plates and Kirchhoff–Lo ...

Propulsion and energetics of a minimal magnetic microswimmer

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

In this manuscript we describe the realization of a minimal hybrid microswimmer, composed of a ferromagnetic nanorod and a paramagnetic microsphere. The unbounded pair is propelled in water upon application of a swinging magnetic field that induces a perio ...

Nuclear quantum effects enter the mainstream

Michele Ceriotti

Atomistic simulations of chemical, biological and materials systems have become increasingly precise and predictive owing to the development of accurate and efficient techniques that describe the quantum mechanical behaviour of electrons. Nevertheless, the ...

Tip connector for fluidic and electrical connection

Philippe Renaud, Yann Barrandon, David Vincent Bonzon, David Forchelet, Jean-Baptiste Bureau, Georges Muller, Nicolas Uffer

A connector for providing both a fluidic and electrical connection is disclosed, said connector having a proximal end, a distal end and an elongated body in between, characterized in that the elongated body has an inner cavity spanning throughout its lengt ...
