Hydrodynamic synchronization and clustering in ratcheting colloidal matter

Ratchet transport systems are widespread in physics and biology; however, the effect of the dispersing medium in the collective dynamics of these out-of-equilibrium systems has been often overlooked. We show that, in a traveling wave magnetic ratchet, long ...

Robust design using multiobjective optimisation and artificial neural networks with application to a heat pump radial compressor

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Soheyl Massoudi, Cyril Picard

Although robustness is an important consideration to guarantee the performance of designs under deviation, systems are often engineered by evaluating their performance exclusively at nominal conditions. Robustness is sometimes evaluated a posteriori throug ...

CFD Simulation of Particle-Laden Flow in a 3D Differentially Heated Cavity Using Coarse Large Eddy Simulation

Konstantin Mikityuk, Abdelouahab Dehbi

Particulate flow in closed space is involved in many engineering applications. In this paper, the prediction of particle removal is investigated in a thermally driven 3D cavity at turbulent Rayleigh number Ra = 1E9 using Coarse Large Eddy Simulation (CLES) ...

A method for the reliable and reproducible precipitation of phase pure high Ca/Si ratio (>1.5) synthetic calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H)

Karen Scrivener, Paul Bowen, Maya Nicole Harris, Grace Simpson

Various methods have been developed to synthesize C-S-H; however, these methods have only allowed for the successful production of pure-phase C-S-H with Ca:Si of 1.5 or less. Attempts to form higher Ca:Si ratios by these methods gives C-S-H (Ca:Si 1.5 or l ...

Factors influencing the sulfate balance in pure phase C3S/C(3)A systems

Karen Scrivener, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva

Understanding the sulfate balance mechanism of cement is needed for an effective use of sustainable blended cements. Pure phase systems allow to study the interaction between sulfate and each of the phases involved in early age hydration separately. This p ...

Control Theory Concepts for Modeling Uncertainty in Enzyme Kinetics of Biochemical Networks

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Georgios Savoglidis, Milenko Tokic

Analysis of the dynamic and steady-state properties of biochemical networks hinges on information about the parameters of enzyme kinetics. The lack of experimental data characterizing enzyme activities and kinetics along with the associated uncertainties i ...

Micropollutant Oxidation Studied by Quantum Chemical Computations: Methodology and Applications to Thermodynamics, Kinetics, and Reaction Mechanisms

Urs von Gunten, Minju Lee, Peter Rudolf Tentscher

The abatement of organic micropollutants during oxidation processes has become an emerging issue for various urban water systems such as drinking water, wastewater, and water reuse. Reaction kinetics and mechanisms play an important role in terms of effici ...

Kinetic Competition between Water-Splitting and Photocorrosion Reactions in Photoelectrochemical Devices

Sophia Haussener, Fredy Intelligent Nandjou Dongmeza

Semiconductor photocorrosion is a major challenge for the stability of photoelectrochemical water-splitting devices. Usually, photocorrosion is studied on the basis of thermodynamic aspects, by comparing the redox potentials of water to the self-decomposit ...

Optimal design of biomass supply chains with integrated process design

François Maréchal, Theodoros Damartzis

The current work focuses on the optimal design of biomass supply chains, addressing the conversion of raw materials into useful services. The latter include not only heat and power but also synthetic bio-based fuels (e.g. bio-SNG). Optimally pre-designed p ...

New approaches for track reconstruction in LHCb's Vertex Locator

Victor Coco, Sébastien Ponce

Starting with Upgrade 1 in 2021, LHCb will move to a purely software-based trigger system. Therefore, the new trigger strategy is to process events at the full rate of 30MHz. Given that the increase of CPU performance has slowed down in recent years, the p ...
