The effect of “objecthood” in the Ebbinghaus illusion

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Einat Rashal

In the Ebbinghaus illusion, observers overestimate the size of a target when it is surrounded by large flakers and compared with a control target surrounded by small flankers. We examined whether “objecthood” – the degree to which an object is a cohesive e ...

Discomfort glare perception in daylighting: influencing factors

Jan Wienold, Clotilde Marie A Pierson

The mechanism behind the discomfort glare phenomenon, the kind of glare provoking an irritating or distracting effect, is not well understood. Since some of the factors influencing this phenomenon are still unknown, no current indices can properly explain ...

Inter-operator Reliability of Magnetic Resonance Image-Based Computational Fluid Dynamics Prediction of Cerebrospinal Fluid Motion in the Cervical Spine

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Bryn Andrew Martin

For the first time, inter-operator dependence of MRI based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the cervical spinal subarachnoid space (SSS) is evaluated. In vivo MRI flow measurements and anatomy MRI images were obta ...

Induced Matchings In Graphs Of Degree At Most 4

Viet Hang Nguyen

For a graph G, let nu(s)(G) be the strong matching number of G. We prove the sharp bound nu(s)(G) >= n(G)/9 for every graph G of maximum degree at most 4 and without isolated vertices that does not contain a certain blown-up 5-cycle as a component. This re ...

Water retention and swelling behaviour of granular bentonites for application in Geosynthetic Clay Liner (GCL) systems

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Ali Seiphoori

Geosynthetic Clay Liner (GCL) systems are used as efficient hydraulic barriers in landfills for the disposal of hazardous municipal wastes. Along with geotextiles, bentonite materials are chosen as one of the primary components of GCLs due to their high re ...

Isogeometric mortar methods

Annalisa Buffa

The application of mortar methods in the framework of isogeometric analysis is investigated theoretically as well as numerically. For the Lagrange multiplier two choices of uniformly stable spaces are presented, both of them are spline spaces but of a diff ...

TC 238-SCM - hydration and microstructure of concrete with SCMs: State of the art on methods to determine degree of reaction of SCMs

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Ruben Anton Snellings

This paper is the work of working group 2 of the RILEM TC 238-SCM. Its purpose is to review methods to estimate the degree of reaction of supplementary cementitious materials in blended (or composite) cement pastes. We do not consider explicitly the wider ...

Tunneling conductivity in anisotropic nanofiber composites: a percolation-based model

Claudio Grimaldi

The critical path approximation ('CPA') is integrated with a lattice-based approach to percolation to provide a model for conductivity in nanofiber-based composites. Our treatment incorporates a recent estimate for the anisotropy in tunneling-based conduct ...

Finite element differential forms on curvilinear cubic meshes and their approximation properties

Francesca Bonizzoni

We study the approximation properties of a wide class of finite element differential forms on curvilinear cubic meshes in n dimensions. Specifically, we consider meshes in which each element is the image of a cubical reference element under a diffeomorphis ...

Density of rational points on del Pezzo surfaces of degree one

We state conditions under which the set S(k) of k-rational points on a del Pezzo surface S of degree 1 over an infinite field k of characteristic not equal to 2 or 3 is Zariski dense. For example, it suffices to require that the elliptic fibration S -> P-1 ...
