On the Validity of Consensus

Rachid Guerraoui, Jovan Komatovic, Manuel José Ribeiro Vidigueira, Pierre Philippe Civit, Seth Gilbert

The Byzantine consensus problem involves.. processes, out of which t < n could be faulty and behave arbitrarily. Three properties characterize consensus: (1) termination, requiring correct (nonfaulty) processes to eventually reach a decision, (2) agreement ...

Investigating the neuromechanical control of healthy gait modulation and pathological gaits observed in cerebral palsy using neuromuscular simulations

Andrea Di Russo

Locomotion is based on a sophisticated interaction among the environment, the musculoskeletal system, the spinal cord, and the brain locomotor areas. Quality of life is strongly related to the proper capability of this movement. However, many pathologies, ...

Comparison of questionnaire items for discomfort glare studies in daylit spaces

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

When studying discomfort glare, researchers tend to rely on a single questionnaire item to obtain user evaluations. It is unclear whether the choice of questionnaire item affects the distribution of user responses and leads to inconsistencies between studi ...

Numerical simulation of sediment dynamics with free surface flows

Arwa Mrad

We present a numerical model for the simulation of 3D mono-dispersed sediment dynamics in a Newtonian flow with free surfaces. The physical model is a macroscopic model for the transport of sediment based on a sediment concentration with a single momentum ...
