A Gyrokinetic Moment Model of the Plasma Boundary in Fusion Devices

Baptiste Jimmy Frei

The overall performance of fusion devices, such as tokamaks, is strongly correlated to the phenomena that occur in the boundary region, the outer plasma region that faces the wall of the device. The boundary plays a crucial role in regulating the heat and ...

Implicit Distance Functions: Learning and Applications in Robotics

Mikhail Koptev

In this thesis, we address the complex issue of collision avoidance in the joint space of robots. Avoiding collisions with both the robot's own body parts and obstacles in the environment is a critical constraint in motion planning and is crucial for ensur ...

Geometric and Learning Methods for Robots to Navigate in Human Crowds with Application to Smart Mobility Devices

David Julian Gonon

The thesis at hand is concerned with robots' navigation in human crowds. Specifically, methods are developed for planning a mobile robot's local motion between pedestrians, and they are evaluated in experiments where a robot interacts with real pedestrians ...

Near Collision Attack Against Grain V1

Subhadeep Banik, Daniel Patrick Collins

A near collision attack against the Grain v1 stream cipher was proposed by Zhang et al. in Eurocrypt 18. The attack uses the fact that two internal states of the stream cipher with very low hamming distance between them, produce similar keystream sequences ...

Are socially-aware trajectory prediction models really socially-aware?

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Seyed Mohsen Moosavi Dezfooli, Saeed Saadatnejad, Mohammadhossein Bahari

Our transportation field has recently witnessed an arms race of neural network-based trajectory predictors. While these predictors are at the core of many applications such as autonomous navigation or pedestrian flow simulations, their adversarial robustne ...

Turbulent transport regimes in the tokamak boundary and operational limits

Paolo Ricci, Maurizio Giacomin

Two-fluid, three-dimensional, flux-driven, global, electromagnetic turbulence simulations carried out by using the GBS (Global Braginskii Solver) code are used to identify the main parameters controlling turbulent transport in the tokamak boundary and to d ...

Neural Joint Space Implicit Signed Distance Functions for Reactive Robot Manipulator Control

Aude Billard, Nadia Barbara Figueroa Fernandez, Mikhail Koptev

In this paper, we present an approach for learning a neural implicit signed distance function expressed in joint space coordinates, that efficiently computes distance-to-collisions for arbitrary robotic manipulator configurations. Computing such distances ...

Reactive Navigation in Crowds for Non-holonomic Robots with Convex Bounding Shape

Aude Billard, Diego Felipe Paez Granados, David Julian Gonon

This paper describes a novel method for non-holonomic robots of convex shape to avoid imminent collisions with moving obstacles. The method's purpose is to assist navigation in crowds by correcting steering from the robot's path planner or driver. We evalu ...

Effect of collisions on non-adiabatic electron dynamics in ITG-driven microturbulence

Stephan Brunner, Justin Richard Ball

Non-adiabatic electron response leads to significant changes in ion temperature gradient (ITG) eigenmodes, leading, in particular, to fine-structures that are significantly extended along the magnetic field lines at corresponding mode rational surfaces (MR ...

Low-energy stereodynamics of ion-forming reactions

Junwen Zou

In this thesis, an experimental study of low-temperature stereodynamics in the reactive scattering of Ne(3P2) + X collisions (X = Ar, Kr, Xe, CO and N2) is presented. The steric effect of Ne(3P2) in these reactions is observed experimentally using a contro ...

Shapes of rotating normal fluid He-3 versus superfluid He-4 droplets in molecular beams

Christoph Bostedt, Andre Al Haddad

Previous single-pulse extreme ultraviolet and x-ray coherent diffraction studies revealed that superfluid He-4 droplets obtained in a free jet expansion acquire sizable angular momentum, resulting in significant centrifugal distortion. Similar experiments ...

Particle transport at arbitrary timescales with Poisson-distributed collisions

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Fabian Manke

We develop a model to investigate the time evolution of the mean location and variance of a random walker subject to Poisson-distributed collisions at constant rate. The collisions are instantaneous velocity changes where a new value of velocity is generat ...
