Impact of the turbulence wavenumber spectrum and probing beam geometry on Doppler reflectometry perpendicular velocity measurements

The perpendicular propagation velocity of turbulent density fluctuations is an important parameter in fusion plasmas, since sheared plasma flows are crucial for reducing turbulence, and thus an essential input parameter for turbulent transport simulations. ...

Space-time wave packets with reduced divergence and tunable group velocity generated in free space after multi-mode fiber propagation

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov

Previously, space-time wave packets (STWPs) have been gen-erated in free space with reduced diffraction and a tunable group velocity by combining multiple frequency comb lines each carrying a single Bessel mode with a unique wave num-ber. It might be poten ...

An elastic rod in frictional contact with a rigid cylinder

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Tomohiko Sano, Paul Grandgeorge

We investigate the load transmission along an elastic rod of finite cross-section in contact with a rigid cylinder, as system often referred to as the generalized capstan problem. In the presence of friction, the idealized classic capstan equation predicts ...

Attenuation of Lamb Modes and SH Waves near cut-off Frequencies

Soumya Yandrapalli

Near cut-off frequencies, the shear horizontal (SH) and Lamb modes in a platelet are created by a bulk acoustic wave bouncing up and down between the platelet sides in an almost vertical direction. The small inclination angle corresponds to slow drift of e ...

Instability of a thin viscous film flowing under an inclined substrate: steady patterns

François Gallaire, Gioele Mariano Nicolò Balestra, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Gaëtan Pierre Clément Lerisson

The flow of a thin film coating the underside of an inclined substrate is studied. We measure experimentally spatial growth rates and compare them to the linear stability analysis of a flat film modelled by the lubrication equation. When forced by a statio ...

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 ...

Force measurement of a gas-assisted atomization using an impulse probe

Farzad Vakili Farahani

The main objective of this study was to develop further insight into the mass flux characterization of an effervescent atomization. The spray is injected through an industrial effervescent nozzle, and is measured using a newly developed coupled PDPA + IS m ...

Orthogonally polarized frequency comb generation from a Kerr comb via cross-phase modulation

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts

We experimentally demonstrate that a single microresonator can emit two orthogonally polarized individually coherent combs: (i) a strong polarized soliton comb and (ii) an orthogonally polarized continuous wave seeded weaker comb, generated from the first ...

Hydraulic Reconstruction of the 1818 Gietro Glacial Lake Outburst Flood

Christophe Ancey, Eric Bardou, Tomás Alfredo Trewhela Palacios

In the spring of 1818, ice avalanches from the Gietro Glacier created an ice dam, which in turn formed a glacial lake in the Drance Valley (Canton of Valais, Switzerland). Today, its maximum volume is estimated to have been 25x10(6) m(3). Cantonal authorit ...

Flow field in a reservoir subject to pumped-storage operation - in situ measurement and numerical modeling

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Michael Müller

In pumped-storage reservoirs, turbulent kinetic energy input from plant operation can be considerably high. Flow velocities were measured by Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers near the intake/outlet structure to describe flow patterns induced by pumped-sto ...

Generalized resolution matrix for neutron spin-echo three-axis spectrometers

Thomas Keller, Felix Groitl

This article describes the energy resolution of spin-echo three-axis spectrometers (SE-TASs) by a compact matrix formalism. SE-TASs allow one to measure the line widths of elementary excitations in crystals, such as phonons and magnons, with an energy reso ...

Isogeometric approximation of cardiac electrophysiology models on surfaces: An accuracy study with application to the human left atrium

Alfio Quarteroni, Luca Dede', Toni Mikael Lassila, Alessandro Samuele Patelli, Andrea Bartezzaghi

We consider Isogeometric Analysis in the framework of the Galerkin method for the spatial approximation of cardiac electrophysiology models defined on NURBS surfaces; specifically, we perform a numerical comparison between basis functions of degree p >= 1 ...

Velocity profiles of turbidity currents flowing over a flat bed

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Sabine Chamoun

Turbidity currents are the main source of suspended sediment transport in reservoirs and thus one of the main causes of sedimentation. One of the techniques used to avoid reservoir sedimentation is through venting of turbidity currents. In the framework of ...

Enhanced discriminability for nonbiological motion violating the two-thirds power law

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Laurène Véronique Vuillaume

The two-thirds power law describes the relationship between velocity and curvature in human motor movements. Interestingly, this motor law also affects visual motion perception, in which stimuli moving according to the two-thirds power law are perceived to ...

Low density polyethylene (LDPE) passive samplers for the investigation of PCB point sources in rivers

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Julien Omlin, Nicolas Estoppey, Adrien Schopfer

This study aims to provide a passive sampling approach which can be routinely used to investigate polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) sources in rivers. The approach consists of deploying low density polyeth- ylene (LDPE) strips downstream and upstream of poten ...

Queue Profile Estimation in Congested Urban Networks with Probe Data

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mohsen Ramezani Ghalenoei

Queues at signalized intersections are the main cause of traffic delays and travel time variability in urban networks. In this article, we propose a method to estimate queue profiles that are traffic shockwave polygons in the time-space plane describing th ...

Influence of snow cover properties on avalanche dynamics

Michael Lehning, Betty Sovilla, Walter Steinkogler

The destructive power of an avalanche depends, among other things, on the overall mass and the snow conditions in the avalanche path. So far, the knowledge on the effect of snow conditions on avalanche behavior is limited and largely qualitative. We invest ...
