Preliminary design of the cold mass supports for the EU DEMO feeders

Kamil Sedlák, Roberto Guarino

The Cold Mass Support (CMS) is a basic structural component of the feeder system of the EU DEMO tokamak. The function of this structural element is not only to provide support to the containment duct - wiring the cryogenic lines, electrical bus bars and in ...

On-line micro-vibration measurement method for Lorentz-type magnetic-bearing space actuators

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Leopoldo Rossini, Guzmán Borque Gallego

A novel, cost-effective, real-time and on-line method for measuring the generated micro-vibrations and iden- tifying the forces in a magnetic bearing space actuator is proposed. For its validation, an actively-controlled electrodynamic (Lorentz-type) magne ...

Hallmarks of Hunds coupling in the Mott insulator Ca2RuO4

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Marco Grioni, Johan Juul Chang, Simon Karl Moser, Gianmarco Gatti, Claudia Giuseppina Fatuzzo

A paradigmatic case of multi-band Mott physics including spin-orbit and Hund's coupling is realized in Ca2RuO4. Progress in understanding the nature of this Mott insulating phase has been impeded by the lack of knowledge about the low-energy electronic str ...

X-Point Effect on Plasma Blob Dynamics

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Fabio Avino

Plasma blob dynamics on the high-field side in the proximity of a magnetic field null (X point) is investigated in TORPEX. A significant acceleration of the blobs towards the X point is observed. Close to the X point the blobs break apart. The E x B drifts ...

Shape from Texture for Omnidirectional Images

Pierre Vandergheynst, Laurent Jacques, Luigi Bagnato

In this paper, we describe a method to infer 3-D scene information using a single view captured by an omnidirectional camera. The proposed technique is inscribed in the so called ``Shape from Texture'' problem : if the textures hold by 3-D surfaces respect ...

The rod and hole paradox re-examined

Harald Van Lintel, Christian Gruber

In the rod and hole paradox as described by Rindler (1961 Am. J. Phys. 29 365–6) ('length contraction paradox'), a rigid rod moves at high speed over a table towards a hole of the same size. A bystander expects the rod to fall into the hole, but a co-movin ...
