A method for aggregating external operating conditions in multi-generation system optimization models

This paper presents a novel, simple method for reducing external operating condition datasets to be used in multi-generation system optimization models. The method, called the Characteristic Operating Pattern (CHOP) method, is a visually-based aggregation ...

Essays on Capital Calculation in Insurance

Mathieu Jacques David Cambou

In order to be able to bear the risk they are taking, insurance companies have to set aside a certain amount of cushion that can guarantee the payment of liabilities, up to a dened probability, and thus to remain solvent in case of bad events. This amount ...

Simple predictive electron transport models applied to sawtoothing plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Timothy Goodman, Antoine Pierre Emmanuel Alexis Merle, Doohyun Kim

In this work, we introduce two simple transport models to evaluate the time evolution of electron temperature and density profiles during sawtooth cycles (i.e. over a sawtooth period time-scale). Since the aim of these simulations is to estimate reliable p ...

Apodization Scheme for Hardware-Efficient Beamformer

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Giovanni De Micheli, Federico Angiolini, Aya Mohamed Naguib Ahmed Ibrahim, Marcel Arditi

3D ultrasound is an emerging diagnostic technique that extends standard ultrasound imaging by capturing volumes, instead of planes. This brings completely new diagnostic opportunities, among which the possibility of disjoining image acquisition and analysi ...

Single-FPGA 3D Ultrasound Beamformer

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Giovanni De Micheli, Marcel Arditi, Federico Angiolini, Aya Mohamed Naguib Ahmed Ibrahim, Ahmet Caner Yüzügüler

In medical diagnosis, ultrasound (US) imaging is one of the most common, safe, and powerful techniques. Volumetric (3D) US imaging, an emerging technique, is even more attractive than standard 2D imaging, as it allows for imaging without the local presence ...

Dynamics of photoexcited Ba+ cations in 4He nanodroplets

Alberto Hernando de Castro, Marcel Drabbels, Xiaohang Zhang

We present a joint experimental and theoretical study on the desolvation of Ba+ cations in 4He nanodroplets excited via the 6p 6s transition. The experiments reveal an efficient desolvation process yielding mainly bare Ba+ cations and Ba+Hen exciplexes wit ...

Parabolic tailored-potential quantum-wires grown in inverted pyramids

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Justyna Szeszko, Mikhail Lazarev

Quasi-one-dimensional AlGaAs quantum wires (QWRs) with parabolic heterostructure profiles along their axis were fabricated using metallorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) On patterned (111)B GaAs substrates. Tailoring of the confined electronic states via ...

Measurement of the branching fraction of B+ -> tau(+)nu(tau) decays with the semileptonic tagging method

Mingkui Wang, Olivier Schneider, Chao Wang, Sun Hee Kim, Tara Nanut, Jun Yong Kim

We report a measurement of the branching fraction of B+ -> tau(+) nu(tau) decays using a data sample of 772 x 10(6) B (B) over bar pairs, collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider. We rec ...
