Social Opinion Formation and Decision Making Under Communication Trends

Ali H. Sayed, Virginia Bordignon, Mert Kayaalp

This work studies the learning process over social networks under partial and random information sharing. In traditional social learning models, agents exchange full belief information with each other while trying to infer the true state of nature. We stud ...

Equilibria in Network Constrained Energy Markets

Leonardo Massai

We study an energy market composed of producers who compete to supply energy to different markets and want to maximize their profits. The energy market is modeled by a graph representing a constrained power network where nodes represent the markets and lin ...

Design and experimental investigation of a herringbone grooved gas bearing supported turbocharger

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Wanhui Liu

The design of an oil free turbocharger supported on herringbone grooved gas bearing was formulated as a multi-objective problem, which was solved by coupling a reduced order parametric model for gas bearing supported rotors with an evolutionary algorithm. ...

The challenges of quasi-static and fatigue experiments of structural adhesives

Anastasios Vassilopoulos

This paper presents the results of an experimental campaign designed specifically to investigate unexpected and unwanted failures observed during the quasi-static and fatigue tensile loading of structural adhesives. Simple finite element models were also d ...

Knowledge-Aware Cross-Modal Text-Image Retrieval for Remote Sensing Images

Devis Tuia, Christel Marie Tartini-Chappuis, Li Mi, Siran Li

Image-based retrieval in large Earth observation archives is difficult, because one needs to navigate across thousands of candidate matches only with the proposition image as a guide. By using text as a query language, the retrieval system gains in usabili ...

Fundamental study on microlayer dynamics in nucleate boiling

Lubomír Bures

Dynamics of nucleate boiling are strongly affected by the formation and behaviour of the microlayer, a layer of liquid underneath growing bubbles. As a result of its minute thickness, very high heat fluxes occur within the microlayer and its evaporation co ...

Experimental validation of an integrated modelling approach to neutron emission studies at JET

Henri Weisen

An integrated modelling methodology for the calculation of realistic plasma neutron sources for the JET tokamak has been developed. The computational chain comprises TRANSP plasma transport and DRESS neutron spectrum calculations, and their coupling to the ...

Expectations with Endogenous Information Acquisition: An Experimental Investigation

Andreas Fuster

We use a survey experiment to generate direct evidence on how people acquire and process information. Participants can buy different information signals that could help them forecast future national home prices. We elicit their valuations and exogenously v ...

Electromagnetic Time Reversal: Theory, Application to Fault Location in Power Networks and Experimental Validation

Zhaoyang Wang

The time-reversal invariance is readily described and universally embodied in most laws of nature, either in a strict or in a soft sense. Based on this underlying physical principle, time-reversal theory has been theoretically and experimentally studied in ...

Experimental and Computational Study on Motor Control and Recovery After Stroke: Toward a Constructive Loop Between Experimental and Virtual Embodied Neuroscience

Auke Ijspeert, Silvestro Micera, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig, Emanuele Formento, Shravan Tata Ramalingasetty

Being able to replicate real experiments with computational simulations is a unique opportunity to refine and validate models with experimental data and redesign the experiments based on simulations. However, since it is technically demanding to model all ...

On the inefficiency of ride-sourcing services towards urban congestion

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Caio Vitor Beojone

The advent of shared-economy and smartphones made on-demand transportation services possible, which created additional opportunities, but also more complexity to urban mobility. Companies that offer these services are called Transportation Network Companie ...

Edge states control droplet breakup in subcritical extensional flows

François Gallaire, Tobias Schneider, Giacomo Gallino

A fluid droplet suspended in an extensional flow of moderate intensity may break into pieces, depending on the amplitude of the initial droplet deformation. In subcritical uniaxial extensional flow the nonbreaking base state is linearly stable, implying th ...
