Influence of Microplastics on Microbial Structure, Function, and Mechanical Properties of Stream Periphyton

Kristin Schirmer

Periphyton is a freshwater biofilm composed of prokaryotic and eukaryotic communities that occupy rocks and sediments, forming the base of the food web and playing a key role in nutrient cycling. Given the large surface that periphyton comprises, it may al ...

Homogenization-based design of microstructured membranes: wake flows past permeable shells

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

A formal framework to characterize and control/optimize the flow past permeable membranes by means of a homogenization approach is proposed and applied to the wake flow past a permeable cylindrical shell. From a macroscopic viewpoint, a Navier-like effecti ...

Adaptive Gradient Descent without Descent

We present a strikingly simple proof that two rules are sufficient to automate gradient descent: 1) don’t increase the stepsize too fast and 2) don’t overstep the local curvature. No need for functional values, no line search, no information about the func ...

Very-High-Speed Miniaturized Permanent Magnet Motors: Design and Optimization

Yves Perriard, Guillaume Paul-André Burnand

This paper aims to present an optimization method for very-high-speed electrical machines based on multiphysical analytical models. Analytical models allow a fast design but have to be robust and reliable. The set of models presented is very complete and c ...

Quantitative analysis of structural changes during rapid urban growth

Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni

New quantitative measures of urban structural changes are introduced and applied to the fast-growing city of Kerman, Iran. The results of 20,802 street measurements show that the main street orientations are orthogonal, both in the old inner part and in th ...

Fast orthogonal sparse approximation algorithms over local dictionaries

Pierre Vandergheynst, Rémi Gribonval

In this work we present a new greedy algorithm for sparse approximation called LocOMP. LocOMP is meant to be run on local dictionaries made of atoms with much shorter supports than the signal length. This notably encompasses shift-invariant dictionaries an ...
