Dynamics of cavitation bubbles near granular boundaries

Mohamed Farhat, Davide Bernardo Preso, Armand Baptiste Sieber

We study the dynamics of a cavitation bubble near beds of sand of different grain sizes. We use high-speed imaging to observe the motion of the bubble and the sand for different values of the stand-off parameter gamma (dimensionless bubble-boundary distanc ...

Effects of episodic rainfall on a subterranean estuary

David Andrew Barry, Clare Robinson

Numerical simulations were conducted to examine the effect of episodic rainfall on nearshore groundwater dynamics in a tidally influenced unconfined coastal aquifer, with a focus on both long- (yearly) and short-term (daily) behaviour of submarine groundwa ...

Capacity and Data Complexity in Multidimensional Linear Attack

Serge Vaudenay, Jialin Huang

Multidimensional linear attacks are one of the most powerful variants of linear cryptanalytic techniques now. However, there is no knowledge on the key-dependent capacity and data complexity so far. Their values were assumed to be close to the average valu ...

Snow particle characteristics in the saltation layer

Michael Lehning, Benjamin Andreas Walter

Shadowgraphy was employed to study snow saltation in boundary-layer wind tunnel experiments with fresh, naturally deposited snow. The shadowgraphy method allowed for a temporally and spatially high-resolution investigation of snow particle characteristics ...

A simple method to denoise ratio images in magnetic resonance imaging

Alexis Roche, Kieran O'Brien

Disclosed is a Magnetic Resonance Imaging method comprising the steps of: generating an MRI sequence designed for acquiring data from an object to be imaged, wherein the MRI sequence is configured for generating at least two different standard images, resp ...

Memory of past random wave conditions in submarine groundwater discharge

David Andrew Barry, Clare Robinson

Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is an integral part of the hydrological cycle and represents an important aspect of land-ocean interactions. We used a numerical model to simulate flow and salt transport in a nearshore groundwater aquifer under varyin ...

Stochastic simulation of intermittent DSD fields in time

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss, Joël Jaffrain

A method for the stochastic simulation of (rain)drop size distributions (DSDs) in space and time using geostatistics is presented. At each pixel, the raindrop size distribution is described by a Gamma distribution with two or three stochastic parameters. T ...

Dynamic fragmentation of a ring: Predictable fragment mass distributions

Jean-François Molinari, Anthony Christopher Davison, Sarah Levy

We employ a finite element framework, coupled to cohesive elements, to model material decohesion of a uniformly expanding ring. Our study focuses on the average fragment mass, the distribution of fragment masses, and the heaviest fragments. The computed fr ...

Geostatistical simulation of 2D fields of raindrop size distributions at the meso-gamma scale

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss

The large variability of the drop size distribution (DSD) in space and time must be taken into account to improve remote sensing of precipitation. The ability to simulate a large number of 2D fields of DSD sharing the same statistical properties provides a ...

Overview of edge electrostatic turbulence experiments on TCV

Jonathan Graves, Richard Pitts, Jan Horacek

Experiments on edge turbulence in the TCV tokamak have been performed for the first time at the beginning of 2003. This paper presents an overview of some of the results obtained, concentrating in particular on two areas: universality of density fluctuatio ...
