Local excitations in amorphous solids

Wencheng Ji

Amorphous solids are structurally disordered. They are very common and include glasses, colloids, and granular materials, but are far less understood than crystalline solids. Key aspects of these materials are controlled by the presence of excitations in w ...

Poly-NL: Linear Complexity Non-local Layers With 3rd Order Polynomials

Grigorios Chrysos

Spatial self-attention layers, in the form of Non-Local blocks, introduce long-range dependencies in Convolutional Neural Networks by computing pairwise similarities among all possible positions. Such pairwise functions underpin the effectiveness of non-lo ...

Using an antenna as a tool for studying microturbulence and zonal structures in tokamaks with a global gyrokinetic GPU-enabled particle-in-cell code

Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

In order to get a better understanding of the interaction of plasma microinstabilities and associated turbulence with specific modes, an antenna is implemented in the global gyrokinetic Particle-In-Cell (PIC) code ORB5. It consists in applying an external ...

Theory for the density of interacting quasilocalized modes in amorphous solids

Matthieu Wyart, Thomas Willem Jan de Geus, Marko Popovic, Wencheng Ji

Quasilocalized modes appear in the vibrational spectrum of amorphous solids at low frequency. Though never formalized, these modes are believed to have a close relationship with other important local excitations, including shear transformations and two-lev ...

Combining finite element analyses and mechanical models for the assessment of reinforced concrete slabs

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Raffaele Cantone

The influence of the level of deformation of the flexural reinforcement on the punching strength is well-established and mechanically founded since the pioneer works of Kinnunen and Nylander in the 1960’s. In code provisions, this influence is sometimes re ...

Concept and Applications of Extents in Chemical Reaction Systems

Dominique Bonvin, Michael Amrhein, Julien Léo Billeter, Sriniketh Srinivasan, Diogo Filipe Mateus Rodrigues

Models of chemical reaction systems can be quite complex as they typically include information regarding the reactions, the various transfers of heat and mass, as well as the effects of the inlet and outlet flows. It is well known that a linear transformat ...

A posteriori error estimation for the steady Navier-Stokes equations in random domains

Fabio Nobile, Marco Picasso, Diane Sylvie Guignard

We consider finite element error approximations of the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations defined on a randomly perturbed domain, the perturbation being small. Introducing a random mapping, these equations are transformed into PDEs on a fixed re ...

Mean-Field Description of Plastic Flow in Amorphous Solids

Matthieu Wyart

Failure and flow of amorphous materials are central to various phenomena including earthquakes and landslides. There is accumulating evidence that the yielding transition between a flowing and an arrested phase is a critical phenomenon, but the associated ...

Second-order sensitivity of parallel shear flows and optimal spanwise-periodic flow modifications

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Andrea Fani

The question of optimal spanwise-periodic modification for the stabilisation of spanwise-invariant flows is addressed. A second-order sensitivity analysis is conducted for the linear temporal stability of parallel flows U-0 subject to small-amplitude spanw ...

Classification of unions of subspaces with sparse representations

Pascal Frossard, Alhussein Fawzi

We propose a preliminary investigation on the benefits and limitations of classifiers based on sparse representations. We specifically focus on the union of subspaces data model and examine binary classifiers built on a sparse non linear mapping (in a redu ...

Instability of Thin-Walled GFRP Webs in Cell-Core Sandwiches under Combined Bending and Shear Loads

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Behzad Dehghan Manshadi

An analytical investigation of the buckling/wrinkling behavior of GFRP webs in cell-core sandwiches subjected to combined in-plane shear and bending stresses is conducted. Web-core panels are modeled as long orthotropic plates stabilized by a relatively th ...

Robust semi-analytical integration of singular impedance matrix elements in surface integral equation solvers

Juan Ramon Mosig, Athanasios Polymeridis

The direct evaluation method tailored to the 4-D singular integrals arising in the second-kind Fredholm surface integral equation formulations is presented. The proposed semi-analytical integration scheme extends the existing singularity cancellation metho ...

Cells in 3D matrices under interstitial flow: Effects of extracellular matrix alignment on cell shear stress and drag forces

Melody Swartz

Interstitial flow is an important regulator of various cell behaviors both in vitro and in vivo, yet the forces that fluid flow imposes on cells embedded in a 3D extracellular matrix (ECM), and the effects of matrix architecture on those forces, are not we ...

Reversible, fast, and high-quality grid conversions

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

A new grid conversion method is proposed to resample between two 2-D periodic lattices with the same sampling density. The main feature of our approach is the symmetric reversibility, which means that when using the same algorithm for the converse operatio ...

Shear strength of reinforced concrete bridge deck slabs

Rui Vaz Rodrigues

Reinforced concrete bridge deck slabs without shear reinforcement can be subjected to concentrated or distributed loads of important magnitude. Under these loads their structural response is not always ductile. In particular under concentrated loads their ...

Experimental study of the dependence of the damping rate of n=1 TAEs on the on-axis safety factor and toroidal rotation shear

Ambrogio Fasoli, Duccio Testa

The dependence of the measured damping rate (gamma/omega) on the value of the safety factor on axis (q(0)) and of the toroidal rotation shear has been experimentally determined for n = 1 toroidal Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs) in JET limiter plasmas with a monot ...
