The competition between thermal fluctuations and potential forces governs the stability of matter in equilibrium, in particular the proliferation and annihilation of topological defects. However, driving matter out of equilibrium allows for a new class of ...

This thesis presents a combined experimental and theoretical study of the classical and quantum magnetization dynamics in single magnetic adatoms and molecules, and on the classical and quantum coherent control thereof. First, a detailed description of t ...

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic and let W be a finite-dimensional K-vector space of dimension greater than or equal to 5. In this paper, we give the structure of certain Weyl modules for in the case where , as well as the dimension ...

Mechanical oscillator (10) comprising an inertial body (101) joined to a support (100) by means of an elastic system (102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107) arranged to provide the inertial body (101) with substantially no degrees of freedom in translation and with ...

In this paper we develop, study, and test a Lie group multisymplectic integra- tor for geometrically exact beams based on the covariant Lagrangian formulation. We exploit the multisymplectic character of the integrator to analyze the energy and momentum ma ...

When perceiving properties of the world, we effortlessly combine multiple sensory cues into optimal estimates. Estimates derived from the individual cues are generally retained once the multisensory estimate is produced and discarded only if the cues stem ...

The joint angles of multi-segment foot models have been primarily described using two mathematical methods: the joint coordinate system and the attitude vector. This study aimed to determine whether the angles obtained through these two descriptors are com ...

This paper addresses the reconstruction of high resolution omnidirectional images from multiple low resolution images with inexact registration. When omnidirectional images from low resolution vision sensors can be uniquely mapped on the 2-sphere, such a r ...

A new mechanism has recently been proposed that generates a radial flux of parallel momentum in toroidal plasmas. Namely, by considering up-down asymmetric flux surfaces, the symmetry following the magnetic field can be broken and an additional contributio ...
