Fabrication of moire on curved surfaces

Roger Hersch, Vahid Babaei

Moire is an appealing visual effect observable when two or more repetitive patterns are superposed. Fabrication of moire effects has already proven to be useful in a range of applications, from art to engineering. Here, we introduce a method for designing ...

Electron flux and pressure dynamic in the LHC vacuum pilot sector as a function of beam parameters and beam pipe properties

Ambrogio Fasoli, Elena Buratin

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is affected by the electron cloud (EC) phenomenon that can provoke beam instabilities, detrimental heat loads and pressure increases in the vacuum system. An innovative dedicated system called vacuum pilot sector (VPS) provi ...

Macroscopic Model for Spatial Timber Plate Structures with Integral Mechanical Attachments

Yves Weinand, Aryan Rezaei Rad

The use of integral mechanical attachments (IMAs) in spatial free-form timber plate structures has been revitalized by the production of engineered boards and recent developments in digital fabrication and computer-aided design. Despite the widespread inte ...

Mechanical Characterization of Integrally-Attached Timber Plate Structures: Experimental studies and macro modeling technique

Aryan Rezaei Rad

Spurred by the recent advancements in Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Integral Mechanical Attachment (IMA) technique has been resurrected. Using IMAs, connections between timber elements are established through their form, instead of using additional connecto ...

Lens aberration compensation in interference microscopy

Yves Bellouard, Jakub Drs

Emergence of products that feature functional surfaces with complex geometries, such as freeform optics in consumer electronics and augmented reality and virtual reality, requires high-accuracy non-contact surface measurement. However, large discrepancies ...

Carbon Nanomaterials from Oligoyne Surfactants

Enzo Jean Raymond Bomal

Carbonaceous nanocoatings such as diamond-like amorphous carbon or graphene layers exhibit remarkable properties in multiple fields, ranging from corrosion protection to electronics and lubrication. However, they are typically deposited from the vapor phas ...

Isogeometric Analysis of the electrophysiology in the human heart: Numerical simulation of the bidomain equations on the atria

Alfio Quarteroni, Luca Dede', Luca Pegolotti

We consider Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) for the numerical solution of the electrophysiology of the atria, which in this work is modeled by means of the bidomain equations on thin surfaces. First, we consider the bidomain equations coupled with the Roger-Mc ...

Volumetric untrimming: Precise decomposition of trimmed trivariates into tensor products

Pablo Antolin Sanchez

3D objects, modeled using Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD) tools, are traditionally represented using a boundary representation (B-rep), and typically use spline functions to parameterize these boundary surfaces. However, recent development in physic ...
