Model Predictive Control for Multi-Agent Systems under Limited Communication and Time-Varying Network Topology

Melanie Nicole Zeilinger, Danilo Saccani

In control system networks, reconfiguration of the controller when agents are leaving or joining the network is still an open challenge, in particular when operation constraints that depend on each agent's behavior must be met. Drawing our motivation from ...

Preheating in Palatini Higgs inflation on the lattice

Inar Timiryasov, Andrey Shkerin, Juraj Klaric, Adrien Florio

We study preheating following Higgs inflation in the Palatini formulation of gravity. We numerically evolve perturbations of the radial mode of the Higgs field and that of three scalars modeling the gauge bosons. We compare the two non-perturbative mechani ...

Comment on “Straight lightning as a signature of macroscopic dark matter”

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

In the discussed paper [N. Starkman, H. Winch, J. S. Sidhu, and G. Starkman, Straight lightning as a signature of macroscopic dark matter, Phys. Rev. D 103, 063024 (2021)], the authors have made several assumptions and statements concerning the initiation ...

Superluminal Motion-Assisted Four-Dimensional Light-in-Flight Imaging

Edoardo Charbon, Andrei Ardelean, Ming-Lo Wu, Kazuhiro Morimoto

Advances in high-speed imaging techniques have opened new possibilities for capturing ultrafast phenomena such as light propagation in air or through media. Capturing light in flight in three-dimensional xyt space has been reported based on various types o ...

Linearized supergravity with a dynamical preferred frame

Sergey Sibiryakov

We study supersymmetric extension of the Einstein-aether gravitational model where local Lorentz invariance is broken down to the subgroup of spatial rotations by a vacuum expectation value of a timelike vector field called aether. Embedding aether into a ...

Speed and Stability Limits for High-Speed Bearingless Disc Drives

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Juan Patricio Tomás Peralta Fierro

Increasing material costs and emerging applications have steered research trends towards compacter and therefore faster drives. The arising challenges of miniaturization have made contactless magnetic levitation increasingly attractive, which offer practic ...

On constraining the speed of gravitational waves following GW150914

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mikhail Ivanov

We point out that the observed time delay between the detection of the signal at the Hanford and Livingston LIGO sites from the gravitational wave event GW150914 places an upper bound on the speed of propagation of gravitational waves, c (gw) ae(2) 1.7 in ...

Thermodynamics in the hydrologic response: Travel time formulation and application to Alpine catchments

Andrea Rinaldo, Michael Lehning, Bettina Schaefli, Francesco Comola

This paper presents a spatially-explicit model for hydro-thermal response simulations of Alpine catchments, accounting for advective and non-advective energy fluxes in stream networks characterized by arbitrary degrees of geomorphological complexity. The r ...

Tracking residence times in hydrological systems: forward and backward formulations

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin

In recent years, several papers contributed to the development and clarification of key theoretical issues underlying the formulation of transport by travel time distributions in catchments. Such a formulation provides a robust description of the temporal ...

Horava gravity versus thermodynamics: The black hole case

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Under broad assumptions, breaking of Lorentz invariance in gravitational theories leads to tension with unitarity because it allows for processes that apparently violate the second law of thermodynamics. The crucial ingredient of this argument is the exist ...

Field-based Strategies for Solid-Liquid Separation : Potentials and Limitations for Mammalian Cell Retention in High-Density Perfusion Bioreactors

Thierry Chappuis

The ever increasing demand for large quantities of bio-engineered pharmaceuticals and the tendency for doses to become larger stimulate the development of more productive and reliable mammalian cell culture technologies. In this context, perfusion bioreact ...

Signatures of unstable semiclassical trajectories in tunneling

Sergey Sibiryakov

It was found recently that processes of multidimensional tunneling are generally described at high energies by unstable semiclassical trajectories. We study two observational signatures related to the instability of trajectories. First, we find an addition ...

Gravitating field-theoretical branes and their excitations

Katarzyna Zuleta Estrugo

This thesis is devoted to studying field-theoretical branes in warped geometries, with emphasis on brane excitations and properties of background solutions. Firstly, we examine the features of a model in which our universe is represented by a local string- ...

High resolution miniature rotary microactuator

Jean-Marc Breguet

For the development of high precision mobile microrobots with a size of about one cm3, capable of micromanipulation tasks, small and precise actuators have to be developed in order to provide the microrobot and its manipulation tools with the required degr ...
