Advancing high-throughput combinatorial aging studies of hybrid perovskite thin films via precise automated characterization methods and machine learning assisted analysis

Christian Michael Wolff, Austin George Kuba

To optimize material stability, automated high-throughput workflows are of increasing interest. However, many of those workflows either employ synthesis techniques not suitable for large-area depositions or are carried out in ambient conditions, which limi ...

Social Workers and Irregular Migrants in the Assistance Circuit: Making Sense of Paradoxical Inclusion

Maxime Carl Felder, Joan Stavo-Debauge

Despite restrictive policy frameworks, cities sometimes provide support to irregular migrants. Scholars have analysed these forms of inclusion, focusing on policies and tensions between inclusionary approaches by local or urban actors and exclusionary appr ...

A weakly nonlinear amplitude equation approach to the bypass transition in the two-dimensional Lamb–Oseen vortex

François Gallaire, Yves-Marie François Ducimetière

We analytically derive an amplitude equation for the weakly nonlinear evolution of the linearly most amplified response of a non-normal dynamical system. The development generalizes the method proposed in Ducimetière et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 947, 2022, ...

Circularity by stock in Sri Lanka: Economic necessity meets urban fabric renovation

Paolo Tombesi, Milinda Pathiraja

Persistent fiscal and political mismanagement, together with the financial pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic, have driven Sri Lanka into a social and economic crisis triggering a decrease in national foreign exchange reserves, an inability to purchase vit ...

Failure mechanism of fine-grained soil-structure interface for energy piles

Lyesse Laloui, Elena Ravera

The response of the soil-structure interface can significantly affect the performance of any geotechnical structure. Thermal cycles are a new factor that influence the response to all structures that have an energy function in addition to the structural on ...

Statistical potentials from the Gaussian scaling behaviour of chain fragments buried within protein globules

Stefano Zamuner

Knowledge-based approaches use the statistics collected from protein data-bank structures to estimate effective interaction potentials between amino acid pairs. Empirical relations are typically employed that are based on the crucial choice of a reference ...

A geometrically exact model for thin magneto-elastic shells

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Matteo Pezzulla, Dong Yan

We develop a reduced model for hard-magnetic, thin, linear-elastic shells that can be actuated through an external magnetic field, with geometrically exact strain measures. Assuming a reduced kinematics based on the Kirchhoff-Love assumption, we derive a r ...

A semi-automated workflow paradigm for the distributed creation and curation of expert annotations

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Markus Franz Josef Neuwirth, Fabian Claude Moss, Johannes Hentschel

The creation and curation of labeled datasets can be an arduous, expensive, and time-consuming task. We introduce a workflow paradigm for remote consensus-building between expert annotators, while considerably reducing the associated administrative overhea ...

On the Complete Radiation Pattern of a Vertical Hertzian Dipole Above a Low-Loss Ground

Juan Ramon Mosig, Krzysztof Michalski

The complete radiation field pattern of a vertical Hertzian dipole antenna on or above a lossless or low-loss dielectric half-space is studied using a rigorous Sommerfeld formalism. The reflected fields in the air above the interface and the subsurface fie ...

Multi-scale modeling of aggregate interlock phenomena in concrete

Mohit Pundir

In concrete structures, opened cracks contribute significantly to the transfer of shear and normal stresses through the contact forces occurring between fractured surfaces. Such contact forces are due to protruding asperities, engaged by interlocking and f ...

Development of free-boundary equilibrium and transport solvers for simulation and real-time interpretation of tokamak experiments

Francesco Carpanese

To exploit fusion as a source of energy, a hot and dense confined plasma is needed. This is achieved in tokamaks by actively controlling the plasma state meaning shape, position and internal kinetic profiles. This thesis addresses two topics: the developme ...

Properties of convex optimal power flow model based on power loss relaxation

Mario Paolone, Zhao Yuan

We derive the branch ampacity constraint associated to power losses for the convex optimal power flow (OPF) model based on the branch flow formulation. The branch ampacity constraint derivation is motivated by the physical interpretation of the transmissio ...

Entropy production in systems with unidirectional transitions

Amos Maritan, Daniel Maria Busiello

The entropy production is one of the most essential features for systems operating out of equilibrium. The formulation for discrete-state systems goes back to the celebrated Schnakenberg's work and hitherto can be carried out when for each transition betwe ...

Orbital effect and weak localization in the longitudinal magnetoresistance of Weyl semimetals NbP, NbAs, TaP, and TaAs

Philip Johannes Walter Moll

Weyl semimetals such as the TaAs family (TaAs, TaP, NbAs, NbP) host quasiparticle excitations resemblingthe long-sought-after Weyl fermions at special band-crossing points in the band structure denoted as Weylnodes. They are predicted to exhibit a negative ...

Percolation and Internet Science

Emanuele Massaro

Percolation, in its most general interpretation, refers to the “flow” of something (a physical agent, data or information) in a network, possibly accompanied by some nonlinear dynamical processes on the network nodes (sometimes denoted reaction–diffusion s ...

A novel biomechanical approach for animal behaviour recognition using accelerometers

Kamiar Aminian, Pritish Chakravarty

Data from animal-borne inertial sensors are widely used to investigate several aspects of an animal's life, such as energy expenditure, daily activity patterns and behaviour. Accelerometer data used in conjunction with machine learning algorithms have b ...

Fourier could be a data scientist: From graph Fourier transform to signal processing on graphs

Pierre Vandergheynst, Benjamin Ricaud

The legacy of Joseph Fourier in science is vast, especially thanks to the essential tool that the Fourier transform is. The flexibility of this analysis, its computational efficiency and the physical interpretation it offers makes it a cornerstone in many ...

A Computer Vision System to Localize and Classify Wastes on the Streets

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Mohammad Saeed Rad, Hazim Kemal Ekenel

Littering quantification is an important step for improving cleanliness of cities. When human interpretation is too cumbersome or in some cases impossible, an objective index of cleanliness could reduce the littering by awareness actions. In this paper, we ...
