The Halos and Environments of Nearby Galaxies (HERON) survey IV. Complexity in the boxy galaxies NGC720 and NGC2768

Oliver Müller

The shapes of galaxies, their outer regions in particular, are important guideposts to their formation and evolution. In this work, we report on the discovery of strongly box-shaped morphologies of the otherwise well-studied elliptical and lenticular galax ...

Adversarial Parametric Pose Prior

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Victor Constantin, Sina Honari, Anastasia Remizova, Andrey Davydov

The Skinned Multi-Person Linear (SMPL) model represents human bodies by mapping pose and shape parameters to body meshes. However, not all pose and shape parameter values yield physically-plausible or even realistic body meshes. In other words, SMPL is und ...

Differentiable Signed Distance Function Rendering

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Delio Aleardo Vicini, Sébastien Nicolas Speierer

Physically-based differentiable rendering has recently emerged as an attractive new technique for solving inverse problems that recover complete 3D scene representations from images. The inversion of shape parameters is of particular interest but also pose ...

Practical issues with modeling extreme Brazilian rainfall

Anthony Christopher Davison

Accurately quantifying extreme rainfall is important for the design of hydraulic structures, for flood mapping and zoning and for disaster management. In order to produce maps of estimates of 25-year rainfall return levels in Brazil, we selected 893 shorte ...

Adaptive Approximation of Shapes

Annalisa Buffa

We consider scalar-valued shape functionals on sets of shapes which are small perturbations of a reference shape. The shapes are described by parameterizations and their closeness is induced by a Hilbert space structure on the parameter domain. We justify ...

Does jackknife scale really matter for accurate large-scale structure covariances?

Ginevra Favole

The jackknife method gives an internal covariance estimate for large-scale structure surveys and allows model-independent errors on cosmological parameters. Using the SDSS-III BOSS CMASS sample, we study how the jackknife size and number of resamplings imp ...

A non-intrusive multifidelity method for the reduced order modeling of nonlinear problems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Mengwu Guo, Mariella Kast

We propose a non-intrusive reduced basis (RB) method for parametrized nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) that leverages models of different accuracy. From a collection of low-fidelity (LF) snapshots, parameter locations are extracted for the e ...

Improved modelling of a monomorph piezoelectric actuator for linear self-sensing applications

Yves Perriard, Louis Antoine Masson

Based on a previous approach for the modelling of piezoelectric monomorph benders, a new, more complete, analytical model is proposed. Some previously neglected features of the actuator stack, notably the thickness of the electrodes and the presence of iso ...

Contact process under renewals I

Thomas Mountford

We investigate a non-Markovian analogue of the Harris contact process in Z(d): an individual is attached to each site x is an element of Z(d), and it can be infected or healthy; the infection propagates to healthy neighbours just as in the usual contact pr ...

Data-driven reduced order modeling for time-dependent problems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Mengwu Guo

A data-driven reduced basis (RB) method for parametrized time-dependent problems is proposed. This method requires the offline preparation of a database comprising the time history of the full-order solutions at parameter locations. Based on the full-order ...

Likelihood estimators for multivariate extremes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Raphaël Huser

The main approach to inference for multivariate extremes consists in approximating the joint upper tail of the observations by a parametric family arising in the limit for extreme events. The latter may be expressed in terms of componentwise maxima, high t ...

Max-stable processes and stationary systems of Levy particles

Sebastian Engelke

We study stationary max-stable processes {n(t): t is an element of R} admitting a representation of the form n(t) = max(i is an element of N) (U-i +Y-i(t)), where Sigma(infinity)(i=1) delta U-i is a Poisson point process on R with intensity e(-u)du, and Y1 ...

Lyapunov exponents of random walks in small random potential: the upper bound

Thomas Mountford, Jean-Christophe Mourrat

We consider the simple random walk on Z(d) evolving in a random i.i.d. potential taking values in [0, +infinity). The potential is not assumed integrable, and can be rescaled by a multiplicative factor lambda > 0. Completing the work started in a companion ...

OsmoseLua – An Integrated Approach to Energy Systems Integration with LCIA and GIS

François Maréchal, Maziar Kermani, Min-Jung Yoo, Lindsay Dianne Lessard

In this paper, we present our recent work on the implementation of an Energy Systems Integration platform allowing the modeling of Energy Systems integrating LCI (Life Cycle Inventory), LCIA (Life Cycle Impact Assessment) and GIS (Geographical Information ...

Impact of the Normal Zone Propagations Velocity of High Temperature Superconducting Coated Conductors on Resistive Fault Current Limiters

Bertrand Dutoit, Bertrand Dutoit, Daniele Colangelo

The engineering critical current (Ic) of the high temperature superconducting coated conductors (HTS-CCs), today available on the market, is not a uniform parameter and varies significantly along the length of the conductors. Moreover, commercial HTS-CCs h ...

Tuning the length dispersion of multi-walled carbon nanotubes by ball milling

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Claudio Grimaldi, Richard Gaal, Marijana Mionic Ebersold, Rita Smajda, Primoz Rebernik Ribic

The statistical analysis of the length distribution of catalytic chemical vapour deposition synthesized multi-walled carbon nanotubes cut by planetary ball milling is reported. The nanotube lengths follow a log-normal distribution in a broad range of grind ...

The Stationary Behaviour of Fluid Limits of Reversible Processes is Concentrated on Stationary Points

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

Assume that a stochastic process can be approximated, when some scale parameter gets large, by a fluid limit (also called mean field limit", or hydrodynamic limit"). A common practice, often called the ``fixed point approximation" consists in approxima ...

Modélisation physique et analyse numérique de la propagation d'une masse granulaire : contribution à l'étude des avalanches rocheuses

Claire Sauthier

Rock avalanches are processes involving a huge amount of mobilised material, larger than 106 m3, and their propagation is characterised by a very high energy, such that no active mitigation measure is capable of protecting human lives and properties potent ...

Elasto-static micropolar behavior of a chiral auxetic lattice

Alessandro Spadoni

Auxetic materials expand when stretched, and shrink when compressed. This is the result of a negative Poisson's ratio ν. Isotropic configurations with ν≈−1 have been designed and are expected to provide increased shear stiffness G. This assumes that Young' ...
