User evaluations of fabric shades with sun in the field of view: Glare model performance and implications for EN14501 Classification

Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann

Discomfort glare from daylight is common in workspaces, where daylight and luminance contrast between light source and background can be excessive. Fabric shadings can mitigate glare, but their light transmission properties remain difficult to characterize ...

Spatial Modeling for Building Design Evaluation: from Visual Landscape Quality Assessment to Devaluation Risk Estimation

Adam Robert Swietek

Zoning reform is a crucial tool for cities to adapt to contemporary challenges. However, its implementation remains challenging. Property owners, with a vested interest in the value of their neighborhoods, are sensitive to local developments and the potent ...

On the difficulty of determining Kármán "constants" from direct numerical simulations

Peter Monkewitz

The difficulty of determining the slope of the famed logarithmic law in the mean velocity profile of wall-bounded turbulent flows, the inverse of the K & aacute;rm & aacute;n "constant" kappa, from direct numerical simulations (DNS) is discussed for channe ...

Cross-layer Exploration of 2.5D Energy-Efficient Heterogeneous Chiplets Integration: From System Simulation to Open Hardware

Anna Burdina, David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, Miguel Peon Quiros, Pasquale Davide Schiavone

In the past decade, computing systems have significantly increased in complexity and power consumption. Nowadays, heterogeneous multi-processor systems-on-chip (MPSoCs) integrate many computing cores. Heterogeneous MPSoCs often comprise general-purpose pro ...

Interactive Design of C-shells Using Reduced Parametric Families

Mark Pauly, Quentin Christian Becker, Seiichi Eduardo Suzuki Erazo

Elastic gridshells are a class of planar-to-3D linkages typically composed of straight flexible beams connected via rigid rotational joints. The integration of planar curved flexible beams into these linkages significantly broadens their design space, allo ...

Good enough: Intermediate complexity atmospheric models improve the representation of processes affecting seasonal snow

Dylan Stewart Reynolds

Snow plays a crucial role in processes regulating ecosystems, the climate, and human development. Mountain snowpack in particular has great relevance for downstream communities. Knowledge about the distribution and properties of the snowpack thus help in p ...

Pseudo-Three-Dimensional Analytical Model of Linear Induction Motors for High-Speed Applications

Mario Paolone, André Hodder, Simone Rametti, Lucien André Félicien Pierrejean

Literature on linear induction motors (LIMs) has proposed several approaches to model the behavior of such devices for different applications. In terms of accuracy and fidelity, field analysis-based models are the most relevant. Closed-form or numerical so ...

Engineering random spin models with atoms in a high-finesse cavity

Jean-Philippe Brantut, Nick Jacob Sauerwein, Tigrane Arthur Cantat Moltrecht, Francesca Orsi

Random spin models play a key role in our understanding of disorder and complex many-body systems. Two all-to-all interacting, disordered models have now been realized using a cavity quantum electrodynamics platform. ...

A stable loosely-coupled scheme for cardiac electro-fluid-structure interaction

Alfio Quarteroni

We present a loosely coupled scheme for the numerical simulation of the cardiac electrofluid-structure interaction problem, whose solution is typically computationally intensive due to the need to suitably treat the coupling of the different submodels. Our ...

Hailstorms and rainstorms versus supercells-a regional analysis of convective storm types in the Alpine region

Alexis Berne, Monika Feldmann

The behaviour of severe thunderstorms, particularly supercells, in complex terrain is still poorly understood. Utilising 6 years of radar-, lightning- and radiosounding-based thunderstorm data in the domain of the Swiss radar network, we study different th ...

The High-resolution Intermediate Complexity Atmospheric Research (HICAR v1.1) model enables fast dynamic downscaling to the hectometer scale

Franziska Gerber, Dylan Stewart Reynolds

High-resolution ( < 1 km) atmospheric modeling is increasingly used to study precipitation distributions in complex terrain and cryosphere-atmospheric processes. While this approach has yielded insightful results, studies over annual timescales or at the s ...

DESI mock challenge: constructing DESI galaxy catalogues based on FastPM simulations

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Cheng Zhao, Andrei Variu

Together with larger spectroscopic surveys such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), the precision of large-scale structure studies and thus the constraints on the cosmological parameters are rapidly improving. Therefore, one must build real ...

Snowfall microphysics: a dual-frequency and Doppler spectral radar perspective

Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux

Snowfall is an essential component of the hydrological cycle, as it is involved in most precipitation on Earth, either directly as snow falling to the ground or indirectly as rain melted from snow. At the same time, the ice phase of clouds and precipitatio ...

Secondary ice production processes in wintertime alpine mixed-phase clouds

Alexis Berne, Athanasios Nenes, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux, Georgia Sotiropoulou, Paraskevi Georgakaki

Observations of orographic mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) have long shown that measured ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) can exceed the concentration of ice nucleating particles by orders of magnitude. Additionally, model simulations of alpine clouds a ...
