Positioning Left-hand Movement in Violin Performance: A System and User Study of Fingering Pattern Generation

Organizing fingerings, i.e., choosing which fingers to press on which positions and strings, is a crucial step for playing the violin. As the violin fingering comprises several components, the mapping of a musical phrase to the corresponding fingering arra ...

Grammar-based generation of bar networks in static equilibrium with bounded bar lengths

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Ioannis Mirtsopoulos

This paper presents a generative approach for the conceptual design of structures, which aims at exploring alternative bar networks in static equilibrium by means of a grammar rule. Operating on incomplete networks of bars in interim static equilibrium, th ...

Dissipative Kerr solitons in a photonic dimer on both sides of exceptional point

Tobias Kippenberg, Kenichi Komagata, Hairun Guo, Mikhail Churaev, Alexey Tikan, Aleksandr Tusnin

Exceptional points are a ubiquitous concept widely present in driven-dissipative coupled systems described by a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. To date, exceptional points have been extensively examined in the systems supporting only a few optical modes, thereb ...

Assessing the energy potential of modernizing the European hydropower fleet

Anton Schleiss, Elena Vagnoni

About 50% of all hydropower plants (HPPs) worldwide were originally commissioned more than 40 years ago, so that the advanced age of the fleet is a major concern across all continents, and especially in Europe. The modernization of HPPs can generate severa ...

System and method for high beam quality pulse generation in mode-locked multimode fiber lasers

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Ugur Tegin

A system and method to generate ultrashort high beam quality pulses from spatio- temporally mode-locked multimode fiber laser are described. The invention relies on engineering the intra-cavity pulse propagation in a multimode laser cavity to shape the spa ...

Swiss Potential for Hydropower Generation and Storage - Synthesis report

François Avellan, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Paolo Burlando, David Felix, Martin Schmid

Hydropower (HP) is the backbone of the Swiss electricity system providing around 60 % (36 TWh/a) of the total electricity generated on a yearly average. With the planned phase-out of nuclear power plants, HP and other Renewable Energy Sources (RES) will ne ...

Relic Gravitational Waves from the Chiral Magnetic Effect

Jennifer Waltraud Schober

Relic gravitational waves (GWs) can be produced by primordial magnetic fields. However, not much is known about the resulting GW amplitudes and their dependence on the details of the generation mechanism. Here we treat magnetic field generation through the ...
