From thin plates to Ahmed bodies: linear and weakly nonlinear stability of rectangular prisms

Edouard Boujo, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

We study the stability of laminar wakes past three-dimensional rectangular prisms. The width-to-height ratio is set to W/H = 1.2, while the length-to-height ratio 1/6 < L/H < 3 covers a wide range of geometries from thin plates to elongated Ahmed bodies. F ...

From coating flow patterns to porous body wake dynamics via multiscale models

Pier Giuseppe Ledda

Multiscale phenomena are involved in countless problems in fluid mechanics. Coating flows are known to exhibit a broad variety of patterns, such as wine tears in a glass and dripping of fresh paint applied on a wall. Coating flows are typically modeled und ...

From Trees to Barcodes and Back Again: A Combinatorial, Probabilistic and Geometric Study of a Topological Inverse Problem

Adélie Eliane Garin

In this thesis, we investigate the inverse problem of trees and barcodes from a combinatorial, geometric, probabilistic and statistical point of view. Computing the persistent homology of a merge tree yields a barcode B. Reconstructing a tree from B invol ...

Postbuckling behavior and imperfection sensitivity of elastic-plastic periodic plate-lattice materials

Fani Derveni

Advances in additive manufacturing have enabled a new generation of materials with advantageous properties inherent to their architecture. Recently, architected materials with periodic arrangements of plates, called plate-lattice materials, have been devel ...

Learning dynamical systems with bifurcations

Aude Billard, Farshad Khadivar, Ilaria Lauzana

Trajectory planning through dynamical systems (DS) provides robust control for robots and has found numerous applications from locomotion to manipulation. However, to date, DS for controlling rhythmic patterns are distinct from DS used to control point to ...

The effects of Prandtl number on the nonlinear dynamics of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in two dimensions

Jeremy Peter Parker

It is known that the pitchfork bifurcation of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability occurring at minimum gradient Richardson number Ri(m) similar or equal to 1/4 in viscous stratified shear flows can be subcritical or supercritical depending on the value of the Pra ...

Global bifurcation at isolated singular points of the Hadamard derivative

Charles Stuart

Consider F is an element of C(RxX,Y) such that F(lambda, 0) = 0 for all lambda is an element of R, where X and Y are Banach spaces. Bifurcation from the line Rx{0} of trivial solutions is investigated in cases where F(lambda, center dot ) need not be Frech ...

Tree in Tree: from Decision trees to Decision Graphs

Mahsa Shoaran, Bingzhao Zhu

Decision trees have been widely used as classifiers in many machine learning applications thanks to their lightweight and interpretable decision process. This paper introduces Tree in Tree decision graph (TnT), a framework that extends the conventional dec ...

Qualitative properties and global bifurcation of solutions for a singular boundary value problem

Charles Stuart

This paper deals with a singular, nonlinear Sturm-Liouville problem of the form {A(x)u'(x)}'+ lambda u (x) = f (x, u(x), u'(x)) on (0,1) where A is positive on (0,1] but decays quadratically to zero as x approaches zero. This is the lowest level of degener ...

Stability Analysis For A Family Of Degenerate Semilinear Parabolic Problems Charles

Charles Stuart

This paper deals with the initial value problem for a class of degenerate nonlinear parabolic equations on a bounded domain in R-N for N >= 2 with the Dirichlet boundary condition. The assumptions ensure that u (math) 0 is a stationary solution and its sta ...

Programmable Multistable Mechanisms: Design, modeling, characterization and applications

Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty

Multistable Mechanisms are mechanical devices having more than one stable state. Since these mechanisms can maintain different deformations with zero force, they are advantageous for low power environments such as wristwatches and medical devices. In this ...

Bifurcation Dynamics of a Particle-Encapsulating Droplet in Shear Flow

François Gallaire, Lailai Zhu

To understand the behavior of composite fluid particles such as nucleated cells and double emulsions in flow, we study a finite-size particle encapsulated in a deforming droplet under shear flow as a model system. In addition to its concentric particle-dro ...

Higher-order continuation method for the rigid-body kinematic design of compliant mechanisms

Simon Nessim Henein, Lennart Rubbert

Compliant mechanisms are of great interest in precision engineering. In this paper we propose a higher order continuation method to help their rigid-body kinematic design. The method helps to investigate the choice of a mechanism configuration through the ...

Optimal Software Patching Plan for PMUs

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Teklemariam Tsegay Tesfay

Phasor measurement units (PMUs) deployed to monitor the state of an electrical grid need to be patched from time to time to prevent attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in the software. Applying some of these patches requires a PMU reboot, which takes the ...

Bifurcation points of a singular boundary-value problem on (0,1)

Charles Stuart

Following earlier work on some special cases [17,11] and on the analogous problem in higher dimensions [10,20], we make a more thorough investigation of the bifurcation points for a nonlinear boundary value problem of the form -{A(x)u' (x)}'.= f (lambda, x ...

Automated Reconstruction of Evolving Curvilinear Tree Structures

Przemyslaw Rafal Glowacki

Curvilinear networks are prevalent in nature and span many different scales, ranging from micron-scale neural structures in the brain to petameter-scale dark-matter arbors binding massive galaxy clusters. Reliably reconstructing them in an automated fashio ...

Fiber connectivity and bifurcation diagrams of almost toric integrable systems

Tudor Ratiu

We describe the bifurcation diagrams of almost toric integrable Hamiltonian systems on a four dimensional symplectic manifold M, not necessarily compact. We prove that, under a weak assumption, the connectivity of the fibers of the induced singular Lagrang ...

The temporal patterns of disease severity and prevalence in schistosomiasis

RRB Vector: A Practical General Purpose Immutable Sequence

State-of-the-art immutable collections have wildly differing performance characteristics across their operations, often forcing programmers to choose different collection implementations for each task. Thus, changes to the program can invalidate the choice ...

Bifurcation without Frechet differentiability at the trivial solution

Charles Stuart

Criteria for the bifurcation of small solutions of an equation F(lambda,u) = 0 from a line {(lambda,0): lambda is an element of R} of trivial solutions are usually based on properties of the DuF(lambda,0) at the trivial solutions, where the partial derivat ...
