Stochastic response determination of nonlinear oscillators with fractional derivatives elements via the Wiener path integral
2014
A novel approximate analytical technique for determining the non-stationary response probability density function (PDF) of randomly excited linear and nonlinear oscillators endowed with fractional derivatives elements is developed. Specifically, the concept of the Wiener path integral in conjunction with a variational formulation is utilized to derive an approximate closed form solution for the system response non-stationary PDF. Notably, the determination of the non-stationary response PDF is accomplished without the need to advance the solution in short time steps as it is required by the existing alternative numerical path integral solution schemes which rely on a discrete version of the…
The Neural Bases of Event Monitoring across Domains: a Simultaneous ERP-fMRI Study.
2017
The ability to check and evaluate the environment over time with the aim to detect the occurrence of target stimuli is supported by sustained/tonic as well as transient/phasic control processes, which overall might be referred to as event monitoring. The neural underpinning of sustained attentional control processes involves a fronto-parietal network. However, it has not been well-defined yet whether this cortical circuit acts irrespective of the specific material to be monitored and whether this mediates sustained as well as transient monitoring processes. In the current study, the functional activity of brain during an event monitoring task was investigated and compared between two cognit…
Molecular structures inT=1states of10B
2011
Multi-center (molecular) structures can play an important role in light nuclei. The highly deformed rotational band in 10Be with band head at 6.179 MeV has been observed recently and suggested to have an exotic alpha:2n:alpha configuration. A search for states with alpha:pn:alpha two-center molecular configurations in 10B that are analogous to the states with alpha:2n:alpha structure in 10Be has been performed. The T=1 isobaric analog states in 10B were studied in the excitation energy range of E=8.7-12.1 MeV using the reaction 1H(9Be,alpha)6Li*(T=1, 0+, 3.56 MeV). An R-matrix analysis was used to extract parameters for the states observed in the (p,alpha) excitation function. Five T=1 stat…
A new resonance in thee-H2-scattering
1969
A short-lived compound state of the systeme-H2 in the energy region from 13.5 to 15 eV has been investigated. It desintegrates preferably into theC 1 π u v=0, 1, 2, 3,... vibrational states of H2. Excitation functions and angular dependences of these states have been measured. The H2 vibrational levels are situated at 13.63, 13.93, 14.20, 14.70, 14.92,... eV. The shape of the potential energy curve and the internuclear distance of the compound state should be very similar to that of theC 1 π u resp.D 1 π u state ofH 2.

Mechanisms of covalent dimerization on a bulk insulating surface
2017
Combining density functional theory and high resolution NC-AFM experiments, we have studied the on surface reaction mechanisms' responsible for the covalent dimerization of 4-iodobenzoic acid (IBA) organic molecules on the calcite (10.4), insulating surface. When annealed at 580 K, the Molecules assemble in one-dimensional chains of covalently bound dimers: The chains have a unique orientation and result from a complex set of processes, including a nominally rather. costly double dehalogenation reaction followed by dimerization. First, focusing on the latter two processes and using the nudged elastic band method, we analyze a number of possible mechanisms involving one and two molecules, an…
Gold nanoparticles/electrochemically expanded graphite composite: A bifunctional platform toward glucose sensing and SERS applications
2019
Abstract An integrated nanogold/expanded graphite based sensor was fabricated by a former electrochemical etching of the pencil lead electrode (PLE) and a later in-situ deposition of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The electrochemical pretreatment of PLE (EPLE) created a 3D graphene-like surface, enhanced the electrode surface area and facilitated the electron transfer ability within 5 min without any hazardous chemicals added. The obtained AuNPs/EPLE sensor had an excellent electrochemical response to glucose with a wide linear concentration range, from 0.05 to 38 mM and 38 to 60 mM, and a low detection limit of 5 μM (S/N = 3). Furthermore, the AuNPs/EPLE sensor was successfully employed to de…

METALANG. Protocolo franco-español de exploración de habilidades metalingüísticas en niños de 6 a 9 años: un estudio preliminar
2012
International audience; In this work are described the principles of functional-pragmatic and the reasons for developing an exploration protocol for natural metalinguistic abilities. This study explains the base hypothesis and structure of METALANG protocol. This protocol consists in a Test and a Questionnaire for parents with two different scales: A = Ability, B = Frequency. Each element of the protocol has 6 sections and 40 items. It is performed a preliminary contrast with 12 subjects aged 6 to 9 years. Among the 12 subjects, 4 were diagnosed with dysphasia. METALANG shows high scores in reliability and internal consistency. This result confirms the hypothesis that it is possible a joint…
Consecuencias del manejo integrado de malas hierbas sobre la organización del trabajo y la rentabilidad económica de la explotación agrícola
2008
International audience; Este trabajo tiene por objeto analizar la viabilidad de los sistemas de protección integrada de malas hierbas desde el punto de vista de la organización del trabajo y de la rentabilidad económica. Para ello se comparan cuatro sistemas de protección integrada que reducen o suprimen el aporte de herbicidas, con un sistema convencional. La metodología combina el uso de un programa de simulación con los resultados reales obtenidos en ensayos localizados en una finca experimental del INRA en Dijon (Francia) durante el periodo de 2000 a 2006. Así, se estiman los problemas de organización de trabajo y el margen neto de las explotaciones utilizando los datos reales del exper…
