Comparing Tangible and Fully Virtual Haptic Systems for HMI Studies in Simulated Driving Situations
2019
International audience; The contribution of tangible and intangible feedback is compared for virtual tactile car Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) design, to measure their performance both in static conditions and while driving. A subjectively calibrated transparent glass provides tangible passive haptics, and visual cues are used to study sensory substitution-based intangible interactions. The results show that the performance of the subjects was significantly improved in driving conditions as they interacted faster, more accurately and with a higher satisfaction. In addition, our findings highlight that the contribution of tangible systems is significantly lower in driving conditions, raisin…
Human digital twins and cognitive mimetic
2021
Digital twins – digital models of technical systems and processes – have recently been introduced to work with complex industrial processes. Yet should such models concern only physical objects (as definitions of them often imply), or should users and other human beings also be included? Models that include people have been called human digital twins (HDTs); they facilitate more accurate analyses of technologies in practical use. The cognitive mimetic approach can be used to describe human interactions with technologies. This approach analyses human information processes such as perceiving and thinking to mimic how people process information in order to design intelligent technologies. The …
Implicit learning
2008
International audience; All of us have learned much about language, music, physical or social environment, and other complex domains, out of any intentional attempts to acquire information. This chapter describes first how studies investigating this form of learning in laboratory situations have shifted from a rule-based interpretation to interpretations assuming a progressive tuning to the statistical regularities of the environment. The next section examines the potential of statistical learning, and whether statistical learning stems from statistical computations or chunk formation. Then the acceptations in which this form of learning may be qualified as implicit are analysed. Finally, i…
Metal/Semiconductor Barrier Properties of Non-Recessed Ti/Al/Ti and Ta/Al/Ta Ohmic Contacts on AlGaN/GaN Heterostructures
2019
This paper compares the metal/semiconductor barrier height properties of non-recessed Ti/Al/Ti and Ta/Al/Ta contacts on AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. Both contacts exhibited a rectifying behavior after deposition and after annealing at temperatures up to 550 °
Convectively driven vortex flows in the Sun
2008
We have discovered small whirlpools in the Sun, with a size similar to the terrestrial hurricanes (<~0.5 Mm). The theory of solar convection predicts them, but they had remained elusive so far. The vortex flows are created at the downdrafts where the plasma returns to the solar interior after cooling down, and we detect them because some magnetic bright points (BPs) follow a logarithmic spiral in their way to be engulfed by a downdraft. Our disk center observations show 0.009 vortexes per Mm^2, with a lifetime of the order of 5 min, and with no preferred sense of rotation. They are not evenly spread out over the surface, but they seem to trace the supergranulation and the mesogranulation. T…
Breakdown of Burton-Prime-Slichter approach and lateral solute segregation in radially converging flows
2005
A theoretical study is presented of the effect of a radially converging melt flow, which is directed away from the solidification front, on the radial solute segregation in simple solidification models. We show that the classical Burton-Prim-Slichter (BPS) solution describing the effect of a diverging flow on the solute incorporation into the solidifying material breaks down for the flows converging along the solidification front. The breakdown is caused by a divergence of the integral defining the effective boundary layer thickness which is the basic concept of the BPS theory. Although such a divergence can formally be avoided by restricting the axial extension of the melt to a layer of fi…
Convexities and optimal transport problems on the Wiener space
2013
The aim of this PhD is to study the optimal transportation theory in some abstract Wiener space. You can find the results in four main parts and they are aboutThe convexity of the relative entropy. We will extend the well known results in finite dimension to the Wiener space, endowed with the uniform norm. To be precise the relative entropy is (at least weakly) geodesically 1-convex in the sense of the optimal transportation in the Wiener space.The measures with logarithmic concave density. The first important result consists in showing that the Harnack inequality holds for the semi-group induced by such a measure in the Wiener space. The second one provides us a finite dimensional and dime…
Preliminary studies on the synthesis of alkaline-free large crystals of ZSM-5
1988
Single crystals of ZSM-5 were synthesized in three systems containing Na + -TPA, Li + -TPA, and NH 4 + -TPA, respectively. Applying a reaction mixture of the molar composition 8 TPA + 123(NH 4 ) 2 O + Al 2 O 3 + 59 SiO 2 + 2280 H 2 O, alkaline-free, homogeneous, and pure single crystals of ZSM-5 were prepared up to a length of 350 μm. The crystal size and yield were found to be dependent on the water content of the starting reaction mixture and on the type of aluminium source; for example, boehmite and aluminiumtriisopropylate.
‘We hugged each other during the cold nights’: the role of affect in an anti-deportation protest network in Finland
2021
This article analyses the role of affect and emotions in Finland’s first large-scale anti-deportation protest, the 2017 Right to Live protest in Helsinki. Despite deportation protests having recently gained scholarly attention, their emotional dimensions have not been sufficiently studied, especially as concerns the emotions of protestors with vulnerable legal status. This article is based on in-depth interviews with key activists in the anti-deportation protest network in Finland, including asylum seekers, refugees and Finnish citizens. The article argues that in order for the protest of asylum seekers facing the threat of deportation to become public and visible, it was important that cit…
Working in the mirror: The safety and effectiveness of closure access leading venous advanced gain new ability in a patient with dextrocardia
2018
The evolution of devices in serious cardiac rhythm pathology management and in other medicine areas and its optimal management have progressively become a worldwide serious challenge. We present an upgrading to dual chamber im-plantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) without complications in a 68 year old woman through closure access leading venous advanced gain new ability, complementing the mechanical multiple venous entry-site approach extraction. This is another of the few cases present in literature about ICD in patients with dextrocardia and it focuses on the safety and effectiveness of our simple technique also in a patient with dextrocardia.
