The Chardonnay wine olfactory concept revisited: A stable core of volatile compounds, and fuzzy boundaries
2011
Abstract An earlier study by the same team showed that Chardonnay wines have common olfactory properties by which wine experts can recognize them. The specific Chardonnay olfactory space was also tentatively linked to the relative concentrations of 29 volatile compounds, regarded as possible aroma-impact compounds. The question now is whether or not those initial results hold independently of the sample under consideration, that is, whether these sensory and chemical spaces are vintage-specific. A series of investigations was conducted on a new set of 46 wines (23 Chardonnay wines and 23 non Chardonnay wines) using the same sensory (wine typicality level) and physico-chemical (Gas Chromatog…

Gradient estimates for solutions to quasilinear elliptic equations with critical sobolev growth and hardy potential
2015
This note is a continuation of the work \cite{CaoXiangYan2014}. We study the following quasilinear elliptic equations \[ -\Delta_{p}u-\frac{\mu}{|x|^{p}}|u|^{p-2}u=Q(x)|u|^{\frac{Np}{N-p}-2}u,\quad\, x\in\mathbb{R}^{N}, \] where $1<p<N,0\leq\mu<\left((N-p)/p\right)^{p}$ and $Q\in L^{\infty}(\R^{N})$. Optimal asymptotic estimates on the gradient of solutions are obtained both at the origin and at the infinity.
Critical Influence of Dielectric Sensitive Material and Manufactured Process in Microwave Gas-Sensing: Application of Ammonia Detection with an Inter…
2020
In this paper, authors propose a study on microwave gas sensors and the influence of critical key parameters such as the sensitive material and the circuit conception process. This work aims to determine the influence of these parameters on the quality of the final response of the microwave gas sensor. The fixed geometry of the sensor is a microstrip interdigital capacitor coated with a sensitive layer excited with two 50 Ω SMA ports. The sensitive material has been chosen in order to interact with the target gas: ammonia. Indeed, this gas interacts with phthalocyanine and metal oxides like hematite, TiO2. To explore the effect of the circuit manufacturing process, three series of samples a…
Crystallization of hard spheres revisited. II. Thermodynamic modeling, nucleation work, and the surface of tension
2018
Combining three numerical methods (forward flux sampling, seeding of droplets, and finite-size droplets), we probe the crystallization of hard spheres over the full range from close to coexistence to the spinodal regime. We show that all three methods allow us to sample different regimes and agree perfectly in the ranges where they overlap. By combining the nucleation work calculated from forward flux sampling of small droplets and the nucleation theorem, we show how to compute the nucleation work spanning three orders of magnitude. Using a variation of the nucleation theorem, we show how to extract the pressure difference between the solid droplet and ambient liquid. Moreover, combining th…
Wavelet data analysis of EXAFS spectra
2009
Abstract The application of wavelet transform to the analysis of the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) from perovskite-type compounds is presented on the example of the Re L 3 -edge in ReO 3 and Co K-edge in LaCoO 3 . We propose a modified wavelet transform procedure, which allows better discrimination of the overlapped contributions into the EXAFS signal.
A novel policy-driven reversible anonymisation scheme for XML-based services
2015
Author's version of an article in the journal: Information Systems. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.is.2014.05.007 This paper proposes a reversible anonymisation scheme for XML messages that supports fine-grained enforcement of XACML-based privacy policies. Reversible anonymisation means that information in XML messages is anonymised, however the information required to reverse the anonymisation is cryptographically protected in the messages. The policy can control access down to octet ranges of individual elements or attributes in XML messages. The reversible anonymisation protocol effectively implements a multi-level privacy and security based approach, s…

Methods to Compute Pressure and Wall Tension in Fluids containing Hard Particles
2011
Colloidal systems are often modelled as fluids of hard particles (possibly with an additional soft attraction, e.g. caused by polymers also contained in the suspension). in simulations of such systems, the virial theorem cannot be straightforwardly applied to obtain the components of the pressure tensor. In systems confined by walls, it is hence also not straightforward to extract the excess energy due to the wall (the "wall tension") from the pressure tensor anisotropy. A comparative evaluation of several methods to circumvent this problem is presented, using as examples fluids of hard spheres and the Asakura-Oosawa model of colloid-polymer mixtures with a size ratio $q=0.15$ (for which th…
