Simple flume with a central baffle
2016
Abstract In this paper the stage-discharge relationship of a flume with a central baffle is theoretically deduced using the Buckingham-Theorem of the dimensional analysis and the self-similarity theory. The new stage-discharge equation is calibrated by the measurements carried out by Peruginelli and Bonacci using a baffle having a given throat length and five different values of the contraction ratio. Finally, for a given throat length, a relationship linking the discharge with the upstream water depth, the contraction ratio and the contracted width is deduced.
High precision numerical approach for Davey–Stewartson II type equations for Schwartz class initial data
2020
We present an efficient high-precision numerical approach for Davey–Stewartson (DS) II type equa- tions, treating initial data from the Schwartz class of smooth, rapidly decreasing functions. As with previous approaches, the presented code uses discrete Fourier transforms for the spatial dependence and Driscoll’s composite Runge–Kutta method for the time dependence. Since DS equations are non-local, nonlinear Schrödinger equations with a singular symbol for the non-locality, standard Fourier methods in practice only reach accuracy of the order of 10−6or less for typical examples. This was previously demonstrated for the defocusing integrable case by comparison with a numerical approach for …

Quantum walks: background geometry and gauge invariance
2019
Ciertos tipos de problemas no pueden resolverse usando los actuales ordenadores clásicos. Una forma de encontrar una solución, es mediante el uso de ordenadores cuánticos. Sin embargo, construir un ordenador cuántico es realmente complicado actualmente, debido a las limitaciones tecnológicas. Mientras tanto, los simuladores cuánticos han sido capaces de resolver algunos de estos problemas, ya que los simuladores cuánticos son más accesibles experimentalmente. Las llamadas caminatas cuánticas, en su versión discreta, son una herramienta muy útil para simular ciertos sistemas físicos. En el límite al continuo, se puede obtener una serie de ecuaciones diferenciales, particularmente, la ecuació…
Projet SOFT
2020
Le projet SOFT, sobriété énergétique par les formes urbaines et le transport, a abordé la question de la stratégieénergétique d’un territoire à l’aide d’un concept d’aménagement multi-échelle utilisant la géométrie fractale. Eneffet, les gains d’efficience classique (rénovation du bâti, performance des modes de transport, production localed’énergie) ne suffisent pas aujourd’hui pour assurer aux territoires une trajectoire carbone appropriée. Il estnécessaire de s’appuyer sur la sobriété énergétique, approche qui consiste à assurer la même qualité de vie auxhabitants, mais avec une baisse des consommations énergétiques qui peut s’accompagner d’une évolution despratiques. L’approche de la sob…
Improving the Use of Simulation in Nursing Education: Protocol for a Realist Review
2020
BackgroundNursing education has evolved in line with societal needs, and simulation-based learning (SBL) is increasingly being used to bridge the gap between practice and education. Previous literature reviews have demonstrated the effectiveness of using SBL in nursing education. However, there is a need to explore how and why it works to expand the theoretical foundation of SBL.ObjectiveThis review aims to understand how, why, and in what circumstances the use of simulation affects learning as part of the bachelor’s program in nursing.MethodsA realist review will be conducted in accordance with the realist template for a systematic review. In particular, we will identify and explore the un…

Computationally Efficient Innovative Techniques for the Design-Oriented Simulation of Free-Running and Driven Microwave Oscillators
2014
Analysis techniques for injection-locked oscillators/amplifiers (ILO) can be broadly divided into two classes. To the first class belong methods with a strong and rigorous theoretical basis, that can be applied to rather general circuits/systems but which are very cumbersome and/or time-consuming to apply. To the second class belong methods which are very simple and fast to apply, but either lack of validity/accuracy or are applicable only to very simple or particular cases. In this thesis, a novel method is proposed which aims at combining the rigorousness and broad applicability characterizing the first class of analysis techniques above cited with the simplicity and computational efficie…
Two‐sample problems in statistical data modelling
2010
A common problem in mathematical statistics is to check whether two samples differ from each other. From modelling point of view it is possible to make a statistical test for the equality of two means or alternatively two distribution functions. The second approach allows to represent the two‐sample test graphically. This can be done by adding simultaneous confidence bands to the probability‐probability (P — P) or quantile‐quantile (Q — Q) plots. In this paper we compare empirically the accuracy of the classical two‐sample t‐test, empirical likelihood method and several bootstrap methods. For a real data example both Q — Q and P — P plots with simultaneous confidence bands have been plotted…
