Forward doubly-virtual Compton scattering off the nucleon in chiral perturbation theory: The subtraction function and moments of unpolarized structur…
2020
The forward doubly-virtual Compton scattering (VVCS) off the nucleon contains a wealth of information on nucleon structure, relevant to the calculation of the two-photon-exchange effects in atomic spectroscopy and electron scattering. We report on a complete next-to-leading-order (NLO) calculation of low-energy VVCS in chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT). Here we focus on the unpolarized VVCS amplitudes $T_1(\nu, Q^2)$ and $T_2(\nu, Q^2)$, and the corresponding structure functions $F_1(x, Q^2)$ and $F_2(x,Q^2)$. Our results are confronted, where possible, with "data-driven" dispersive evaluations of low-energy structure quantities, such as nucleon polarizabilities. We find significant dis…
A critical assessment of methods for the determination of the shear stress amplitude in multiaxial fatigue criteria belonging to critical plane class
2015
Abstract Multiaxial high cycle fatigue criteria based on the critical plane approach necessitate unambiguous definitions of the amplitude and mean value of the shear stress (τa and τm) acting on the material planes. Four of the existing definitions relate the values of τa and τm to a geometrical element of the curve described by the tip of the shear stress vector (curve Ψ), respectively, the radius of the Minimum Circumscribed Circle, the Longest Chord, the Longest Projection, the diagonal of the Maximum Rectangular Hull (MRH). In this paper a critical assessment of the above definitions is proposed, focusing on that based on the concept of MRH, which is the most recently developed. The mai…
Crack growth in fillet welded steel joints subjected to membrane and bending loading modes
2020
Abstract The present paper presents the results from extensive studies of the fatigue damage evolution in fillet welded steel joints subjected to Constant Amplitude (CA) stress under membrane and bending loading modes. The welded joints in question are F class details (category 71) with plate thicknesses ranging from 25 to 32 mm. The steel quality is a medium strength carbon manganese steel. Crack growth histories for the shallow semi-elliptical shaped cracks emanating from the weld toe are obtained by an Alternating Current Potential Drop (ACPD) technique. These growth histories are presented in detail and modelled by Linear Elastic Facture Mechanics (LEFM). The calculations follow the rec…
Search by Quantum Walks on Two-Dimensional Grid without Amplitude Amplification
2013
We study search by quantum walk on a finite two dimensional grid. The algorithm of Ambainis, Kempe, Rivosh [AKR05] uses \(O(\sqrt{N \log{N}})\) steps and finds a marked location with probability O(1 / logN) for grid of size \(\sqrt{N} \times \sqrt{N}\). This probability is small, thus [AKR05] needs amplitude amplification to get Θ(1) probability. The amplitude amplification adds an additional \(O(\sqrt{\log{N}})\) factor to the number of steps, making it \(O(\sqrt{N} \log{N})\).
Automatic estimation of Purkinje-Myocardial junction hot-spots from noisy endocardial samples: A simulation study
2017
The reconstruction of the ventricular cardiac conduction system (CCS) from patient-specific data is a challenging problem. High-resolution imaging techniques have allowed only the segmentation of proximal sections of the CCS from images acquired ex vivo. In this paper, we present an algorithm to estimate the location of a set of Purkinje-myocardial junctions (PMJs) from electro-anatomical maps, as those acquired during radio-frequency ablation procedures. The method requires a mesh representing the myocardium with local activation time measurements on a subset of nodes. We calculate the backwards propagation of the electrical signal from the measurement points to all the points in the mesh …
Revisitation of Nonorthogonal Spin Adaptation in Coupled Cluster Theory.
2015
The benefits of what is alternatively called a nonorthogonally spin-adapted, spin-free, or orbital representation of the coupled cluster equations is discussed relative to orthogonally spin-adapted, spin-orbital, and spin-integrated theories. In particular, specific linear combinations of the orbital cluster amplitudes, denoted spin-summed amplitudes, are shown to reduce the number of contractions that must be explicitly performed and to simplify the expressions and their derivation. The computational efficiency of the spin-summed approach is discussed and compared to orthogonally spin-adapted and spin-integrated approaches. The spin-summed approach is shown to have significant computationa…

Robustness of 40 Gb/s ASK modulation formats in the practical system infrastructure.
2006
In this work, we analyzed by means of numerical and laboratory experiments the resilience of 40 Gb/s amplitude shift keying modulation formats to transmission impairments in standard single-mode fiber lines as well as to optical filtering introduced by the optical add/drop multiplexer cascade. Our study is a pre-requisite to assess the implementation of cost-effective 40 Gb/s modulation technology in next generation high bit-rate robust optical transport networks. © 2006 Optical Society of America.
Performance Comparison of Duobinary Modulation Formats for 40 Gb/s Long-Haul WDM Transmissions
2006
With their compact spectrum and high tolerance to residual chromatic dispersion, duobinary formats are attractive for the deployment of 40 Gb/s technology on 10 Gb/s WDM Long-Haul transmission infrastructures. Here, we compare the robustness of various duobinary formats when facing 40 Gb/s transmission impairments.
