Anomalous diffusion and nonlinear relaxation phenomena in stochastic models of interdisciplinary physics
2020
The study of nonlinear dynamical systems in the presence of both Gaussian and non-Gaussian noise sources is the topic of this research work. In particular, after shortly present new theoretical results for statistical characteristics in the framework of Markovian theory, we analyse four different physical systems in the presence of Levy noise source. (a) The residence time problem of a particle subject to a non-Gaussian noise source in arbitrary potential profile was analyzed and the exact analytical results for the statistical characteristics of the residence time for anomalous diffusion in the form of Levy flights in fully unstable potential profile was obtained. Noise enhanced stability …
Optimal design of new steel connections
2019
The Limited Resistance Rigid Perfectly Plastic Hinge (LRPH) are special steel connections mainly usable to join beam elements of plane or spa-tial steel frames. The fundamental characteristics of these devices are the mutu-al independence of their own resistance and stiffness features as well as the re-spect of assigned constraints related to the elastic and limit behaviour of the joined elements. Within the frame structural scheme, the device plays the role of a rigid perfectly plastic hinge, constituted by a suitably sized sandwich sec-tion. The efficient use of the LRPH in the relevant frame depends on the appro-priate design of the device geometry. In the present paper, a new approach d…
Impact of the use of sterically congested Ir(III) complexes on the performance of light-emitting electrochemical cells
2018
International audience; The synthesis, structural and optoelectronic characterization of a family of sterically congested cyclometalated cationic Ir(iii) complexes of the form [Ir(C^N)2(dtBubpy)]PF6 (with dtBubpy = 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine and C^N = a cyclometalating ligand decorated at the 4-position of the pyridine ring and/or the 3-position of the phenyl ring with a range of sterically bulky substituents) are reported. This family of complexes is compared to the unsubstituted analogue complex R1 bearing 2-phenylpyridinato as cyclometalating ligand. The impact of sterically bulky substituents on the C^N ligands on both the solid state photophysics and light-emitting electrochemi…
Stochastic analysis of motorcycle dynamics
2011
Off-road and racing motorcycles require a particular setup of the suspensions to improve the comfort and the safety of the rider, maintaining a continuous contact between the road and the motorcycle (by means of the tires). Further, because of the ground roughness, in the case of offroad motorcycle, suspensions usually experience extreme and erratic excursions (suspension stroke) in performing their function. In this regard, the adoption of nonlinear devices can, perhaps, limit both the acceleration experienced by the sprung mass and the excursions of the suspensions. This leads to the consideration of asymmetric nonlinearly-behaving suspensions. This option, however, induces the difficulty…
A digital device for the diagnosis of insulation systems
2004
A complete innovative measurement system (D2SI - device for the diagnosis of insulation systems) for both acquisition, analysis and processing of partial discharge signals generated in insulation systems under voltage stress (IEC standard), was designed and realized; several measurements on practical insulation systems demonstrated the full and correct equipment operation.
Limited Resistance Rigid Perfectly Plastic Hinges for Steel Frames
2017
The paper concerns the proposal of a new special device for steel frames that can be utilized as external constraint as well as internal one connecting the structure beam elements. The device is designed as a rigid perfectly plastic hinge characterized by suitably chosen stiffness and resistance. Its constituting material is steel. The elastic stiffness and the limit resistance, treated as independent of each other, are fixed with the aim of satisfying special features required to the structure. The proposed device is thought as a sandwich section with wing thickness appropriately variable. Its dimensions are designed so that it can exhibit the fixed independent stiffness and limit resistan…
A geometrical approach for inverting display color-characterization models
2008
— Some display color-characterization models are not easily inverted. This work proposes ways to build geometrical inverse models given any forward color-characterization model. The main contribution is to propose and analyze several methods to optimize the 3-D geometrical structure of an inverse color-characterization model directly based on the forward model. Both the amount of data and their distribution in color space is especially focused on. Several optimization criteria, related either to an evaluation data set or to the geometrical structure itself, are considered. A practical case with several display devices, combining the different methods proposed in the article, are considered …
Hume en Deleuze: los primeros lineamientos del empirismo trascendental
2012
Deleuze gustaba de parangonar su quehacer filosófico con una suerte de patchwork o collage: un pensamiento al estilo Arlequín, abigarrado y hecho de fragmentos no totalizables. Tal es el pluralismo (o empirismo) reivindicado por el filósofo francés, y también su resultado: un bizarro mosaico hecho de encuentros o téléscopages entre autores aparentemente no relacionados. No obstante, el caso de Empirismo y subjetividad (1953) resulta un tanto extraño: no parece encajar en este complejo puzzle, y la infravaloración de la que adolece en numerosos comentarios sobre Deleuze tiende a reforzar ese prejuicio. Por el contrario, nos proponemos mostrar que este estudio sobre Hume contiene las primeras…
Iridium(III) Complexes with Phenyl-tetrazoles as Cyclometalating Ligands
2014
Ir(II) cationic complexes with cyclometalating tetrazolate ligands were prepared for the first time, following a two-step strategy based on (i) a silver-assisted cyclometalation reaction of a tetrazole derivative with IrCl3 affording a bis-cyclometalated solvato-complex P ([Ir(ptrz)(2)(CH3CN)(2)](+), Hptrz = 2-methyl-5-phenyl-2H-tetrazole); (ii) a substitution reaction with five neutral ancillary ligands to get [Ir(ptrz)(2)L](+), with L = 2,2'-bypiridine (1), 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine (2), 1,10-phenanthroline (3), and 2-(1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridine (4), and [Ir(ptrz)(2)L-2](+), with L = tertbutyl isocyanide (5). X-ray crystal structures of P, 2, and 3 were solved. Elect…
Bimodal Approach for Noise Figures of Merit Evaluation in Quantum-Limited Josephson Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers
2022
The advent of ultra-low noise microwave amplifiers revolutionized several research fields demanding quantum-limited technologies. Exploiting a theoretical bimodal description of a linear phase-preserving amplifier, in this contribution we analyze some of the intrinsic properties of a model architecture (i.e., an rf-SQUID based Josephson Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifier) in terms of amplification and noise generation for key case study input states (Fock and coherents). Furthermore, we present an analysis of the output signals generated by the parametric amplification mechanism when thermal noise fluctuations feed the device.
