On Quantum Speedups for Nonconvex Optimization via Quantum Tunneling Walks by Yizhou Liu, Weijie J. Su, Tongyang Li

“…We show that QTW achieves quantum speedup over classical stochastic gradient descents (SGD) when the barriers between different local minima are high but thin and the minima are flat. …”

Research on Speed Control Methods and Energy-Saving for High-Voltage Transmission Line Inspection Robots along Cable Downhill by Zhiyong Yang, Xu Liu, Cheng Ning, Lanlan Liu, Wang Tian, Haoyang Wang, Daode Zhang, Huaxu Li, Dehua Zou, Jianghua Kuang

“…To ensure the safe operation of high-voltage transmission line inspection robots during downhill descents without power and extend their range after a single charge, this paper proposes an energy-saving speed control method for the inspection robot’s walking wheel motor on downhill slopes by integrating feedback braking and fuzzy PID control. …”

On reduced models for gravity waves generated by moving bodies by Trinh, P

“…Most notably, we demonstrate, using the asymptotic method of steepest descents, how the production of free-surface waves can be related to the arrangement of integration contours connected to the shape of the moving body. …”

Establishment and Simulation of Twelve-Degree-of-Freedom Model for UAV Parachute Recovery System

“…Finally, based on the Newton-Euler equation, the 12-DOF model of UAV parachute recovery system was established, in which the unsteady aerodynamic model of the UAV from the forward flight to the steady descents was established based on the ONERA equation. …”

Electromagnetic wave propagation in the surface-ionosphere cavity of Venus by Simões, F, Hamelin, M, Grard, R, Aplin, K, Béghin, C, Berthelier, J, Besser, B, Lebreton, J, López-Moreno, J, Molina-Cuberos, G, Schwingenschuh, K, Tokano, T

“…The analytical and numerical approaches are validated against the very low frequency electric field data collected by Venera 11 and 12 during their descents through the atmosphere of Venus. Instrumentation suitable for the measurement of ELF waves in planetary atmospheres is briefly addressed. …”

Numerical Investigation of an Innovative Windbreak Design with Jet Flow Generated by an Air Curtain for Half-pipe Skiing by K. Liu, F. Liu, Q. Liu

Embedding Gauss–Bonnet Scalarization Models in Higher Dimensional Topological Theories by Carlos Herdeiro, Eugen Radu, D. H. Tchrakian

“…Here, we point out that families of such functions naturally emerge in the context of Higgs–Chern–Simons gravity models, which are found as dimensionally descents of higher dimensional, purely topological, Chern–Pontryagin non-Abelian densities. …”

Quantification du transport solide dans le bassin versant algérien du Chellif by H. BOUCHELKIA, B. REMINI

“…L'estimation des apports solides en suspension a été faite à partir des débits liquides moyens journaliers, du débit total d'une crue et de la dissociation de la crue (montée et descente). Les résultats obtenus par l'application de ce modèle sur la bassin versant du Chellif sont très encourageants, puisque les coefficients de corrélation des relations débit solide-débit liquide, annuelle et saisonnière varient de 87 % à 95 %. …”

La structuration du marché des sports d’eau vive dans les Alpes françaises by Antoine Marsac

“…À la fin des années 70, elle a connu son apogée en constituant les prémices des descentes commerciales. L’analyse des relations de concurrence et de stratégies des acteurs au sein du contexte local montre que cette offre repose sur des processus de « mise en tourisme » du territoire favorisant l’émergence d’une concurrence entre compagnies. …”

Paget’s disease of bone: the first case reported in Iraqi Kurdish by Trefa Salih Hasan, Abdulsatar Kamil Faeq

“…However, it is rarely reported among Asian descents. Case presentation Here, the first diagnosed case of Paget’s disease of bone in an Iraqi Kurdish patient, a gentleman in his seventh decade of life underwent sectional imaging for evaluation of spine hopefully to find a potential musculoskeletal or neurological culprit behind his back discomfort. …”

Carlo Michelstaedter lettore di Leonardo da Vinci fra utopia del presente e utopia della conoscenza by Elena Paroli

“…Si Léonard théorise, dans une perspective encore néo-platonicienne, le « désir » de descente du poids, Michelstaedter, de son côté, resémantise cette même image dans un horizon existentialiste : bien que le poids, pour être tel, se doive de peser et de ne jamais toucher le sol, son désir est de chuter indéfiniment. …”

Stratospheric contribution to the summertime high surface ozone events over the western united states by Xinyue Wang, Yutian Wu, William Randel, Simone Tilmes

“…Both modes are associated with eastward propagating baroclinic systems, which are amplified near the end of the North Pacific storm tracks, leading to strong descents over the western U.S.…”

La revisitation du mythe de la catabase dans Il giardino dei Finzi Contini de Giorgio Bassani by Sophie Nezri-Dufour

“…Bassani utilise le schème et le mythème de la catabase, de la descente aux Enfers, à la fois classique, antique et dantesque, en l’adaptant à une situation tout à fait particulière : non plus celle d’Enée, exilé troyen, ou de Dante, exilé florentin, mais celle d’un jeune exilé juif durant la Shoah qui vit l’enfer de la passion et des persécutions. …”

Enumeration of Stack-Sorting Preimages via a Decomposition Lemma by Colin Defant

“…We also find an explicit formula for $|s^{-1}(\text{Av}_{n,k}(231,312,321))|$, where $\text{Av}_{n,k}(231,312,321)$ is the set of permutations in $\text{Av}_n(231,312,321)$ with $k$ descents. This allows us to prove a conjectured identity involving Catalan numbers and order ideals in Young's lattice.…”

Development of Equipment for Ski Mountaineering, a New Olympic Event by Lorenzo Bortolan, Barbara Pellegrini, Nina Verdel, Hans-Christer Holmberg, Matej Supej

“…Skis, boots, and bindings must be light enough to facilitate climbing uphill (in which as much as 85% of the total racing time is spent) and, at the same time, provide stability and safety in often-challenging descents. A skier must be able to easily and rapidly attach and remove the adhesive skins under the skis that provide grip while skiing uphill. …”
