Response of geostationary communications satellite solid-state power amplifiers to high-energy electron fluence. by Lohmeyer, Whitney, Carlton, Ashley, Wong, Frankie, Bodeau, Michael, Kennedy, Andrew, Cahoy, Kerri

“…Building on the work of Lohmeyer and Cahoy (2013), we find that anomalies occur at a rate higher than just by chance when the >2 MeV electron fluence accumulated over 14 and 21 days is elevated. …”

How Physical Proximity Shapes Complex Social Networks by Stopczynski, Arkadiusz, Pentland, Alex, Lehmann, Sune

“…Here we focus on a different dimension: rather than the strength of links, we study physical distance between individuals when a link is activated. The findings presented here are based on a dataset of proximity events in a population of approximately 500 individuals. …”

Network Dynamics of a Financial Ecosystem by Somin, Shahar, Altshuler, Yaniv, Gordon, Goren, Pentland, Alex, Shmueli, Erez

“…This quickly developing economy is comprised of tens of thousands of different financial assets with an aggregated valuation of more than 500 Billion USD and typical daily volume of 30 Billion USD, and manifests highly volatile dynamics when viewed using classic market measures. However, by applying network theory methods we demonstrate clear structural properties and converging dynamics, indicating that this ecosystem functions as a single coherent financial market. …”

Long-term equilibrium in electricity markets with renewables and energy storage only by Tarel, Guillaume, Korpås, Magnus, Botterud, Audun

“…EES charging or discharging, VRE curtailment, load shedding) and on investments costs leads to cost recovery for VRE and EES. We show that when EES is the marginal technology (either charging or discharging) the price must be non-zero. …”

Robotic right ventricle is a biohybrid platform that simulates right ventricular function in (patho)physiological conditions and intervention by Singh, Manisha, Bonnemain, Jean, Ozturk, Caglar, Ayers, Brian, Saeed, Mossab Y., Quevedo-Moreno, Diego, Rowlett, Meagan, Park, Clara, Fan, Yiling, Nguyen, Christopher T., Roche, Ellen T.

“…This model uses a biohybrid approach, combining a chemically treated endocardial scaffold with a soft robotic synthetic myocardium. When connected to a circulatory flow loop, the robotic right ventricle (RRV) replicates real-time hemodynamic changes in healthy and pathological conditions, including volume overload, RV systolic failure and pressure overload. …”

Alkali Metal Salt Interference on the Salicylate Method for Quantifying Ammonia from Nitrogen Reduction by Giner-Sanz, Juan José, Leverick, Graham M., Giordano, Livia, Pérez-Herranz, Valentín, Shao-Horn, Yang

“…This model can be used to correct the interferences on the ammonia quantification, when the interferent concentration in a sample is known (or measurable).…”

Determination of Optimal Shot Peen Forming Patterns Using the Theory of Non-Euclidean Plates by Sushitskii, Vladislav, van Rees, Wim M., Levesque, Martin, Gosselin, Frederick P.

“…Shot peen forming consists in bombarding a metal panel with multiple millimeter-sized shots that induce local bending of the panel. When applied to different areas of the panel, peen forming generates compound curvature profiles starting from a flat state. …”

Control-oriented meta-learning by Richards, Spencer M., Azizan, Navid, Slotine, Jean-Jacques, Pavone, Marco

“…With both fully-actuated and underactuated nonlinear planar rotorcraft subject to wind, we demonstrate that our adaptive controller outperforms other controllers trained with regression-oriented meta-learning when deployed in closed-loop for trajectory tracking control.…”

A Sufficient Condition for k-Contraction of the Series Connection of Two Systems by Ofir, Ron, Margaliot, Michael, Levron, Yoash, Slotine, Jean-Jacques

“…The flow of such systems contracts the volume of k-dimensional parallelotopes at an exponential rate, and in particular they reduce to contracting systems when k=1. It was shown by Muldowney and Li that time-invariant 2-contracting systems have a well-ordered asymptotic behaviour: all bounded trajectories converge to the set of equilibria. …”

Dual-frequency vortex-induced vibrations of long flexible stepped cylinders by Li, Ang, Mentzelopoulos, Andreas, Triantafyllou, Michael S., Fan, Dixia

“…In addition, it is found that forced vibration results from rigid cylinders undergoing multi-frequency IL and CF motion can improve the prediction of the multi-frequency flexible cylinder VIV, provided the amplitudes and phases, as well as the true reduced velocity Vr for each of the dual frequencies match, especially when Vr∈[4,8].…”

End-to-End Optimization of Metasurfaces for Imaging with Compressed Sensing by Arya, Gaurav, Li, William F., Roques-Carmes, Charles, Soljačić, Marin, Johnson, Steven G., Lin, Zin

“…We present a framework for the end-to-end optimization of metasurface imaging systems that reconstruct targets using compressed sensing, a technique for solving underdetermined imaging problems when the target object exhibits sparsity (e.g., the object can be described by a small number of nonzero values, but the positions of these values are unknown). …”

Opening Up the Distinguisher: A Hardness to Randomness Approach for BPL=L That Uses Properties of BPL by Doron, Dean, Pyne, Edward, Tell, Roei

“…A key contribution underlying all of our results is non-black-box use of the descriptions of space-bounded Turing machines, when proving hardness-to-randomness results. That is, the crucial point allowing us to prove our results is that we use properties that are specific to space-bounded machines.…”
