Interesting new results from CMS. High-precision measurement of the W boson mass. Is the result consistent with the SM? If curious, join this CERN seminar: https://lnkd.in/dsZN5Psc

The Background Oriented Schlieren (BOS) method is a new fluid visualization technique and is based on the principles of the traditional Schlieren method. While the Schlieren method is a qualitative measurement, the BOS method allows quantitative measurements to be made with simpler optical arrangements. This is the result of BOS' analysis of the droplets and airflow using a simulated sneeze generator. By courtesy of Ota laboratory at Chiba University Learn more here: https://bit.ly/41Y0omP

Wonderful time at the 22nd International Symposium on Geo-disaster Reduction (#ISGdR) in #Salerno, Italy to present my study on 'Multiscale simulation of progressive #landslides by the adaptive RDFA method' last week. RDFA allows for adaptive node adjustments at crack tips while satisfying strength criteria, effectively capturing the initiation and propagation of zero-thickness cracks. Meanwhile, the global equilibrium equation has been deduced, enabling the simultaneous solution of continuous and discontinuous problems using a unified mathematical model. Additionally, it facilitates the automatic transformation of rock from continuum to discontinuum.

Hot off the press in Physical Review E. Synchronization through frequency shuffling (https://t.co/htO0j2QJO6) - We probe the effect of temporal heterogeneity in oscillator networks through frequency shuffling. - Synchronization is achieved at significantly lower coupling strengths. - Experimentally shown in time-varying networks of Wein bridge oscillators.

#CMSPaper 1348 uses the rare collisions where LHC acts as a boson collider, and then studies collisions of same-charge W bosons. Those are interesting because those collisions are some of the most sensitive to Higgs-y quantum fluctuations from undiscovered particles and an excellent way to test the standard model. This specific paper uses signatures where the W bosons decay to tau leptons, which are experimentally challenging (so loads of #machinelearning is employed) https://buff.ly/4hfR3P9

Hello all! I am proud to announce that I have just presented my third conference paper for the year! Within the work titled "Identification of Parameters for Tethered Satellite System to Emulate Net-Captured Debris Towing", a parameter identification framework was formulation such that the dynamics of a lower-order Tethered Satellite System (TSS) model best match that of a higher-order net-captured towed debris system in simulation. This paper is one of the relatively few works in literature that studies the post-capture dynamics of net-based debris removal systems. The extended abstract for the paper can be viewed within this link: https://lnkd.in/e6DRiCcJ

Excited to share my latest blog post discussing the derivation of locally weighted ensemble Kalman methods, presenting a possible candidate for combining the strengths of the particle filter and the Ensemble Kalman filter. Check it out here: https://bit.ly/3ufEHml

📃Scientific paper: Some simple theories of gravity with propagating nonmetricity Abstract: We investigate symmetric Metric-Affine Theories of Gravity with a Lagrangian containing all operators of dimension up to four that are relevant to free propagation in flat space. Complementing recent work in the antisymmetric case, we derive the conditions for the existence of a single massive particle with good properties, in addition to the graviton. ;Comment: 20 pages Continued on ES/IODE ➡️ https://etcse.fr/MwIP ------- If you find this interesting, feel free to follow, comment and share.

I am pleased to share with you that my first scientific paper is now available on the arXiv! Title: Hydrodynamic limit for a boundary-driven facilitated exclusion process 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gKNgKEM4 In this joint work with Marielle Simon and Clément Erignoux, we consider a specific model of kinetically constrained lattice gas called Facilitated Exclusion Process (FEP) when put in contact with boundary reservoirs. We study in great details its stationary states and we prove that, under suitable spacetime scaling, the evolution of its macroscopic density of particles is described by a fast diffusion equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. This model exhibits a quite peculiar behaviour as those boundary conditions are not standard.
