Diatom-based evidence for abrupt climate changes during the Late Glacial in the Southern Carpathian Mountains [PDF]
A high-resolution paleolimnological record from Lake Brazi (TDB-1; 45°23’47″N, 22°54’06″E, 1740 m a.s.l.), a small, glacial lake in the Retezat (South Carpathian Mountains, Romania) provides a sensitive record of the impacts of late glacial climatic ...

Multi-Wavelength Observations of PKS 2142-75 during Active and Quiescent Gamma-Ray States
PKS2142-75 (a.k.a. 2FGL J2147.4-7534) is a flat-spectrum radio quasar that was observed quasi-simultaneously by a suite of instruments across the elec- tromagnetic spectrum during two flaring states in April 2010 and August 2011 as well as a quiescent ...

A phase field method to simulate crack nucleation and propagation in strongly heterogeneous materials from direct imaging of their microstructure [PDF]
International audienceIn this work, crack initiation and propagation in 2D and 3D highly heterogeneous materials models, such as those obtained by micro-CT imagery of cementitious materials, is investigated for the first time by means of the phase field ...

Using NWP to assess the influence of the Arctic atmosphere on mid-latitude weather and climate [PDF]
The influence of the Arctic atmosphere on Northern Hemisphere mid-latitude tropospheric weather and climate is explored by comparing the skill of two sets of 14-day weather forecast experiments using the ECMWF model with and without relaxation of the ...

Characterizing approximate-matching dependencies in formal concept analysis with pattern structures [PDF]
Functional dependencies (FDs) provide valuable knowledge on the relations between attributes of a data table. A functional dependency holds when the values of an attribute can be determined by another. It has been shown that FDs can be expressed in terms

Modeling radiocarbon constraints on the dilution of dissolved organic carbon in the deep ocean [PDF]
The recalcitrance of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) that leads to its accumulation in the deep ocean is typically considered a function of its reactivity.

Lyapunov-based control of non isothermal continuous stirred tank reactors using irreversible thermodynamics. [PDF]
International audienceIn this paper, the thermodynamic availability function is used as a Lyapunov function for the practical derivation of non linear control laws for the stabilization of a large class of CSTRs far from the equilibrium.

Collective control strategy for a cluster of stall-regulated offshore wind turbines [PDF]
The power converter is one of the most vulnerable components of a wind turbine. When the converter of an offshore wind turbine malfunctions, it could be difficult to resolve due to poor accessibility.

Deep learning for gradient flows using the Brezis–Ekeland principle [PDF]
summary:We propose a deep learning method for the numerical solution of partial differential equations that arise as gradient flows. The method relies on the Brezis–Ekeland principle, which naturally defines an objective function to be minimized, and so ...
