Search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in Z + γ; final states with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
Creators: Tian, Feng
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2014
Subjects: Particles (Nuclear physics)

description: This dissertation describes a search for the Standard Model Higgs boson in Z+photon channel with the ATLAS detector at the LHC using 4.6 fb⁻¹  of proton-proton collisions at center of mass energy 7 TeV in 2011 and 20.7 fb⁻¹  of proton-proton collisions at center of mass energy 8 TeV in 2012. The distribution of the mass difference between M_Zphoton and M_Z is compared to the Standard Model (SM) background expectations. No significant deviation from the SM prediction is observed and the upper limits on the signal strength μ of a Higgs boson with a mass between 120 and 150 GeV are derived. The expected exclusion limits at 95% confidence level range between 7.3 and 22.3 times the predicted Standard Model cross section. The observed exclusion limits range between 5.3 and 38.7 times the Standard Model cross section. For a Higgs boson with mass of 125.5 GeV, the expected and observed limits are 13.2 and 17.0 times the Standard Model respectively.

description: Medium ormai storicamente dotato di dignità artistica, la fotografia proietta la visione di un mondo – reale ed irreale, tangibile ed onirico – attraversato da reti di rinvii e corrispondenze, entrando in risonanza con l’universo interiore dell’osservatore, scuotendolo. Così come la metafora, trasposizione simbolica di immagini contrapposte, concede alle forme già conosciute nuove essenze. Il presente contributo propone una riflessione sull’operato di Tatge e sulla sua indagine rispetto alla cosiddetta fotografia metaforica.

description: In this paper we address the problem of continuous dependence on initial and boundary data for a one-dimensional debonding model describing a thin film peeled away from a substrate. The system underlying the process couples the weakly damped wave equation with a Griffith's criterion which rules the evolution of the debonded region. We show that under general convergence assumptions on the data the corresponding solutions converge to the limit one with respect to different natural topologies.

description: Spatially-distributed, nonequilibrium chemical systems described by a Markov chain model are considered. The evolution of such systems arises from a combination of local birth-death reactive events and random walks executed by the particles on a lattice. The parameter γ, the ratio of characteristic time scales of reaction and diffusion, is used to gauge the relative contributions of these two processes to the overall dynamics. For the case of relatively fast diffusion, i.e. γ<< 1, an approximate solution to the Markov chain in the form of a perturbation expansion in powers of γis derived. Kinetic equations for the average concentrations differ from the mass-action law and contain memory terms. For a reaction- diffusion system with Willamowski-Rossler reaction mechanism, we further derive the following two results: a) in the limit of γ--> 0 these memory terms vanish and the mass-action law is recovered; b) the memory kernel is found to assume a simple exponential form. A comparison with numerical results from lattice gas automaton simulations is also carried out.

description: We have performed cosmological hydrodynamic simulations to study the effect of fragmentation on the SMBH seed mass in the direct collapse formation scenario. We considered different background UV intensities, host halo spin, and halo merger histories. Our simulations in low-spin halos, in the presence of a strong UV background are consistent with the Direct Collapse Black Hole model, in which a single massive object $\sim10^5$ M$_{\odot}$ is formed in the center of a proto-galaxy. While in our simulations under the presence of a low UV background, we find fragmentation and the formation of various minor seeds. These fragments have masses of 10$^3$ - 10$^4$ M$_{\odot}$. These values are significant if we consider the potential mergers between them, and the fact that these minor objects are formed earlier in cosmic time compared to the massive single seeds. In one of our simulations, we observed gas fragmentation even in the presence of a strong UV intensity. Said structure arose in a dark matter halo that formed after various merger episodes, and the one with the highest spin value. The final mass obtained was $\sim 10^5$ M$_{\odot}$ in this run. From these results, we conclude that fragmentation in fact produces less massive objects, however, they are still prone to merge. In simulations that formed many fragments, they all approach the most massive one with time. We see no uniqueness in the strength of the UV intensity value required to achieve a DCBH, since it depends in other factors like the system dynamics in our cases.
Lining of the return water dam at the Onverwacht tailings storage facility
Creators: name: Addis, Philip
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The Nkomati nickel mine is located in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa. A new cross valley tailings storage facility (TSF) was constructed for the mine in 2009 at the Onverwacht site which is located about 14 km south of the mine. The TSF will have a final capacity of 90 Mt and the site development included the construction of a return water dam (RWD) with a capacity of 250 000 m³. The RWD was designed and constructed in accordance with the requirements of the South African Department of Water Affairs and Forestry’s Dam Safety Office for a Category II facility. The dam was lined with a 1.5 mm HDPE geomembrane and a comprehensive leakage detection system was installed. The flow rate in the leakage detection system was monitored during the construction and commissioning of the RWD. The measured flow rate in the leakage detection system indicated that the liner had failed. Details are provided of the steps taken to identify the failure and to repair it.

Searching for Reactor Antineutrino Flavor Oscillations with the Double Chooz Far Detector
Creators: Franke, Arthur
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: Particles (Nuclear physics)

description: This dissertation presents results from a search for reactor antineutrinoₑ flavor oscillations using the Double Chooz Far Detector. The search was performed by observing the rate and energy spectrum of antineutrinoₑ interacting via Inverse Beta Decay in a Gd-doped liquid scintillator detector, and comparing the observation to an expectation based on a prediction of the emitted reactor flux. The Columbia University neutrino group was instrumental in construction of the Double Chooz Outer Veto, as well as the analysis efforts leading to two oscillation measurement results. The most recent analysis is presented herein, focusing on 251.27 days of data (or 33.71 GW-ton-years of exposure). In these data, 8249 IBD candidates were observed, compared to a signal+background prediction of 8936.8. A fit to a two-neutrino oscillation model considering event rate, spectral shape, and time yields a best-fit value of sin² (2θ₁₃) = 0.109 ± 0.030 (stat.) ± 0.025 (syst.) at Δm 2/31 = 2.32 × 10⁻³ eV², with χ²_RS/d.o.f. = 42.1/35. A frequentist method deems the null-oscillation hypothesis excluded by the data at 99.8% C.L., or 2.9σ. These results are in agreement with the measurements of other modern reactor antineutrinoₑ experiments.

description: Secondary sexual characters form a diverse group of traits widely spread in amphibians. Within anurans, the Hylini tribe represents an interesting group to examine the evolution of this type of characters because it has different skin structure modifications including ventrolateral glands, nuptial pads, and unique swollen upper lips. We analysed the skin gland composition in the upper lip of Plectrohyla guatemalensis and the ventrolateral gland of Ptychohyla hypomykter (Hylidae: Hylinae: Hylini). Each of these species is characterized by a different type of sexually dimorphic skin gland; specialized mucous glands (SMGs) in Pl. guatemalensis and specialized serous glands (SSGs) in Pt. hypomykter. The SMGs conform to the general type of sexually dimorphic skin glands in amphibians, whereas SSGs are very rare. Because SMGs are likely involved in the production of sexual pheromones, their distinctive location and their co-occurrence with other secondary sexual characters like long and pointed maxillary and premaxillary teeth in Pl. guatemalensis suggests that the system used for their delivery may be a distinguishing behavioral feature in this species. The presence of both types of glands in Pt. hypomykter (SMGs in nuptial pads, and SSGs in ventrolateral glands) suggests a different or, at least, a complementary role of these two types of glands during reproduction.

Filtered dry stacked tailings : the fundamentals
Creators: name: Davies, Michael
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Filtered tailings are becoming an increasingly common consideration for tailings management at many mines. There are more filtered dry stack tailings storage facilities than there are surface paste facilities yet the amount of guidance documentation on filtered tailings is virtually non-existent in compare to those same paste tailings facilities. The reason for this lack of guidance materials is uncertain but it has led to some unfortunate tailings management decisions based on misinformation about dry stacked tailings facilities in general. This paper provides practical guidelines for the design and development of filtered dry stack tailings facilities. These guidelines are based upon the successful conceptualization, design, and operating experience at a number of these facilities. Issues related to target moisture content, appropriate testing methods and criterion, geotechnical conditions and placement considerations are included. The guidelines include specific reference to “lessons learned” from existing operations that will benefit designers and owners alike.

description: In recent years, Susskind, Thorlacius and Uglum have proposed a model for strings near a black hole horizon in order to represent the quantum mechanical entropy of the black hole and to resolve the information loss problem. However, this model is insufficient because they did not consider the metric modification due to massive strings and did not explain how to carry information from inside of the horizon to the outside world. In this paper, we present a possible, intuitive model for the time development of a black hole in order to solve the information loss problem. In this model, we assume that a first order phase transition occurs near the Hagedorn temperature and the string gas changes to hypothetical matter with vanishing entropy and energy which we call `the Planck solid'. We also study the background geometry of black holes in this picture and find out that there is no singularity within the model.

description: Background: The study of low-energy neutrinos and their interactions with atomic nuclei is crucial to several open problems in physics, including the neutrino mass hierarchy, CP-violation, candidates of Beyond Standard Model physics and supernova dynamics. Examples of experiments include CAPTAIN at SNS as well as DUNE's planned detection program of supernova neutrinos. Purpose: We present cross section calculations for quasielastic charged current and neutral current neutrinos at low energies, with a focus on $^{40}$Ar. We also take a close look at pion decay-at-rest neutrino spectra, which are used in e.g. the SNS experiment at Oakridge. Method and results: We employ a Hartree Fock + Continuum Random Phase Approximations (HF+CRPA) framework, which allows us to model the responses and include the effects of long-range correlations. It is expected to provide a good framework to calculate forbidden transitions, whose contribution which we show to be non-negligible. Conclusions: Forbidden transitions can be expected to contribute sizeably to the reaction strength at typical low-energy kinematics, such as DAR neutrinos. Modeling and Monte Carlo simulations need to take all due care to account for the influence of their contributions.

description: The article focuses on the history of domestic trade in Lwów during the inter–war period. The author examined the state of trade in the town prior to the First World War by analysing the dynamic of the changing number of commercial enterprises in 1921–1939, and that of professionally active persons and independent employees involved in commerce.
Upon the basis of assorted statistical material the article explains the ethnic–religious structure of the traders as well as their specialisations. The author also analyzed the size of the enterprises in question and studied marketing methods applied by merchants for the purpose of developing their business ventures.
Finally, the analysis encompasses mutual relations of various groups of traders (i.a. the negative attitude towards Jewish merchants in the second half of the 1930s). The last part of the article outlines the policy pursued by the state and the local authorities towards traders

description: We reformulate the Eliashberg's equation for the superconducting transition within the quasi-particle description, which takes account of the heavy electron mass. We discuss the superconductivity of CeIr_{x}Co_{1-x}In_5 by using such a renormalized formula. On the basis of an effective two-dimensional Hubbard model which represents the most heavy quasi-two dimensional Fermi surface with f-character of CeIr_{x}Co_{1-x}In_5, both normal and anomalous self-energies are calculated up to third order with respect to the renormalized on-site repulsion U between quasi-particles. The superconducting transition temperature is obtained by solving the Eliashberg's equation. Reasonable transition temperatures are obtained for moderately large U. It is found that the momentum and frequency dependence of spin fluctuations given by RPA-like terms gives rise to the d-wave pairing state, while the vertex correction terms are important for obtaining reasonable transition temperatures and for differentiating n-dependence of T_c. These obtained results seem to explain the x-dependence of T_c in CeIr_{x}Co_{1-x}In_5 and confirm the usefulness of the perturbation theory with respect to U.

description: Fiddler crabs exhibit conspicuous claws used for social signaling, which may also function as a deflection mechanism by diverting predator attacks from vital body regions. To test this hypothesis, we used robotic models replicating the colors and waving display of Gelasimus vomeris, deploying them in the field to be attacked by Australian brush-turkeys (Alectura lathami). We analyzed whether attack direction varied with claw conspicuity. Our results show that models with conspicuous claws attracted significantly more attacks to the claw, while those with non-conspicuous claws were primarily attacked on the carapace. This suggests that claw coloration reduces predation risk by deflecting attacks away from vital areas. The dataset includes spectral reflectance measurements of models, 3D files for claw replication, and videos documenting both experimental and natural waving behaviors. This study provides the first evidence of a claw-deflection strategy in crustaceans.

description: Das Leben – aus dem Blickwinkel der Chemie betrachtet – besteht aus einem Kreislauf von organischen Kohlenstoffverbindungen, die von den Pflanzen aus anorganischem Kohlendioxid mit Hilfe der Energie des Sonnenlichts aufgebaut werden. Diese organischen Moleküle dienen als Nahrung für Mensch, Tier und Mikroorganismen und werden unter Energiefreisetzung wieder zu Kohlendioxid und Wasser abgebaut. Erstere Organismen nennt man autotroph, das heißt sich selbst ernährend. Letztere werden heterotroph genannt, da ihr Leben von der chemischen Arbeit anderer Lebewesen abhängt, d. h. sie ernähren sich von anderen. In diesem Beitrag soll die biologische Synthese von organischen Verbindungen aus anorganischem Kohlendioxid beleuchtet werden. Es zeigt sich, dass es Mikroorganismen sind, welche die wahren Lehrmeister für diesen zentralen Lebensprozess sind.

description: We postulate that physical states are equivalent under coordinate transformations. We then implement this equivalence principle first in the case of one-dimensional stationary systems showing that it leads to the quantum analogue of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation which in turn implies the Schroedinger equation. In this context the Planck constant plays the role of covariantizing parameter. The construction is deeply related to the GL(2,C)-symmetry of the second-order differential equation associated to the Legendre transformation which selects, in the case of the quantum analogue of the Hamiltonian characteristic function, self-dual states which guarantee its existence for any physical system. The universal nature of the self-dual states implies the Schroedinger equation in any dimension.

description: This is a study of two compilations that originated in western Iran before the Mongol conquest. The research contributes to the ongoing discussion of the organization and preservation of knowledge in literate societies. The Muḥāḍarāt al-udabā’ wa-muḥāwarāt al-shuʿarā' wa'l-bulaghā' (Conversations among Men of Letters and Debates between Men of Poetry and Rhetoric) is a major anthology of literary Arabic, ascribed to the lexicographer and philosopher Abū al-Qāsim al-Rāghib al-Iṣfahānī (d. before 1050?). The Rāḥat al-ṣudūr wa-āyat al-surūr (Comfort of Hearts and Wonder of Delights) is a Persian miscellany about the Great Seljuq sultanate that Muḥammad al-Rāwandī (d. after 1209), an obscure calligrapher and theologian, compiled in the first decade of the thirteenth century in Hamadan to petition the Rum Seljuq sultan Kay Khusrau (ruled 1192-1197 and 1205-1211) in Konya. Both works are single-subject encyclopedias, designed as comprehensive textbooks. The circulation of manuscripts and imprints provides a diachronic perspective on the diffusion of knowledge. These textbooks circulated largely between Isfahan and Istanbul. Rāghib’s anthology is a propaedeutic work for a general audience, and is still in print in contemporary Middle Eastern societies. In contrast, Rāwandī’s miscellany is a personalized curriculum of Great Seljuq politics and courtly etiquette, and thus became obsolete in the sixteenth century. The biographical data on their authors offer the complementary synchronic perspective on the geography of knowledge in pre-Mongol Iran. The contents of the Muḥāḍarāt and the Rāḥat illustrate how their authors utilized well-established conventions of transmitting knowledge to compile an anthology of literary Arabic and a miscellany about the Great Seljuq sultanate. The arrangement of their contents is the most original aspect of these textbooks. On the macro-level, the sequence of parts, chapters, and sections follows a principle of associative order of topics and disciplines. The textbooks are witnesses to societal dependence on literacy. The oral transmission of knowledge had lost its monopoly, yet writing was less a replacement than a supplement to the oral tradition. The contents and structure of the Muḥāḍarāt and the Rāḥat document the continued prestige and use of oral practices within a literate society.
title:  La Recherche en BD: Stéphane Heuet ri-scrive Proust
Creators: name: Masi  ,  Silvia

description: Il presente lavoro ha come oggetto di studio l’analisi dell’adattamento in fumetto di un capolavoro indiscutibile del panorama letterario francese, À la recherche du temps perdu di Marcel Proust. In particolare, si intende porre l’attenzione sul modo in cui quest’immensa opera sia stata interpretata ed in seguito trasposta, ricorrendo ad un supporto così variegato, moderno e flessibile come la bande dessinée. In più, ci si propone di indagare l’approccio adottato dal fumettista Stéphane Heuet, realizzatore della serie, rispetto ai temi, ai linguaggi e all’essenza del testo proustiano. Il suo ambizioso contributo artistico, la cui ricezione è stata alquanto controversa, ha permesso all’immensa Cattedrale del Tempo di riergersi incontrastata e di conoscere un nuovo impulso grazie ad un inedito formato dall’elevata densità narrativa e visiva.

Second-Order Network Development in India: Mobile Phone Users and the Indian Premier League
Creators: Agur, Colin
Publisher: name: Columbia University

description: This dissertation examines second order network formation on India's large and rapidly expanding mobile phone networks. It does so by examining a particular second order network - the Indian Premier League (IPL) mobile network. Using a case study approach and a mix of ethnographic methods and textual analysis, I explore the history that preceded the IPL mobile network, the intentions of its creators, the processes by which users participate on the network, and the outcomes of network expansion and evolution. I deploy the space of flows concept of Manuel Castells, to draw attention to continuity and change in Indian communication networks, and to highlight the new spatial dynamics at work in mass mobile telephony. This dissertation emphasizes the transformative nature of second order networks and identifies the ways that masses of users can disrupt and alter communication networks, especially in contexts of informal economics and power structures.
Permutations containing and avoiding certain patterns

description: Let T_k^m={σ\in S_k | σ_1=m}. We prove that the number of permutations which avoid all patterns in T_k^m equals (k-2)!(k-1)^{n+1-k} for k <= n. We then prove that for any τin T_k^1 (or any τin T_k^k), the number of permutations which avoid all patterns in T_k^1 (or in T_k^k) except for τand contain τexactly once equals (n+1-k)(k-1)^{n-k} for k <= n. Finally, for any τin T_k^m, 2 <= m <= k-1, this number equals (k-1)^{n-k} for k <= n. These results generalize recent results due to Robertson concerning permutations avoiding 123-pattern and containing 132-pattern exactly once.

Second Nature and Ethical Life: Habit, Culture, and Critique in Hegel's Science of Right
Creators: Novakovic, Andreja
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Philosophy
subject: FOS: Philosophy, ethics and religion

description: This dissertation investigates the status of reflection in Hegel's account of modern ethical life. I ask, on the one hand, why Hegel places so much significance on unreflective attitudes, and on the other, which forms of reflection remain compatible with what he calls the habit of the ethical. This question exposes crucial commitments underlying Hegel's project in the Philosophy of Right and interrogates the flexibility of his account and its openness to normative change. Yet my inquiry also has broader implications for the nature of social criticism. I argue that even reflection of the overtly critical variety emerges from and remains indebted to our habitual comportment and that this is why it must retain a valued place in ethical life.

Year: 2021

description: Il verso di La Fontaine, tratto da Contre ceux qui ont le goût difficile del 1668, è incluso come esergo nel frontespizio e ripetuto come motto ispiratore nella prefazione del secondo volume, francese-inglese, del Royal Phraseological English-French, French-English Dictionary, pubblicato nel 1849, quattro anni dopo il primo volume, inglese-francese. John Charles Tarver, l’autore del dizionario, docente di francese a Eton fin dal 1826, ne ha fatto un’opera innovativa nel panorama della lessicografia inglese-francese dell’epoca, basandosi sulla sua lunga esperienza didattica, sulla padronanza di entrambe le lingue e relative culture e, in particolare, sul riconoscimento del ruolo fondante della fraseologia nell’apprendimento e nell’uso effettivo di una lingua straniera. Al fine di mostrare la rilevanza del dizionario all’epoca e il suo ruolo innovativo, il contributo illustrerà il contesto in cui fu prodotto e analizzerà i tratti salienti delle combinazioni fraseologiche che ne costituiscono l’essenza e la loro modalità di presentazione in voci selezionate da entrambi i volumi.

Theory of Two-Dimensional Josephson Arrays in a Resonant Cavity
Creators: name: Almaas, E.
name: Stroud, D.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider the dynamics of a two-dimensional array of underdamped Josephson junctions placed in a single-mode resonant cavity. Starting from a well-defined model Hamiltonian, which includes the effects of driving current and dissipative coupling to a heat bath, we write down the Heisenberg equations of motion for the variables of the Josephson junction and the cavity mode, extending our previous one-dimensional model. In the limit of large numbers of photons, these equations can be expressed as coupled differential equations and can be solved numerically. The numerical results show many features similar to experiment. These include (i) self-induced resonant steps (SIRS's) at voltages V = (n hbar Omega)/(2e), where Omega is the cavity frequency, and n is generally an integer; (ii) a threshold number N_c of active rows of junctions above which the array is coherent; and (iii) a time-averaged cavity energy which is quadratic in the number of active junctions, when the array is above threshold. Some differences between the observed and calculated threshold behavior are also observed in the simulations and discussed. In two dimensions, we find a conspicuous polarization effect: if the cavity mode is polarized perpendicular to the direction of current injection in a square array, it does not couple to the array and there is no power radiated into the cavity. We speculate that the perpendicular polarization would couple to the array, in the presence of magnetic-field-induced frustration. Finally, when the array is biased on a SIRS, then, for given junction parameters, the power radiated into the array is found to vary as the square of the number of active junctions, consistent with expectations for a coherent radiation.

Sectarian Homes: The Making of Shi'i Families and Citizens under the French Mandate, 1918-1943
Creators: Sayed, Linda
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2013
Subjects: History

description: My dissertation focuses on the legal recognition of the Shi'i sect by the Mandate state as a pivotal point in generating increased sectarian awareness, particularly as it related to the domain of the family. I analyze the impact this had on the space of the family during the French Mandate and the creation of the new Lebanese nation-state from 1918-1943 as growing concerns to reform Shi'i families emerged. I explore how the family became intertwined in the system of sectarianism and became vital to the understanding of Shi'as as a Lebanese sect. This study examines three sites, the Shi'i press, Ja'fari shari'a courts, and Shi'i educational institutions, in order to reveal how familial and gendered relationships were defined, performed, and constructed during this period. All three sites represent different forms of producing Shi'i families and gender relationships. By exposing the differences in these spaces, I disclose how multiple notions of masculinity and femininity were deployed in the formation of the Shi'as as a collective entity and citizens of the nation-state. By concentrating on the locus of the family, my dissertation highlights how marital and gender roles became intertwined in sectarian and national categories of practices for the Shi'i Muslims of Lebanon. This study seeks to place the family space and everyday experiences of Shi'i Muslims in the understandings and articulations of sectarian and nationalist concepts of identity. The multiple productions of Shi'i families in the press, Ja'fari shari'a court records, and Shi'i educational institutions reveal how fluid and mutable gendered, sectarian, and national modes of identification were during this period

PD pumps, the modern solution for pumping high density tailings

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Hydraulic transport of solids is common in mining and processing. Mineral slurry pipelines transport products in an environmentally acceptable and economically efficient manner over long distances ranging from a few kilometres to several hundred kilometres. The first piston diaphragm pumps were introduced for pipeline service in the early 70’s for mineral ore transport applications such as OEMK in Russia and New Zealand Steel. For three decades, piston diaphragm pumps have enjoyed an ever-increasing popularity as a reliable, economic and environmentally friendly method to transport slurries. The technology has now matured into the industry standard pump technology for high pressure slurry pumping, backed up by the many successful installations world-wide. From a disposal viewpoint it is no longer environmentally and economically acceptable to transport waste materials at low concentrations to large tailing ponds. Thickened tailings disposal systems and slope filling procedures are now actively sought and require much higher concentrations to be transported than can be delivered by conventional pipelines. Pumping systems for high concentration, fine particle suspension (paste) pipelines require different design than pumping systems for traditional slurry pipelines. Due to the required increase in solids concentration and transport distance, piston diaphragm pumps have gained a substantial interest for thickened tailings applications. However larges flows have occasionally required an impractically large number of piston diaphragm pumps. The development of the patented GLORES system (Geho LOad REduction System) has enabled the design of a triplex piston diaphragm pump with an unprecedented power rating of approximately 2800 kW allowing large flows. This development had enabled a tailings system design with an acceptably, small number of pumps. The development of the largest pump diaphragm in the world and the use of numerical tools for the analysis of dynamic phenomena within the pump enabled a reliable pump design for the increased flow rate from a hydraulic perspective as well.
