description: Based on density functional theory the influence of curvature on the depletion potential of a single big hard sphere immersed in a fluid of small hard spheres with packing fraction η_s either inside or outside of a hard spherical cavity of radius R_c is calculated. The relevant features of this potential are analyzed as function of η_s and R_c. There is a very slow convergence towards the flat wall limit R_c \to \infty. Our results allow us to discuss the strength of depletion forces acting near membranes both in normal and lateral directions and to make contact with recent experimental results.

Domain Knowledge Infusion in Machine Learning for Digital Signal Processing Applications : An in-depth case study on table tennis stroke recognition

Year: 2021

description: Diese Arbeit untersucht die Infusion von Domänenwissen als eine Möglichkeit zur Optimierung von Anwendungen des maschinellen Lernens in der Signalverarbeitung. Als Anwendungsbeispiel wird die Erkennung von Tischtennisschlägen anhand von Signalen detailliert analysiert. Die Signale stammen von Sensoren, die in einer am Handgelenk getragenen Smartwatch integriert sind. Domänenwissen wird auf verschiedenen Abstraktionsebenen verwendet, um die Schlagerkennung und -klassifikation zu verbessern. Diese reichen von der Wahl und Fusion tischtennisrelevanter Sensoren, über Low-Level-Signalkorrekturen, bis hin zu Zustandsautomaten, die basierend auf dem Wissen über gültige Schlagsequenzen eine Selbstkorrektur von Fehlklassifikationen ermöglichen. Die Evaluation des LSTMbasierten Prototyps zeigt, dass er erfolgreich zwischen Spiel/kein Spiel, Schlag/kein Schlag, und acht Schlagarten (Vorhand/Rückhand Konter, Topspin, Block, Unterschnitt) unterscheiden kann, sowie Metriken zukünftiger Schläge zur Analyse des Spielstils basierend auf vergangenen Schlägen vorhersagen kann. Das System wurde basierend auf 3770 Schlägen von zwei langjährigen Tischtennisspielern entwickelt und validiert. Die Daten wurden in einer kontrollierten Umgebung unter Zuhilfenahme eines Tischtennisroboters gesammelt, der Bälle präzise servieren kann.

description: We study the effect of long-range elastic interactions in the dynamical behavior of an elastic chain driven quasi-statically in a quenched random pinning potential and in the strong pinning limit. This is a generic situation occuring in solid friction, crack propagation, wetting front motion, ... Tuning the exponent of the algebraic decay of the elastic interaction with the distance is shown to give rise to three regimes: a Mean-Field (MF) regime, a Laplacian (L) regime and an intermediate regime where the critical exponents interpolate continuously between the MF and L limit cases. The effect of the driving mode on the avalanche statistics is also analyzed.

A relativistic calculation of super-Hubble suppression of inflation with thermal dissipation

description: We investigated the evolution of the primordial density perturbations produced by inflation with thermal dissipation. A full relativistic analysis on the evolution of initial perturbations from the warm inflation era to a radiation-dominated universe has been developed. The emphasis is on tracking the ratio between the adiabatic and the isocurvature mode of the initial perturbations. This result is employed to calculate a testable factor: the super-Hubble suppression of the power spectrum of the primordial perturbations. We show that based on the warm inflation scenario, the super-Hubble suppression factor, $s$, for an inflation with thermal dissipation is at least 0.5. This prediction does not depend on the details of the model parameters. If $s$ is larger than 0.5, it implies that the friction parameter $Γ$ is larger than the Hubble expansion parameter $H$ during the inflation era.

description: We investigate the application of the Adaptive Multilevel Splitting algorithm for the estimation of tail probabilities of solutions of Stochastic Differential Equations evaluated at a given time, and of associated temporal averages. We introduce a new, very general and effective family of score functions which is designed for these problems. We illustrate its behavior on a series of numerical experiments. In particular, we demonstrate how it can be used to estimate large deviation rate functionals for the longtime limit of temporal averages.
Optimal local discrimination of two multipartite pure states

description: In a recent paper, Walgate et. al. demonstrated that any two orthogonal multipartite pure states can be optimally distinguished using only local operations. We utilise their result to show that this is true for any two multiparty pure states, in the sense of inconclusive discrimination. There are also certain regimes of conclusive discrimination for which the same also applies, although we can only conjecture that the result is true for all conclusive regimes. We also discuss a class of states that can be distinguished locally according to any discrimination measure, as they can be locally recreated in the hands of one party. A consequence of this is that any two maximally entangled states can always be optimally discriminated locally, according to any figure of merit.

Για την πραγματοποίηση του σκοπού αυτού, αξιοποιήθηκαν οι μεθοδολογίες της Εργονομικής Ανάλυσης Εργασίας. Έτσι, μετά το εισαγωγικό κεφάλαιο, όπου ο αναγνώστης πληροφορείται επιγραμματικά για το σύστημα συντήρησης στον Ελληνικό Στρατό και για τον υπό μελέτη κινητήρα, παρατίθεται το 2ο κεφάλαιο, όπου εκτίθεται η λεγόμενη παρατήρηση των εργασιών. Η παρατήρηση είναι το βασικότερο και απολύτως απαραίτητο εργαλείο για την ανάλυση της εργασίας. Καταγράφονται αναλυτικά όλες οι εργασίες που παρατηρήθηκαν και σημειώνονται εμβόλιμα κάποιες σημαντικές παρατηρήσεις και συμπεράσματα, που αφορούν σε συγκεκριμένες εργασίες. Επιπλέον, στο τέλος κάθε ενότητας βρίσκεται μία παράγραφος με σημαντικά συμπεράσματα και επισημάνσεις που αφορούν ένα σύνολο εργασιών. Συνοπτικά, στο κεφάλαιο αυτό πρώτα αποτυπώνονται σε περιγραφική γλώσσα όλες οι εργασίες που εκτελούνται και σκοπό έχουν την ανακατασκευή του συγκεκριμένου κινητήρα, και στη συνέχεια αναλύονται οι εργασίες αυτές. Το 3ο κεφάλαιο αναλαμβάνει να προσδώσει στην εκτενή γνώση του 2ου κεφαλαίου μία κωδικοποιημένη μορφή. Το έργο αυτό φέρουν σε πέρας αφενός το Blow up για τα μηχανολογικά μέρη του κινητήρα, και αφετέρου τα διαγράμματα IDEF0 για τις εργασίες της ανακατασκευής. Το 4ο κεφάλαιο αξιοποιεί την κωδικοποιημένη γνώση του 3ου κεφαλαίου και κάποια κριτήρια για να διατυπώσει διαδικασίες και φύλλα οδηγιών εργασίας. Το 5ο κεφάλαιο περιορίζεται στο να παραθέσει κάποιες προτάσεις για την βελτιστοποίηση της παραγωγικής διαδικασίας αλλά και για την αξιοποίηση της Διπλωματικής Εργασίας.
description: The purpose of this thesis is to develop procedures for overhauling the engine of the Mercedes 240 GD vehicle. In order to achieve the purpose, the method of task analysis was applied. After the introduction, where someone is informed about the maintenance and repairing system in the Hellenic Army, the 2nd chapter exposes the observation of all the tasks. At the end of the chapter, a paragraph analyses the collected data. An attempt to encode all the collected data, lies at the 3rd chapter. The 4th chapter contains the procedures and the worksheets. Finally, at the 5th chapter, suggestions are made to improve the overhauling procedure.

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: The linear response conductance coefficients are calculated in the scattering approach at finite frequency, damping and magnetic field for a microstructure in which the reservoirs are modeled as quantum wire leads of infinite length but finite width. Independently of frequency, inelastic scattering causes subbands with large group velocity to contribute more strongly to the conductance than channels of comparable transmission but slower propagation. At finite frequency and magnetic fields, additional correction terms appear, some of which are sensitive to the phase of the S matrix.

description: The problem of time and the quantization of three dimensional gravity in the strong coupling regime is studied following path integral methods. The time is identified with the volume of spacetime. We show that the effective action describes an infinite set of massless relativistic particles moving in a curved three-dimensional target space, i.e. a tensionless 3-brane on a curved background. If the cosmological constant is zero the target space is flat and there is no ` ` graviton" propagation (i.e., $G[g_{ij} (2), g_{ij} (1)] = 0$). If the cosmological constant is different from zero, 3D gravity is both classical and quantum mechanically soluble. Indeed, we find the following results: i) The general exact solutions of the Einstein equations are singular at $t=0$ showing the existence of a big-bang in this regime and ii) the propagation amplitude between two geometries $$ vanishes as $t \to 0$, suggesting that big-bang is suppressed quantum mechanically. This result is also valid for $D>3$.

description: Abstract

Pipeline maintenance is an important process for increasing the useful life of the various structures used to transport fluids, reducing leaks and improving pipeline operation. In this work we have used numerical optimisation to determine the main factors affecting the repair of cracks in pipeline structures. We studied the most important environmental factors present around pipelines, such as humidity and the thickness of the patch used to maintain the pipeline structures.

description: By combining scanning probe microscopy with Raman and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, we investigate the evolution of CVD-grown graphene/Ge(001) as a function of the deposition temperature in close proximity to the Ge melting point, highlighting an abrupt change of the graphene's quality, morphology, electronic properties and growth mode at 930 degrees. We attribute this discontinuity to the incomplete surface melting of the Ge substrate and show how incomplete melting explains a variety of diverse and long-debated peculiar features of the graphene/Ge(001), including the characteristic nanostructuring of the Ge substrate induced by graphene overgrowth. We find that the quasi-liquid Ge layer formed close to 930 degrees is fundamental to obtain high-quality graphene, while a temperature decrease of 10 degrees already results in a wrinkled and defective graphene film.

description: Opto-mechanical oscillators that generate coherent acoustic waves are drawing much interest, in both fundamental research and applications. Narrowband oscillations can be obtained through the introduction of feedback to the acoustic wave. Most previous realizations of this concept, sometimes referred to as "phonon lasers", relied on radiation pressure and moving boundary effects in micro- or nano-structured media. Demonstrations in bulk crystals required cryogenic temperatures. In this work, stimulated emission of highly-coherent acoustic waves is achieved in a commercially-available multi-core fiber, at room temperature. The fiber is connected within an opto-electronic cavity loop. Pump light in one core is driving acoustic waves via electrostriction, whereas an optical probe wave at a different physical core undergoes photo-elastic modulation by the stimulated acoustic waves. Coupling between pump and probe is based entirely on inter-core, opto-mechanical cross-phase modulation: no direct optical feedback is provided. Single-frequency mechanical oscillations at hundreds of MHz frequencies are obtained, with side-mode suppression that is better than 55 dB. A sharp threshold and rapid collapse of the linewidth above threshold are observed. The linewidths of the acoustic oscillations are on the order of 100 Hz, orders of magnitude narrower than those of the pump and probe light sources. The relative Allan's deviation of the frequency is between 0.1-1 ppm. The frequency may be switched among several values by propagating the pump or probe waves in different cores. The results may be used in sensing, metrology and microwave-photonic information processing applications.

description: An exchange-correlation energy functional beyond the local density approximation, based on the exchange-correlation kernel of the homogeneous electron gas and originally introduced by Kohn and Sham, is considered for electronic structure calculations of semiconductors and atoms. Calculations are carried out for diamond, silicon, silicon carbide and gallium arsenide. The lattice constants and gaps show a small improvement with respect to the LDA results. However, the corresponding corrections to the total energy of the isolated atoms are not large enough to yield a substantial improvement for the cohesive energy of solids, which remains hence overestimated as in the LDA.

description: Η διπλωματική μου εργασία έχει σαν στόχο την μελέτη και ανάλυση της θεωρίας των “Τετραγωνικών Υπολοίπων” και των “Συνεχών Κλασμάτων”, δύο πολύ βασικών κλάδων της θεωρίας αριθμών, που έχουν εφαρμογή στην Κρυπτογραφία. Στο πρώτο κεφάλαιο γίνεται μια εισαγωγή στην θεωρία αριθμών. Μελετάται η έννοια της διαιρετότητας, αποδεικνύεται η απειρία των πρώτων και το θεμελιώδες θεώρημα της αριθμητικής. Ακόμα, ορίζεται η ισοδυναμία μεταξύ δύο αριθμών και στο τέλος του κεφαλαίου αποδεικνύονται τα θεωρήματα Euler και Fermat. Στο δεύτερο κεφάλαιο μελετάμε τα τετραγωνικά υπόλοιπα ενός αριθμού. Στην αρχή αποδεικνύουμε ιδιότητες των τετραγωνικών υπολοίπων περιττών πρώτων, εισάγουμε το σύμβολο του Legendre και διατυπώνουμε το κριτήριο Euler. Στην συνέχεια αποδεικνύουμε ένα από τα πιο βασικά θεωρήματα στην θεωρία αριθμών, τον “Νόμο της τετραγωνικής αντιστροφής”. Τελειώνοντας το κεφάλαιο επεκτείνουμε το σύμβολο Legendre στο σύμβολο Jacobi και κλείνουμε το κεφάλαιο με έναν αλγόριθμο που υπολογίζει το σύμβολο Jacobi. Στο τρίτο κεφάλαιο ενδιαφερόμαστε να βρούμε με αποδοτικό τρόπο τις τετραγωνικές ρίζες των τετραγωνικών υπολοίπων. Παραθέτουμε τους κλειστούς τύπους που υπάρχουν για τους πρώτους που αφήνουν υπόλοιπο 3 και 5 στην διαίρεση με το 4 και το 8 αντίστοιχα. Έπειτα παραθέτουμε τον αλγόριθμο των Tonelli και Shanks και τέλος αναπτύσουμε τον αλγόριθμο του Cornacchia. Στο τέταρτο και τελευταίο κεφάλαιο κάνουμε μια εισαγωγή στα συνεχή κλάσματα. Στην αρχή τα ορίζουμε και μελετάμε τις ιδιότητες των συγκλίνοντών τους. Ύστερα δείχνουμε ότι κάθε πραγματικός αριθμός μπορεί να αναπαρασταθεί μοναδικά από ένα συνεχές κλάσμα και κλείνουμε το κεφάλαιο αποδεικνύοντας ότι τα συνεχή κλάσματα αποτελούν την καλύτερη προσέγγιση ενός πραγματικού αριθμού.

description: The high mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) provide an exciting framework to investigate the evolution of massive stars and the processes behind binary evolution. HMXBs have shown to be good tracers of recent star formation in galaxies and might be important feedback sources at early stages of the Universe. Furthermore, HMXBs are likely the progenitors of gravitational wave sources (BH--BH or BH--NS binaries that may merge producing gravitational waves). In this work, we investigate the nature and properties of HMXB population in star-forming galaxies. We combine the results from the population synthesis model MOBSE (Giacobbo et al. 2018) together with galaxy catalogs from EAGLE simulation (Schaye et al. 2015). Therefore, this method describes the HMXBs within their host galaxies in a self-consistent way. We compute the X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of HMXBs in star-forming galaxies, showing that this methodology matches the main features of the observed XLF.

description: We developed a high-performance ELISA assay and measured serum BHMT levels in healthy individuals and patients with acute liver injury (ALI). The detection range of this ELISA assay was from 1.56 to 100 ng/ml. BHMT levels are significantly higher in ALI groups. In the healthy group (n = 244), the median value (interquartile range, IQR 0–56.40) was 1.83 ng/ml. In the ALI group (n = 42), the median value of BHMT was 748.48 ng/ml (IQR, 0–51095.92). ROC curve analysis demonstrated good sensitivity (0.86) and specificity (0.98). In addition, in five ALI cases with time course samples available, BHMT and ALT both followed the “rise and fall” temporal pattern with the disease progression. However, the slopes of BHMT curves were steeper than ALT curves. And in three out of the five cases, BHMT levels peaked 1 day earlier than ALT levels be a sensitive marker with good prognostic value.

description: Integrals of the Pfaffian form over the nonsingular part of a projective variety compute information closely related to the Mather-Chern class of the variety and to other invariants such as the local Euler obstruction along strata of its singular locus and, in the hypersurface case, Milnor numbers. We obtain simple proofs of these formulas, recovering along the way several classically known results.
Conditional large Fock state preparation and field state reconstruction in Cavity QED

description: We propose a scheme for producing large Fock states in Cavity QED via the implementation of a highly selective atom-field interaction. It is based on Raman excitation of a three-level atom by a classical field and a quantized field mode. Selectivity appears when one tunes to resonance a specific transition inside a chosen atom-field subspace, while other transitions remain dispersive, as a consequence of the field dependent electronic energy shifts. We show that this scheme can be also employed for reconstructing, in a new and efficient way, the Wigner function of the cavity field state.

description: We present thermodynamic measurements of various physical observables of the two dimensional S=1/2 isotropic quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice, obtained by quantum Monte Carlo. In particular we have been able to measure the infinite volume limit of the uniform susceptibility up to the inverse temperature beta=40, the analysis of which reveals the correct asymptotic behavior in excellent agreement with the prediction of chiral perturbation theory. The controversy over the existence of a crossover from quantum critical to renormalized classical regime is resolved.

description: This quality improvement initiative aimed to enhance the documentation of shared decision-making (SDM) in a faculty nurse-midwifery practice through the implementation of a standardized template. Over three Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles, midwives reported greater satisfaction (p = 0.035) and efficiency (p = 0.008) with the structured template compared to prior documentation methods, as well as improved ability to track SDM conversations over time (p = 0.003). While adoption varied, the findings highlight the potential for standardized SDM documentation to improve continuity of care without increasing workload, though better EHR integration, training, and workflow alignment may enhance usability and consistency.

description: Cette revue de la littérature sur les pneumopathies acquises sous ventilation artificielle en néonatologie montre que leur incidence a bien diminué dans les pays développés. Ce progrès est sans doute lié aux mesures d’hygiène et de prévention mises en place, mais également à une évolution de la prise en charge respiratoire du nouveau-né. En effet on tend à des périodes de ventilation invasive de plus en plus courtes chez le nouveau-né, au profit de techniques de ventilation non invasives, moins pourvoyeuses de complications infectieuses. Il n’est pas toujours facile de distinguer une surinfection pulmonaire liée à la ventilation de complications pulmonaires non infectieuses liées à l’agression du poumon par la ventilation mécanique. Cela est particulièrement vrai pour l’extrême prématuré. La plupart des équipes utilisent la définition de la pneumopathie acquise sous ventilation artificielle proposée par les Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, même si elle ne permet pas de résoudre complètement ce dilemme. Sur une population très fragile, la spécificité du diagnostic doit parfois s’effacer au profit d’une approche plus pragmatique car des prélèvements invasifs ou un retard de mise en route du traitement peuvent avoir de lourdes conséquences. Le prix à payer est sans doute une antibiothérapie à spectre trop large ou abusive, avec le développement de résistances bactériennes. Chaque équipe devrait connaître son taux de pneumopathies acquises sous ventilation mécanique et ainsi adapter les mesures de prévention à appliquer.
