description: This paper deals with the spectral ageing study of a representative sample of compact symmetric objects (CSOs) and compact steep spectrum (CSS) sources. Observations reveal a distinctive high-frequency steepening of the radio spectra of many of these sources. The existence of such a spectral feature is expected or may be naturally interpreted in terms of radiative ageing of synchrotron emitting electrons. The small angular size of CSS sources makes it relatively easy to measure their integrated spectra over a wide frequency range for a conspicuous number of objects. For those sources whose emission is dominated by the mini-lobes, the integrated spectra can be used to constrain the source age. Assuming equipartition magnetic fields, the spectral ages we found are in the range from 10^2 to 10^5 yr. Multifrequency VLBA observations allow us to study the spectral properties of two CSOs: B1323+321 and B1943+546. The case of B1943+546 is particularly interesting since for this source a kinematic age has been derived from the proper motion of the hot spots. We found that spectral and kinematic ages agree within a factor of 2. The overall results presented here confirm that the CSOs and CSS sources are indeed young objects. Finally, we show some examples of compact sources characterised by an extraordinary steep and curved spectrum. It is plausible that these are relic sources in which the injection of fresh electrons has ceased for a significant fraction of their lifetime. These observations may indicate either the presence of intermittent activity or a class of short-living objects.

description: Au cours des vingt dernières années, de nombreuses recherches ont été menées dans le monde pour développer des technologies de réfrigération magnétocalorique prometteuses car plus efficaces et sans émissions de GES. Elles ont permis de bien comprendre les mécanismes de l’effet magnétocalorique (EMC) présentés par de nombreux matériaux, de fabriquer de nouveaux alliages susceptibles d’une utilisation massive pour la réfrigération et la climatisation au cours des prochaines années. Cependant, certains verrous scientifiques et techniques doivent encore être levés avant d’aboutir à des dispositifs magnétocaloriques suffisamment performants pour atteindre le stade industriel et devenir concurrentiels vis-à-vis des technologies classiques de réfrigération à compression de vapeur. Après une synthèse des récents progrès dans l’élaboration des matériaux et la mise au point de prototypes magnétocaloriques, cet article présente les défis scientifiques propres à ces machines et leurs solutions possibles. Il décrit les travaux menés au Dpt Énergie de l’Institut FEMTO-ST pour optimiser la conception des régénérateurs magnétocaloriques au cœur de ces machines. Un de ces axes de recherche porte sur l’intensification des échanges thermiques entre les plaques de matériaux des régénérateurs magnétocaloriques et l’écoulement alterné, à des fréquences plus élevées que celles habituellement utilisées dans les dispositifs actuels. Les calculs analytiques montrent que qu’elle se produit au-delà d’un seuil critique $Re_{\omega c}$ du nombre adimensionnel de Womersley, caractérisant l’apparition de l’effet annulaire induit dans ces écoulements. L’utilisation de régénérateurs magnétocaloriques multicouches à matériaux étagés de températures de Curie croissantes est un autre axe de recherche dont les simulations numériques démontrent l’augmentation de l’écart de température produit aux extrémités lors des cycles actifs de réfrigération magnétique. D’autres travaux en cours (microstructuration, composites) peuvent conduire aux ruptures technologiques recherchées permettant atteindre l’efficacité et les baisses de coûts indispensables à la commercialisation des futures machines magnétocaloriques.

description: La consommation d'énergie dans le monde augmente très rapidement et représente environ 35 \% dans le secteur résidentiel. Les stratégies mondiales ont prévu de réduire la consommation d'énergie dans le bâtiment afin de lutter contre le réchauffement climatique. Pour cela, il est possible d'utiliser des échangeurs de chaleur air-sol (EAHE) basés sur des énergies renouvelables. L'EAHE est un système de chauffage, de ventilation et de climatisation qui utilise l'air extérieur pour circuler dans des tubes souterrains afin de récupérer l'énergie du sol. Cette énergie permet de préchauffer ou refroidir l'air dans le bâtiment par ventilation. De plus, l'ajout d'une ventilation à récupération de chaleur (HRV) améliore la performance du système en récupérant l'énergie de l'air vicié. Cependant, le système nécessite de l'énergie auxiliaire pour satisfaire les besoins énergétiques globaux. Ce système énergétique EAHE/HRV peut également être couplé à une pompe à chaleur (HP) et à des collecteurs photovoltaïques (PV) afin de combler les besoins de chauffage en hiver et de refroidissement en été. En outre, des capteurs solaires thermiques peuvent être couplés à système de stockage d'eau chaude pour satisfaire la demande d'eau chaude sanitaire. Dans cette étude, le système énergétique est modélisé dynamiquement sur une année complète en utilisant des modèles d'un échangeur de chaleur air-sol, d'une ventilation à récupération de chaleur, d'une pompe à chaleur, des collecteurs photovoltaïques et thermiques, et d'un stockage d'eau chaude sanitaire. Pour étudier les performances énergétiques du système, deux critères énergétiques et un critère économique sont considérés. L'objectif principal est de déterminer le dimensionnement et la régulation optimale du système en utilisant une procédure d'optimisation. Celle-ci est composée d'une analyse de sensibilité, d'une optimisation multicritère et d'une aide à la décision. Tout d'abord, l'analyse de sensibilité est réalisée avec la méthode FAST et permet de sélectionner les paramètres les plus influents. Puis, une étude d'optimisation multicritère est effectuée avec les algorithmes génétiques pour déterminer les meilleurs compromis. Ensuite, la méthode d'aide à la décision TOPSIS sélectionne le dimensionnement et la régulation optimale. Enfin, cette procédure d'optimisation est appliquée pour différents climats liés à plusieurs capitales mondiales. Les résultats montrent que la combinaison des différents composants permet d'obtenir un système énergétique rentable et performant qui satisfait les demandes de chaleur, de rafraichissement et d'eau chaude sanitaire.

description: Les problématiques liées à la liaison pantographe-caténaire, c'est à dire le contact entre le train et les fils conducteurs l'alimentant, sont aujourd'hui encore nombreuses. Ainsi on constate une usure prématurée du fil et de la bande de captage liée à l'échauffement au point de contact. La caractérisation du vieillissement des matériaux d'une liaison pantographe-caténaire, l'anticipation des travaux de maintenance ou la prévention de casse sont difficiles à prendre en compte. Afin d'éviter tout risque de casse une maintenance accrue doit être mise en place. Un outil de simulation permettant de prédire la distribution de température dans une bande de captage a été récemment élaboré. Pour alimenter celui-ci, de nombreux paramètres d'entrée sont encore nécessaires. Étant électrifié, imparfait et glissant, ceux relatifs au contact sont difficiles à évaluer et à considérer. Il s'agit essentiellement des résistances de contact électrique et thermique , du coefficient de partage de flux thermique, du glissement magnétique, du coefficient de frottement. Pour répondre à ces besoins, un banc d'essais reproduisant un contact entre un pantographe et une caténaire est réalisé. Pour cela, un courant électrique important (50-150~A) passe dans un échantillon de bande de captage en contact avec un disque de cuivre en rotation. Le banc d'essais est ainsi conçu pour être représentatif d'une liaison pantographe-caténaire réelle mais aussi modulable et flexible en termes de densité de courant au niveau de la liaison, de type de matériaux au contact ou d'effort appliqué entre les deux structures. Dans cet article, la configuration d'une liaison pantographe caténaire est expliquée. Les facteurs influençant l'échauffement et l'usure de la bande de captage sont énuméré. L'ensemble du banc d'essai est ensuite décrit et sa représentativité critiquée. Les outils et techniques de pilotages, d'instrumentations et de mesures (résistivité thermique et électrique, coefficient de frottement) sont explicités. Enfin, Les perspectives à court et moyen termes sont abordées suivies d'une conclusion et de perspectives à court et moyen termes.

description: Noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices offer unique platforms to test and evaluate the behavior of non-fault-tolerant quantum computing. However, validating programs on NISQ devices is difficult due to fluctuations in the underlying noise sources and other non-reproducible behaviors that generate computational errors. Efficient and effective methods for modeling NISQ behaviors are necessary to debug these devices and develop programming techniques that mitigate against errors. We present a test-driven approach to characterizing NISQ programs that manages the complexity of noisy circuit modeling by decomposing an application-specific circuit into a series of bootstrapped experiments. By characterizing individual subcircuits, we generate a composite model for the original noisy quantum circuit as well as other related programs. We demonstrate this approach using a family of superconducting transmon devices running applications of GHZ-state preparation and the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm. We measure the model accuracy using the total variation distance between predicted and experimental results, and we find that the composite model works well across multiple circuit instances. In addition, these characterizations are computationally efficient and offer a trade-off in model complexity that can be tailored to the desired predictive accuracy.

description: We analyze empirically the drivers of grain option-implied volatilities (IVs). Forward-looking uncertainty and risk aversion in equity market (jointly captured by the VIX) and the state of commodity inventories (proxied by the net cost of carry for each grain) have significant impacts on forward-looking volatility in the three largest U.S. agricultural markets: corn, soybeans, and wheat. We also find some evidence that financial speculation has an immediate but short-lived negative impact on grain Ivs.

description: Les matériaux composites sont aujourd'hui incontournables dans de nombreux domaines en raison de leurs caractéristiques techniques (légèreté, solidité, rigidité) et de la réduction des coûts de production. Ces matériaux ont permis l'émergence des drones civils et militaires qui représentent une nouvelle menace. L'utilisation de la technologie laser permet d'appliquer des contraintes thermiques au niveau de certaines zones afin d'engendrer des dégradations thermomécaniques critiques pour le système en vol. L'objectif de cette étude est de mieux comprendre la propagation d'un flux lumineux au sein d'un matériau composite semi-transparent diffusant en fonction de la température. Ces dernières années, de nombreuses études ont porté sur les transferts radiatifs en milieux semi-transparents diffusants. L'équation de transfert radiatif (ETR) est conventionnellement utilisée pour modéliser la propagation du rayonnement. Dans la plupart de ces travaux, les frontières des matériaux sont traitées comme transparentes ou lisses. Une des difficultés sur l'étude du transfert radiatif au sein des milieux composites concerne la présence des frontières rugueuses provenant du procédé d'élaboration. Ces frontières rugueuses sont difficiles à appréhender du point de vue théorique et leurs présences affectent les mesures. Une meilleure connaissance des propriétés radiatives volumétriques (coefficient d'absorption, coefficient de diffusion et fonction de phase) et surfaciques (réflectivités et transmittivités aux interfaces) est indispensable. L'approche expérimentale permet de retrouver ces propriétés radiatives grâce à un dispositif de mesure adapté et à la maitrise de la température de l'échantillon. Le présent travail fait suite aux travaux présentés en 2019. Il se focalise sur l'identification simultanée par méthode de Gauss-Newton des propriétés radiatives volumétriques et surfaciques de matériaux composites de la température ambiante jusqu'à la température de début de dégradation. Le modèle direct de résolution de l'ETR utilise la méthode de Monte Carlo et est basé sur six inconnus : trois propriétés volumétriques et trois propriétés de diffusion surfacique. La fonction de phase est modélisée par la fonction de Henyey-Greenstein. Cette étude montre que les propriétés identifiées permettent de reproduire les lobes de réflectance et de transmittance bidirectionnelles d'un matériau semi-transparent rugueux à différentes températures.

description: We evaluate the mean squared error and mean absolute percentage error of alternative forecasts of quality grade and Certified Angus Beef (CAB) premiums, which may be of interest to cow-calf producers, feeders, and packers. A supply and demand model and a vector autoregressive model outperform a naïve model accounting for only seasonal effects for all premiums except the strongly seasonal Choice-Select spread. While there is no significant difference between the supply and demand model and the vector autoregressive model in terms of mean squared error, the supply and demand model outperforms the vector autoregressive model in terms of mean absolute percentage error in predicting the CAB-Choice premium.

description: A photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) collector is a solar-based micro-cogeneration system which generates simultaneously heat and power for buildings. A hybrid renewable energy system consists of one or more renewable energy sources combined with energy storages and provides energy for a certain energy demand. To maximize the self-consumption and autonomy of renewable energy sources, the optimal size of the hybrid energy system components has to be determined. To find an optimal size of the components can lead conflicting objectives in terms of investment costs and system reliability. In recent years, the design methods have got alongside new design methods using nature inspired artificial intelligence methods, such as genetic algorithm (GA), evolutionary algorithm and particle swarm optimization (PSO). In this paper, a dynamic Matlab/Simulink model of the hybrid renewable energy system, including PVT collectors, lithium-ion battery system and thermal storage, is proposed. The system provides domestic hot water (DHW) and electricity for residential building use. The electricity demand profile of a residential user is taken from statistics for different seasons and day types. The hourly yearly weather data of Strasbourg is used to estimate PVT energy production. A new approach to optimize the sizing of the hybrid system is proposed. The elitist Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is applied to the model to solve a multi-objective optimization problem. The formulation of the 3-dimensional optimization problem aims to minimize the initial investment costs and maximize thermal and electrical reliability of the system, simultaneously. The number of the PVT collectors in series and parallel, capacity of the battery system, thermal storage volume and coolant mass flow rate are applied as design parameters. As a result, the Pareto optimal front is generated with freedom to choose an optimal solution for a desired design. The variation between the optimal solutions was discussed and three solutions were selected. In the case with the best reliability, 41\% of the yearly heating demand and 60\% of the yearly electricity demand were covered by the PVT collectors, and the initial investment of the system was 22601 €.

description: Recursive aggregate demand and supply functions are used to simulate the ability of the farm sector to adjust during the 1970's to three policy alternatives. Different output demand elasticities and shifts in the supply and demand for farm output were assumed. Within reasonable bounds, agriculture could remain economically viable during the 1970's under policies diverting about 6 percent of potential output. An average of 6 percent was diverted from the market by Government productiqn centroI, storage, and subsidized exports in 1962-69. Returning to a free market immediately or by 1980 would place severe financial strain on the farm sector.

This paper shows that estimates of statistical parameters vary for alternative geographic aggregations and for alternative delineations at a given level of aggregation, and that estimates of stanstical para· meters for alternative delineations vary as the level of structural disaggregation of variables used in the analysis is varied. Nine delineations and 12 characteristics were used to examine the statistical consequences of alternative delineations.

description: Idealized convection-permitting simulations of radiative-convective equilibrium (RCE) have become a popular tool for understanding the physical processes leading to horizontal variability of tropical water vapor and rainfall. However, the applicability of idealized simulations to nature is still unclear given that important processes are typically neglected, such as lateral vapor advection by extratropical intrusions, or interactive ocean coupling. Here, we exploit spectral analysis to compactly summarize the multi-scale processes supporting convective aggregation. By applying this framework to high-resolution reanalysis data and satellite observations in addition to idealized simulations, we compare convective-aggregation processes across horizontal scales and data sets. The results affirm the validity of the RCE simulations as an analogy to the real world. Column moist static energy tendencies share similar signs and scale-selectivity in convection-permitting models and observations: Radiation increases variance at wavelengths above 1,000km, while advection damps variance across wavelengths, and surface fluxes mostly reduce variance between 1,000km and 10,000km.

description: Diese Research Note berichtet zentrale Ergebnisse des Open Expert Surveys 2021 (OES21). In diesem Expert:innen-Survey, der vor der Bundestagswahl 2021 durchgeführt wurde, haben mehr als 300 Politikwissenschaftler:innen die wichtigsten Parteien entlang zentraler politischer Sachfragen verortet und deren Wichtigkeit für die jeweilige Partei geschätzt. Der OES21 unterscheidet sich von gängigen Expert:innenbefragungen in zweierlei Hinsicht. Zum einen umfasst der Survey zahlreiche themenspezifische Items, die in anderen Befragungen bislang keine Beachtung fanden. Zum anderen ist die Anzahl der Expert:innen sehr hoch, wodurch Zusammenhänge in der Positionierung auf Ebene der einzelnen Expert:innen analysiert werden können.

Subjects: rayonnement verre Polyflow convection formage

description: Le verre est un matériau semi-transparent dont le comportement mécanique varie fortement en fonction de la température. Dans le cas de la mise en forme du verre, et plus particulièrement lors du formage de bouteille via le procédé soufflé-soufflé, la température du verre varie de 1100$^{\circ}$C à de 600$^{\circ}$C environ. Il est donc nécessaire pour simuler efficacement ces opérations de mises en forme du verre de déterminer avec précision les échanges thermiques au sein du verre. Parmi ces échanges, les effets de convection et de rayonnement influent fortement sur la température et donc sur le comportement mécanique du verre. La prise en compte du rayonnement dans la simulation numérique est complexe et implique des temps de simulations plus importants. De plus, il est nécessaire de déterminer les propriétés optiques spécifiques du verre étudié à l'aide d'essais expérimentaux. En effet, des propriétés telles que l'indice de réfraction du verre ou le coefficient d'absorption sont dépendants de la composition du verre et de sa teinte. La simulation d'une chute de goutte de verre sur une plaque d'acier a été choisie afin d'étudier l'influence des échanges thermiques sur la géométrie et la température de la goutte de verre lors de l'étalement de cette dernière. Pour simuler ce problème, le logiciel Polyflow a été retenu en utilisant une hypothèse de modélisation 2D-axisymétrique pour simplifier le modèle et ainsi réduire le temps de calcul. Ce modèle sera alimenté à l'aide de données expérimentales fournies par Saverglass et de données bibliographiques. Plusieurs simulations numériques ont été réalisées dans différentes conditions de vitesse initiale de chute de la goutte. La première étude vise à étudier l'influence du rayonnement en utilisant les modèles de rayonnement mis à disposition par Polyflow qui sont la Méthode des Ordonnées Discretes et l'approximation de Rosseland. Ensuite, il s'agit d'étudier l'influence des effets convectifs en faisant varier l'intensité des échanges convectifs. Enfin, il s'agit de comparer les données numériques à des données expérimentales réalisées par Saverglass.

description: FRET experiments can yield state-specific structural information on complex dynamic biomolecular assemblies. However, FRET experiments need to be combined with computer simulations to overcome their sparsity. We introduce (i) an automated FRET experiment design tool determining optimal FRET pairs for structural modeling, (ii) a protocol for efficient FRET-assisted computational structural modeling at multiple scales, and (iii) a quantitative quality estimate for judging the accuracy of determined structures. We tested against simulated and experimental data.

description: This paper examines the magnitude of error associated with linear approximations of nonlinear variables based on Taylor's Series. Little attention has been given to the error term in previous empirical studies. This paper presents the mathematical technique for the single-variable and twovariable cases. Examples are given for each situation using agricultural time-series data. Characteristics of time-series data are sometimes crucial in the selection of an evaluation point for minimum error. The importance of selecting evaluation points is illustrated for three categories of timeseries data : (1) smooth trends, (2) trends with substantial variation, and (3) oscillatory series.

description: The reduction number of monomial ideals in the polynomial $K[x,y]$ is studied. We focus on ideals $I$ for which $J=(x^a,y^b)$ is a reduction ideal. The computation of the reduction number amounts to solve linear inequalities. In some special cases the reduction number can be explicitly computed.
Twistor theory of symplectic manifolds

description: This article is a contribution to the understanding of the geometry of the twistor space of a symplectic manifold. We consider the bundle $Z$ with fibre the Siegel domain Sp(2n,R)/U(n) existing over any given symplectic 2n-manifold M. Then, after recalling the construction of the almost complex structure induced on $Z$ by a symplectic connection on M, we study and find some specific properties of both. We show a few examples of twistor spaces, develop the interplay with the symplectomorphisms of M, find some results about a natural almost Hermitian structure on $Z$ and finally prove its n+1-holomorphic completeness. We end by proving a vanishing theorem about the Penrose transform.

description: This paper modifies and employs a model previously developed for empirical evaluation of the impact of commodity price-support programs on corn acreage. (See J. P. Houck and M. E. Ryan, "Supply Analysis for Corn in the United States ... ," Amer. Jour. Agr. Econ. 54: May 1972; and J. P. Houck and A. Subotnik, "The U.S. Supply of Soybeans ... ," Agr. Econ. Res. 21 (4); 99- 108, Oct. 1969.) This model is used to analyze the effect of the set-aside program on corn plantings. Estimates for corn acreage planted in 1971 range from 73.6 to 74.6 million compared with actual plantings of 74.7 million acres. For 1972, 68.1 to 69.7 million acres of corn are predicted.

description: Trinoridia, gen. nov.
 Type species, Trinoridia calcaris, sp. nov.
 Description. Moderately small to medium size species. General habitus similar to Calodia; aedeagus long, tubular with 3 distinctive processes arranged subapically to apex of shaft, glabrous and/or with accessory spines apically on shaft, sometimes with patch of small teeth on dorsal margin; pygofer glabrous or sparsely setose, sometimes with digitate caudoventral process, never with long caudodorsal process, always with small lobe apically; style with short to long apophysis; subgenital plate glabrous or with few apical setae, never with apical spine.
 Etymology. The name of the genus is a combination of the Latin root trin - [= three of each] and suffix - idia is derived from the genus Coelidia.
 Remarks. The genus Trinoridia is distinguished from related genera by the narrow aedeagal shaft with 3 separate, subapical to apical processes. Two new species and 3 species removed from Calodia are assigned to this genus. The group is widely distributed from India to Malaysia.
