Formal and Operational Study of C-DEVS
(2011-11-12)C-DEVS is a formalism for modeling and analysis of discrete event systems. It refers to the original formalism defined by Zeigler in 1976. While the simulation algorithms are well defined, their implementation is a challenge ...

A Model-View-Controller Based Platform for the Modeling and Simulation of the Hoist Scheduling Problem
(2010-12-12)The hoist scheduling problem is a critical issue in the design and control of many manufacturing processes. When the hoist number and tank numbers are very large, finding an optimal schedule is very hard. As a result of ...

Directed collective motion of bacteria under channel confinement
(Institute of PhysicsNew Journal of Physics, 2016-07-01)Dense suspensions of swimming bacteria are known to exhibit collective behaviour arising from the interplay of steric and hydrodynamic interactions. Unconfined suspensions exhibit transient, recurring vortices and jets, ...

Non-trivial Phase Coupling in Polariton Multiplets
(American Physical SocietyPhysical Review X, 2016)We investigate the phase coupling between spatially separated polariton condensates under non-resonant optical pulsed excitation. In the simple case of two condensates, we observe phase locking either in symmetric or ...

Quantifying eddy feedbacks and forcings in the tropospheric response to stratospheric sudden warmings
(American Meteorological SocietyJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2016-08-26)The equatorward shift of the zonal mean midlatitude tropospheric jet following a stratospheric sudden warming in a comprehensive, stratosphere-resolving model is found to be well quantified by a simple model, due to Lorenz ...
