Abstract:
This paper addresses the challenge of trajectory planning for autonomous vehicles operating in complex, constrained environments. The proposed method enhances the hybrid A-star algorithm through back-end optimization. An adaptive node expansion strategy is introduced to handle varying environmental complexities. By integrating Dijkstra’s shortest path search, the method improves direction selection and refines the estimated cost function. Utilizing the characteristics of hybrid A-star path planning, a quadratic programming approach with designed constraints smooths discrete path points. This results in a smoothed trajectory that supports speed planning using S-curve profiles. Both simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the improved hybrid A-star search significantly boosts efficiency. The trajectory shows continuous and smooth transitions in heading angle and speed, leading to notable improvements in trajectory planning efficiency and overall comfort for autonomous vehicles in challenging environments.

Abstract:
Maintaining grid stability is a challenge as utilities rush to add renewable power to their generating portfolio. The business case for renewables is undeniable: as prices for wind turbines and solar panels keep dropping and the costs of installation go down, renewable electricity becomes some of the cheapest power available. But the inherently inconsistent nature of solar and wind energy has grid operators looking for new ways to seamlessly integrate their output into the system. This challenge is being faced around the world, and in the U.S. it is playing out initially in California.This article takes a closer look at the steps California is taking to smooth out the duck curve, a graph of power production over the course of a day that shows the timing imbalance between peak demand and renewable energy production.

Full text
Abstract:
Les laves torrentielles sont des phénomènes géologiques d'écoulement rapides d'un mélange fluide solide dans le lit d'un torrent. Le risque associé à ces écoulements est important pour les communautés vivant dans les régions montagneuses. Pour améliorer la précision de la gestion du risque, il est important de pouvoir modéliser ces phénomènes de façon précise. Bien que la communauté de recherche autour des laves torrentielles soit enthousiaste aux approches numériques, seulement quelques modèles ont calibré et validé leurs modèles à plusieurs échelles en utilisant des données de terrains et des données expérimentales. Cette thèse vise à conceptualiser un modèle qui est à l'interface de la communauté des modélisateurs et de celle des experts de terrains. Pour ce faire, des données de terrains sont utilisées pour calibrer et valider un modèle précis et résolu dans la hauteur couplant à la fois un solveur de mécanique granulaire et de mécanique des fluides. Le modèle numérique utilise le solveur DualSPHysics, qui couple la méthode Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics (SPH) avec une méthode de résolution des interactions solide-solide par la librairie ProjectChrono.Le travail présente d'abord une introduction avec un état de l'art de la recherche sur les laves torrentielles ainsi qu'une présentation de la méthode numérique employée. Ensuite, le travail est divisé en trois chapitres. Premièrement, un protocole pour l'exploration des données de terrains est présenté, de même que son application sur le torrent du Réal (Sud-Est de la France). Les données ainsi produites nourriront le modèle numérique. Dans un deuxième temps, nous présentons un modèle simplifié 2D de laves. Les laves y sont présentées comme un mélange de grains polydisperse et de fluide visqueux au comportement Newtonien. Ce modèle est d'abord validé à plusieurs échelles puis des laves de différentes concentrations solides sont étudiées. Enfin, un modèle plus complexe est ébauché en employant un fluide interstitiel non-Newtonien. Le travail montre que ce type de modèle est adapté pour l'exploration de la physique des laves<br>Debris flows, i.e. rapid movements of a mixture of solid and fluid on steep terrain, pose significant risks to inhabited mountainous areas. Accurate modelling is crucial for effective risk mapping and to define relevant mitigation strategies in these regions. While there's enthusiasm in the community for debris flow modelling, only few models have used surge-scale data from real field measurements for calibration and validation at various scales. This Ph.D. thesis aims to conceptualise a field-driven coupled solid-fluid model for alpine debris flow surges at the surge scale. The numerical modelling in this study employs the hybrid model DualSPHysics, which uses the Lagrangian Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics (SPH) method for fluid modelling and fully couples it with the solid dynamics solver ProjectChrono.After an introduction of the state-of-the-art in debris flow research and a presentation of the numerical methods, the work is divided in three interlocked sections. First, we focus on field data exploration by presenting a protocol for the processing of debris flow surge data. The outputted data on debris flow surges, processed from the monitoring station of the Réal torrent (South East France) will then feed the numerical model.Secondly, a simplified model is introduced. The front of the surges are represented in 2D featuring polydisperse boulders and a viscous Newtonian fluid. The model is rigorously validated against experimental data and empirical considerations.Thirdly, the model increases in complexity by adding a non-Newtonian rheology to the interstitial fluid.The work shows that such models are able to represent debris flow motion with field-like features

Abstract:
The search for the scaling limits of two-dimensional critical systems has been a very active area of research in Statistical Physics. Recently, a new technique for the analysis of these scaling limits was developed after the introduction of a process known as the Stochastic Loewner Evolution (SLE) by Oded Schramm. This process is a stochastic version of the Loewner chain from classical complex analysis, in which the driving function of the chain is taken to be a Brownian motion. The behaviour of SLE has been widely studied and has enabled the rigorous identification of the scaling limits of several discrete critical systems including critical site percolation on the triangular lattice. Many other systems are also conjectured to converge to some SLE-related process. The study of the behaviour of SLE has also lead to the exact calculation of many quantities relating to the asymptotic behaviour of these discrete models. In this study, we review the theory of classical Loewner chains before introducing a process that can be viewed as a smooth analogue of a Loewner chain. We study the properties of this process and show that it possesses a greater degree of regularity than a classical Loewner chain; in particular, we show that the planar domains associated with the smooth chain have smooth boundaries. We then study these smooth chains in the stochastic setting of Schramm, calling the resulting process a smooth SLE. One main difference between SLE and smooth SLE is that SLE possesses a certain scale-invariance, whereas smooth SLE processes do not. This scale-invariance is often crucial to the proofs of the behaviour of SLE and therefore any proof of corresponding behaviour for the smooth case must use other methods. The extra regularity of the smooth chain implies that some of the behavioural exhibited by an SLE process is not seen for a smooth chain. However, the main behavioural phase change, seen for SLE when the variance parameter of the driving Brownian motion is changed, is also seen in the smooth case. Finally, we examine issues relating to the approximation of smooth Loewner chains and also the convergence of these smooth chains to their classical counterparts.

Abstract:
Granular matter is defined as a collection of particle grains, such as sand.This type of matter have different characteristics (solid, liquid and gas) depending on the energy level per grain. There are several approaches to modeling and numerical simulations of granular matter. They are used by different groups for different purposes, and the choice between the approaches is based on knowledge and tradition rather than what might be best for the purpose. The key questions are when to use what method and what physical quality is lost depending on the choice.Two regimes of discrete element granular simulations emerge: smooth and non-smooth. To compare the efficiency and physical quality of the two approaches, four physics softwares are examined including Bullet Physics, LMGC90, AgX and LIGGGHTS. Test scenes are setup in each software and the results are compared to each other or to the results of other work.The thesis is performed at UMIT Research Lab at Umeå University.

Abstract:
Information visualization is a powerful tool for understanding large datasets. However, many commonly-used techniques in information visualization are not C^1 smooth, i.e. when represented as a function, they are either discontinuous or have a discontinuous first derivative. For example, histograms are a non-smooth visualization of density. Not only are histograms non-smooth visually, but they are also non-smooth over their parameter space, as they change abruptly in response to smooth change of bin width or bin offset. For large data visualization, histograms are commonly used in place of smooth alternatives, such as kernel density plots, because histograms can be constructed from data cubes, allowing histograms to be constructed quickly for large datasets. Another example of a non-smooth technique in information visualization is the commonly-used transition approach to animation. Although transitions are designed to create smooth animations, the transition technique produces animations that have velocity discontinuities if the target is changed before the transition has finished. The smooth and efficient zooming and panning technique also shares this problem---the animations produced are smooth while in-flight, but they have velocity discontinuities at the beginning and end and of the animation as well as velocity discontinuities when interrupted. This dissertation applies ideas from signal processing to construct smooth alternatives to these non-smooth techniques. To visualize density for large datasets, we propose BLOCs, a smooth alternative to data cubes that allows kernel density plots to be constructed quickly for large datasets after an initial preprocessing step. To create animations that are smooth even when interrupted, we present LTI animation, a technique that uses LTI filters to create animations that are smooth, even when interrupted. To create zooming and panning animations that are smooth, even when interrupted, we generalize signal processing systems to Riemannian manifolds, resulting in smooth, efficient, and interruptible animations.<br>Ph.

Abstract:
This paper proposes the use of a hybrid magnetic tool, consisting of magnetic particles bonded with water-soluble glue, to improve both surface roughness and form accuracy of brittle materials such as ceramics. As the binder gradually dissolves into the lubricant, the bonded hybrid magnetic tool transforms to a particle brush in a magnetic field, increasing the deformability of the tool and its ability to conform to the target surface. This paper describes the effects of the tool transformation — from a bonded tool to a particle brush — on the characteristics of finished yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) laser ceramics. The bonded tool removes material to flatten and smooth the target surface at the start of the process, gradually transitions to a particle brush (starting at the tool periphery), and finally smooths the surface as a flexible particle brush. The tool deformability and transition speed are adjustable by the binder content.

Abstract The lateral vibration response of a rotor, experiencing periodic contact with a nonrotating machine component, is considered. In the case of an inelastic impact, this causes a piecewise, step-changing stiffness of the system. Applying to the rotor model a specially developed variable transformation which smooths discontinuities, and applying then an averaging technique, a variety of imbalance-related resonant regimes of rotor lateral motion are obtained, and their stability is analyzed. The developed analytical algorithm has a high potential as a valuable research tool for investigating local nonlinear effects in rotor systems.

Abstract:
Abstract Aluminum recycling requires less energy and releases fewer greenhouse emissions than primary production from naturally occurring ores; however, a significant fraction of the furnace charge is lost to dross generation during remelting. In this article, we use an electric furnace to remelt clean aluminum sheet and machining chip process scrap of varying thickness, surface roughness, and composition. The metal recovery results show that magnesium-containing alloys (e.g., 2xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx, and 7xxx alloys) accelerate dross generation and lower metal recovery. This is likely due to magnesium having a higher reactivity than aluminum, with the magnesium content detected in the dross (using Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy) greater than the magnesium content in the alloy. Metal recovery decreased when remelting thinner scrap. Metal recovery for clean machining chips was lower than for aluminum sheet scrap of the same thickness and composition. This disparity was likely due to the greater surface roughness of the machining chips, which will increase the surface area for oxidation and potentially the wetting of the oxide by the Wenzel effect. The decreased metal recovery for scratch brushed aluminum sheets confirmed the effect of surface roughness. Subsequently, a “squeeze” cutting tool was designed and manufactured, which smooths the otherwise rough back-side of the machining chips. These smoother machining chips exhibited increased metal recovery during remelting.

Abstract:
This study focuses on rounded fields, or “Maruhata” in Japanese, on the Miiraku Peninsula located in northwest Fukue Island, one of the Goto Islands, Nagasaki Prefecture. Maruhata fields are normally used for agriculture, but they may have multiple functions, for example in preventing floods by temporarily holding water during heavy rains. We conducted a field survey at a three-tiered Maruhata field in the Take District in Miiraku in to measure its latitude, longitude, and elevation. The presence of Maruhata fields smooths out the inclined plane and offers a flood prevention function by retaining water within during heavy rains and ameliorate flows by breaking the gradient. In addition, Maruhata fields have a function to prevent mud and soil to flow into the sea and reduce pressure on the fishing ground. We conclude that Maruhata fields have a disaster prevention function owning to their topographic features in addition to their function as agricultural fields.

Abstract:
Abstract The Floating Production Storage and Offload system (FPSO) is widely used in offshore oil and gas exploitation. Traditional FPSO hull structures are typically constructed employing stiffened steel panels consisting of steel plates and closely spaced stiffeners. Classification societies require periodic full inspections of the cargo tanks. Nevertheless, the structural impediments created by these stiffeners can pose challenges or even prevent using autonomous equipment for remote inspection of tank structures. Additionally, inspection surveys with people inside the tanks are time-consuming and risky. Hence, a steel-concrete-steel sandwich plate system to address this challenge is proposed as an alternative solution to the conventional stiffened plate composition. Using sandwich panels in the bottom of oil cargo tanks and their longitudinal and transverse bulkheads smooths the surfaces by eliminating the need to use stiffeners, thus facilitating remote inspections with autonomous equipment inside the tanks. Furthermore, this approach can potentially reduce the time needed for periodic inspections of tank structures, following the recommendations set by classification societies to mitigate operational risks. The article presents the results of numerical ultimate strength analyses of sandwich panels and the initial scantlings of an FPSO hull main structure built with the proposed technology. Also, a comparative analysis of the relative total weight is performed.

Abstract:
Optical flow is the process of inferring a vector field of projected velocity information. Projected information changes with dimensionality: points (e.g., crossings and end points) in space project into contours in space/time, contours (e.g., occluding contours) into surfaces; and surfaces (e.g., waterfalls) into volumes. The extent of each kind of structure can be varied as well, from short in both space and time, as is the case for waterfalls, to long in either space or time or both. The Wallach and O'Connell effect, for example, is short in space and long in time, while surface contours can be long in space and time. Using this space/time structural characterization of patterns, we show that previous approaches to measuring sensitivity have only touched (essentially) three points in a much larger space of possibilities. We then conceptualize the optical flow computation as a two- stage process: (1) measurements taken over image sequences; and (2) interpretation of these measurements into a flow field by a cooperative optimization process. We show that (i) the nature of these measurements changes with the dimensionality of the projected objects; and (ii) since small extents of structure require interpolation (filling in of missing information) the interpretation stage smooths over discontinuities for small extents but not for large ones. We support these computational predictions with psychophysical demonstrations.

Abstract:
Southern Ontario offers valuable insights into the supply chain dynamics of fish harvesting and processing across the Great Lakes region. This report analyzes the existing supply of raw materials produced by fish processing plants and evaluates the feasibility of integrating these resources into other markets. The synthesized report compiles and integrates information from various databases. The analysis examines the quantities and rhythms of fish components from Walleye and Yellow Perch. The findings reveal that combining components from the two species can mitigate supply volatility throughout the year. Specifically, the analysis shows that the standard deviation of the weekly proportion of multi-species heads (1.09%) is smaller compared to the standard deviation of individual species - Walleye (1.27%) and Yellow Perch (1.45%). The reduced standard deviation for multi-species data suggests that incorporating diverse species smooths out the extreme fluctuations in weekly supply, making it more attractive for new markets to incorporate these materials into their value chains. Additionally, the report identifies several viable upcycling models for repurposing fish by-products and highlights transformative upcycling models from other regions. The implications of this analysis suggest that substantial quantities of fish discards could lead to a broad range of upcycling opportunities for processing plants. By exploring these options, plants can enhance their economic and ecological performance.
