Abstract:
Exponential growth in computer technology, both in terms of individual CPUs and parallel technologies over the past decades has triggered rapid progress in large scale simulations. However, despite these achievements it has become clear that many conventional state-of-the-art techniques are ill-equipped to tackle problems that inherently involve multiple scales in configuration space. Our difficulty is that conventional ("time driven" or "time stepped") techniques update all parts of simulation space (fields, particles) synchronously, i.e. at time intervals assumed to be the same throughout th

This thesis is concerned with explanations of embodied cognition as internal simulation. The hypothesis is that several cognitive processes can be explained in terms of predictive chains of simulated perceptions and actions. In other words, perceptions and actions are reactivated internally by the nervous system to be used in cognitive phenomena such as mental imagery. This thesis contributes by advancing the theoretical foundations of simulations and the empirical grounds on which they are based, including a review of the empiricial evidence for the existence of simulated perceptions and acti

Abstract:
Acumen is a language and tool for modeling and simulating cyber-physical systems. It allows the user to conduct simulations using a technique called rigorous simulation that produces results with explicit error bounds, expressed as intervals. This feature can be useful when designing and testing systems where the reliability of results or taking uncertainty into account is important. Unfortunately, analyzing these simulation results can be difficult, as Acumen supports only two ways of presenting them: raw data tables and 2D-plots. These views of the data make certain kinds of analysis cumbers

Abstract:
The continual growth of computing power in small devices has motivated the development of novel approaches to optimizing operational systems efficiently and effectively. These optimization problems are often so complex that solving them analytically may be difficult, if not prohibited. One method for solving such problems is to use online simulation. However, challenges in using online simulation include the issues of responsiveness (e.g., because of communication delays), scalability, and failure resistance. To tackle these issues, this study proposes embedding online simulations into a netwo

Radio access technologies for cellular mobile networks are continuously being evolved to meet the future demands for higher data rates, and lower end‐to‐end delays.

Clumps in hot star winds can originate from shock compression due to the line driven instability. One-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations reveal a radial wind structure consisting of highly compressed shells separated by voids, and colliding with fast clouds. Two-dimensional simulations are still largely missing, despite first attempts. Clumpiness dramatically affects the radiative transfer and thus all wind diagnostics in the UV, optical, and in X-rays. The microturbulence approximation applied hitherto is currently superseded by a more sophisticated radiative transfer in stochastic media. B

Gravitational microlensing occurs when a massive lens (typically a star) deflects light from a more distant source, creating two unresolvable images that are magnified. The effect is transient due to the motions of the lens and source, and the changing magnification gives rise to a characteristic lightcurve. If the lensing object is a binary star or planetary system, more images are created and the lightcurve becomes more complicated. Detection of these lightcurve features allows the lens companion's presence to be inferred. Orbital motion of the binary lens can be detected in some microlensin

Abstract:
A Lagrangian framework for computing subgrid-scale combustion physics in Large Eddy Simulations (LES) of fire is formulated and validated. The framework is based on coupling LES formulation, based on the Fire Dynamic Simulator (FDS) with the One-Dimensional Turbulence (ODT) model. The ODT model involves reaction-diffusion and turbulent transport along one-dimensional domains. The one-dimensional domains are attached to the flame brush positions, computed in LES, and are allowed to propagate along its surface. The Lagrangian LES-ODT framework involves various implementations including a) moment

Abstract:
Les silices nanostructurées sont des matériaux ultra-poreux (plus de 80% de porosité) utilisés pour la confection de Panneaux Isolants sous Vides (PIV). Elles possèdent des propriétés thermiques exceptionnelles, mais de piètres propriétés mécaniques.L’enjeu de cette thèse est d’étudier ces matériaux aux échelles de la particule (quelques nm), de l’agrégat de particules (quelques dizaines de nm) et de l’agglomérat d’agrégats (quelques centaines de nm), afin de mieux comprendre les comportements mécanique et thermique à l’aide de simulations, et de proposer des pistes pour améliorer le compromis

Abstract:
In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die Eigenschaften geschlossener fluider Membranen, sogenannter Vesikeln, bei endlichen Temperaturen untersucht. Dies beinhaltet Betrachtungen zur Form freier Vesikeln, eine Untersuchung des Adhäsionsverhaltens von Vesikeln an planaren Substraten sowie eine Untersuchung der Eigenschaften fluider Vesikeln in eingeschränkten Geometrien. Diese Untersuchungen fanden mit Hilfe von Monte-Carlo-Simulationen einer triangulierten Vesikeloberfläche statt. Die statistischen Eigenschaften der fluktuierenden fluiden Vesikeln wurden zum Teil mittels Freier-Energie-Profile an
