Non-planar snake gaits: from Stigmatic-starts to Sidewinding

Posted by klaurent March 26, 2023Harvard

Kavli Affiliate: L. Mahadevan | First 5 Authors: N. Charles, R. Chelakkot, M. Gazzola, B. Young, L. Mahadevan | Summary: Of the vast variety of animal gaits, one of the most striking is the non-planar undulating motion of a sidewinder. But non-planar gaits are not limited to sidewinders. Here we report a new non-planar mode […]

Hysteresis Compensation in Temperature Response of Fiber Bragg Grating Thermometers Using Dynamic Regression

Posted by klaurent March 25, 2023Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Zeeshan Ahmed | First 5 Authors: Zeeshan Ahmed, , , , | Summary: In recent years there has been considerable interest in using photonic thermometers such as Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) and silicon ring resonators as an alternative technology to resistance-based legacy thermometers. Although FBG thermometers have been commercially available for decades their […]

Highly Available Blockchain Nodes With N-Version Design

Posted by dbos March 25, 2023UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Javier Ron, César Soto-Valero, Long Zhang, Benoit Baudry, Martin Monperrus | Summary: As all software, blockchain nodes are exposed to faults in their underlying execution stack. Unstable execution environments can disrupt the availability of blockchain nodes interfaces, resulting in downtime for users. This paper introduces the concept […]

Stability and detectability of exomoons orbiting HIP 41378 f, a temperate Jovian planet with an anomalously low apparent density

Posted by dbos March 24, 2023MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Caleb K. Harada, Courtney D. Dressing, Munazza K. Alam, James Kirk, Mercedes Lopez-Morales | Summary: Moons orbiting exoplanets ("exomoons") may hold clues about planet formation, migration, and habitability. In this work, we investigate the plausibility of exomoons orbiting the temperate ($T_text{eq}=294$ K) giant ($R = 9.2$ R$_oplus$) […]
