Numerical Simulations of Soil Liquefaction using Stochastic Input Parameters
The influence of spatial variability of soil properties on the results of numerical simulations of dynamically induced pore water pressure is addressed. Random media of NSPT values are generated based on in situ test results. The soil geomechanical properties are evaluated at each location, function of the NSPT values, and finite element simulations of the behavior of a horizontally layered soil subjected to seismic loading are performed. The influence of : (1) assumed distribution of the underlying random variable, (2) scale of fluctuation, and (3) finite element mesh size are discussed in terms of predicted liquefaction index and excess pore pressure build-up
Comparison of four genotyping assays for epidemiological study of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
Twenty-six methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains were genetically differentiated by interrepeat PCR and the results compared with those of ribotyping, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis obtained in a previous study for the same strains. The comparison showed that the PCR-mediated assays were as discriminatory as PFGE, whereas ribotyping was the least powerful genotyping method. Due to the ease of performance, PCR fingerprinting may become the method of choice for establishing clonal relationships among Staphylococcus aureus isolates
Construction of the probe beam photo-injector of CTF3
JACoW web site http://accelconf.web.cern.ch/AccelConf/e06This paper describes the HF (High-Frequency) and dynamic beam modelling performed onto the 3 GHz / 2,5 cells photo-injector of the future CTF3 (CLIC Test Facility 3) probe beam linac. The latter provides the beam to demonstrate the feasibility of the 30 GHz accelerating sections in the framework of the CLIC project. The Probe Beam Photo-Injector (PBPI) is inspired from the Drive Beam Photo-Injector (DBPI) already designed by LAL and actually tested in our laboratory. However, the design of PBPI has been simplified with respect to the previous because the charge per bunch is 4 times lower and the number of bunches several orders of magnitude smaller. The internal geometry and the coupling system of the PBPI have been designed with 2D (SUPERFISH*) and 3D (HFSS**) codes. Based on the modified design, PARMELA and POISSON simulations showed that the technical specifications are fulfilled. The vacuum issue has been also carefully investigated, and NEG (Non Evaporated Getter) technology has been adopted in order to reach the mbar pressure inside the structure. This work is done in deep collaboration with CEA/Saclay, which is responsible of the CTF3 Probe Beam Linac design and construction [1]

Role of friction-induced torque in stick-slip motion
We present a minimal quasistatic 1D model describing the kinematics of the
transition from static friction to stick-slip motion of a linear elastic block
on a rigid plane. We show how the kinematics of both the precursors to
frictional sliding and the periodic stick-slip motion are controlled by the
amount of friction-induced torque at the interface. Our model provides a
general framework to understand and relate a series of recent experimental
observations, in particular the nucleation location of micro-slip instabilities
and the build up of an asymmetric field of real contact area.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
Evidence for SrHo2O4 and SrDy2O4 as model J1-J2 zig-zag chain materials
Neutron diffraction and inelastic spectroscopy is used to characterize the
magnetic Hamiltonian of SrHo2O4 and SrDy2O4. Through a detailed computation of
the crystal-field levels we find site- dependent anisotropic single-ion
magnetism in both materials and diffraction measurements show the presence of
strong one-dimensional spin correlations. Our measurements indicate that
competing interactions of the zig-zag chain, combined with frustrated
interchain interactions, play a crucial role in stabilizing spin-liquid type
correlations in this series.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure
