A Normal Form for Generalized State Space Descriptions
- 1995
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this report we will give a definition of a normal form for systems on generalized state space form. We will investigate some of the properties of this normal form and we will show how the usual normal form follows as a special case when we are working with affine polynomial systems. The construction of the normal form is based on a generalization of the Lie derivative. The calculation of this new Lie derivative is done with Grobner bases.

- The paracingulate sulcus is a tertiary sulcus formed during the third trimester. In healthy individuals paracingulate sulcation is more prevalent in the left hemisphere. The anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyri are focal points of neurodegeneration in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD). This study aims to determine the prevalence and impact of paracingulate sulcation in bvFTD. Structural magnetic resonance images of individuals with bvFTD (n = 105, mean age 66.9 years), Alzheimer's disease (n = 92, 73.3), and healthy controls (n = 110, 62.4) were evaluated using standard protocol for hemispheric paracingulate sulcal presence. No difference in left hemisphere paracingulate sulcal frequency was observed between groups; 0.72, 0.79, and 0.70, respectively, in the bvFTD, Alzheimer's disease, and healthy control groups, (P = 0.3). A significant impact of right (but not left) hemispheric paracingulate sulcation on age at disease onset was identified in bvFTD (mean 60.4 years where absent vs. 63.8 where present [P = 0.04, Cohen's d = 0.42]). This relationship was not observed in Alzheimer's disease. These findings demonstrate a relationship between prenatal neuronal development and the expression of a neurodegenerative disease providing a gross morphological example of brain reserve.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The prediction and realization of magnetic excitations driven by electrical currents via the spin transfer torque effect, enables novel magnetic nano-devices where spin-waves can be used to process and store information. The functional control of such devices relies on understanding the properties of non-linear spin-wave excitations. It has been demonstrated that spin waves can show both an itinerant character, but also appear as localized solitons. So far, it was assumed that localized solitons have essentially cylindrical, s−like symmetry. Using a newly developed high-sensitivity time-resolved magnetic x-ray microscopy, we instead observe the emergence of a novel localized soliton excitation with a nodal line, i.e. with p−like symmetry. Micromagnetic simulations identify the physical mechanism that controls the transition from s− to p−like solitons. Our results suggest a potential new pathway to design artificial atoms with tunable dynamical states using nanoscale magnetic devices.

Characterisation of the laminar pulsatile flow in toroidal pipes
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study analyses the main characteristics of the fully developed laminar pulsatile flow in a toroidal pipe as the governing parameters vary. A novel computational technique is developed to obtain time-periodic solutions of the Navier--Stokes equations. They are computed as fixed points of the system in the frequency domain via the Newton-Raphson method. Drawbacks and advantages of the adopted methodology with respect to a time-stepping technique are discussed. The unsteady component of the driving pressure gradient is found to change linearly with the pulsation amplitude, with a proportionality coefficient dependent on the pulsation frequency. Although the time-averaged streamwise wall shear stress is very close to the value in the steady case, very large fluctuations are observed within the period. Flow reversal occurs during certain time intervals in the period for high pulsation amplitudes. The analysis of the spatial structure of the unsteady component of the velocity field shows that three different flow regimes can be identified, depending on the pulsation frequency, termed quasi-steady, intermediate and plug-flow regimes.
