    • Conca Rosende, Carlos; Mahadevan, Rajesh; Sanz, León (2009)
      The pioneering works of Murat and Tartar (Topics in the mathematical modeling of composite materials. PNLDE 31. Birkhäuser, Basel, 1997) go a long way in showing, in general, that problems of optimal design may not admit ...
    • Dávila, Juan; Dupaigne, Louis; Montenegro, Marcelo (AMER INST MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES, 2008-07)
      We consider Delta u = 0 in Omega, partial derivative u/partial derivative v = lambda f(u) on Gamma(1), u= 0 on Gamma(2) where lambda > 0, f(u) = e(u) or f(u) = (1 + u)(p), Gamma(1), Gamma(2) is a partition of partial ...
    • Martin, Lynn B.; Addison, Bri Anne; Bean, Andrew G.D.; Buchanan, Katherine L.; Crino, Ondi L.; Eastwood, Justin R.; Flies, Andrew S.; Hamede, Rodrigo; Hill, Geoffrey E.; Klaassen, Marcel; Koch, Rebecca E.; Martens, Johanne M.; Napolitano, Constanza; Narayan, Edward J. (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
      Individual hosts differ extensively in their competence for parasites, but traditional research has discounted this variation, partly because modeling such heterogeneity is difficult. This discounting has diminished as ...
    • Ortega, Cristina; Vargas, Gabriel; Rojas, Maisa; Rutllant, José A.; Muñoz, Práxedes; Lange, Carina B.; Pantoja, Silvio; Dezileau, Laurent; Ortlieb, Luc (Elsevier B.V., 2019)
      Extreme precipitation events and multi-annual droughts, especially in arid to semi-arid subtropical regions, are among the most critical El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and global climate change impacts. Here, we assess ...
    • Clerc Gavilán, Marcel; González Cortes, Gregorio; Wilson, Mario (Optical Soc. Amer., 2016-06-15)
      Extreme events such as rogue waves are often associated with the merging of coherent structures. We report on experimental results in the physics of extreme events emerging in a liquid-crystal light valve subjected to ...

    • Mor, Rivay; Netzer, Hagai; Trakhtenbrot, Benny; Shemmer, Ohad; Lira Teillery, Paulina (2012-04-20)
      We report new Herschel observations of 25 z 4.8 extremely luminous optically selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Five of the sources have extremely large star-forming (SF) luminosities, LSF, corresponding to SF ...
    • Nguyen, Gia Bao; Remenik Zisis, Daniel (University of Washington, 2017)
      We consider finite collections of N non-intersecting Brownian paths on the line and on the half-line with both absorbing and reflecting boundary conditions (corresponding to Brownian excursions and reflected Brownian ...
    • Barrett, Bradford; Campos, Diego; Veloso, José; Rondanelli Rojas, Roberto (American Geophysical Union, 2016)
      From 18 to 27 March 2015, northern, central, and southern Chile experienced a series of extreme hydrometeorological events. First, the highest surface air temperature ever recorded in Santiago (with reliable records dating ...
    • Liu, Tie; Kim, Kee-Tae; Wu, Yuefang; Li, Di; Lee, Chang-Won; Pree, Christopher De; Qin, Sheng-Li; Wang, Ke; Tatematsu, Ken’ichi; Zhang, Qizhou; Mardones Pérez, Diego; Liu, Sheng-Yuan; Cho, Se-Hyung (The American Astronomical Society, 2015-09-10)
      W49N is a mini-starburst in the Milky Way and is thus an ideal laboratory for high-mass star formation studies. Due to its large distance (11.1 0.7 0.9 - + kpc), the kinematics inside and between the dense molecular ...
    • Galliano, E.; Alloin, D.; Pantin, E.; Granato, G. L.; Delva, P.; Silva, L.; Lagage, P. O.; Panuzzo, P. (EDP SCIENCES S A, 2008-12)
      Context. In a previous work, three bright mid-infrared/radio sources were discovered in the nuclear region of starburst/AGN galaxy NGC 1365. Aims. The present study aims to confirm that these sources are indeed young and ...
    • Carrillo Rosua, Javier; Boyce, Adrián J.; Morales Ruano, Salvador; Morata Céspedes, Diego; Roberts, Stephen; Munizaga Villavicencio, Francisco; Moreno Rodríguez, Verónica (Elsevier, 2014)
      Chilean manto-type (CMT) Cu(–Ag) hydrothermal deposits share a characteristic association of volcanosedimentary Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous host rocks, style of mineralization, ore and associated mineralogy and geochemistry, ...
    • Meiner, Martin; Musalem Said, Andrés; Huber, Joel (AMER Marketing Assoc., 2016-02)
      Choice-based conjoint is a popular technique for characterizing consumers' choices. Three eye-tracking studies explore decision processes in conjoint choices that take less time and become more accurate with practice. These ...
    • Devaraj, Manoj; Saravanan, R.; Deivasigamani, RanjithKumar; Gupta, Vinod Kumar; Gracia Caroca, Francisco; Jayadevan, Santhanalakshmi (2016)
      In this paper, we demonstrate and compare the synthesis of copper (Cu) and copper(I) oxide on Cu (Cu/Cu2O) nanoparticles via thermal decomposition method using a combination of oleic acid and oleylamine and oleic acid ...
    • Mosquera, Edgar; Carvajal, Nicolás; Morel, Mauricio; Marin, Carlos (Elsevier, 2017)
      In this work, a simple, effective, reproducible and green fabrication process for the production of high-quality, pureZnSe nanoparticles at low temperature is presented. The structural and optical properties of these nano ...
    • Pérez Flores, Claudio; Aravena, Carlos; Vallejos, Juan I.; Estévez Valencia, Pablo; Held Barrandeguy, Claudio (2010)
      Face and iris localization is one of the most active research areas in image understanding for new applications in security and theft prevention, as well as in the development of human–machine interfaces. In the past, ...
    • Cament Riveros, Leonardo; Galdames Grunberg, Francisco; Bowyer, Kevin W.; Pérez Flores, Claudio (Elsevier, 2015)
      Face recognition is one of the most active areas of research in computer vision. Gabor features have been used widely in face identification because of their good results and robustness. However, the results of face ...
    • Nguyen, Bao Tran; Khanh, Pham Duy (Springer, 2020)
      Representation formulas for faces and support functions of the values of maximal monotone operators are established in two cases: either the operators are defined on reflexive and locally uniformly convex real Banach spaces ...
