Abstract Over the past years, growing number of natural hazards all over world has led to an increasing focus on activities aimed at studying and controlling occurrence these phenomena. In this context, monitoring systems have become a fundamental component for Landslide Early Warning Systems, allowing understand evolution processes assess need dedicated mitigation measures. This result is achi...

Abstrul-Thb paper describes an experimental ktur ing system wherein fixel reaction forces, workpiece loading, and workpiece displacements are measured during simulated fixturing operations. The system's configuration, its measurement principles, and tests to characterize its performance are summarized. This system is used to experimentally determine the relationship between workpiece displaceme...

This work is settled in the framework of abstract simplicial complexes. We propose a definition of a watershed and of a collapse for maps defined on pseudomanifolds of arbitrary dimension. Through an equivalence theorem, we establish a deep link between these two notions: any watershed can be obtained by collapse iterated until idempotence, and conversely any collapse iterated until idempotence...

Volcano ground deformation is a tricky puzzle in which different phenomena contribute to the surface displacements with spatial–temporal patterns. We documented some high variable patterns response volcanic and seismic activities occurring at Mt. Etna through January 2015–March 2021 period by exploiting an extensive dataset of GNSS InSAR observations. The most spectacular pattern superfast seaw...

Theories involving localized collapse allow the possibility that classical information could be obtained about quantum states by mechanisms other than standard dynamical maps defined positive operator valued measurements, but nonetheless without allowing superluminal signaling. We can model this extending theory to include hypothetical devices read out local state at a given point, which is con...
