Item type:Publication, Active vibration absorber for a continuous structure model(2021-03-24)The reduction of mechanical vibrations is field of continuous research in engineering in order to reduce damage and improve the performance of structures, machinery, piping and others systems, when they are in presence of dynamical forces. In this sense, different alternatives have been proposed over time, the active vibration absorber highlights as an alternative which can absorb the vibration from a primary system for different excitation frequency in real time. In this study, an active vibration absorber has been modelled as an electromechanical device composed of a 1-DOF model for the absorber and an equivalent electrical circuit for the electromagnetic actuator. It was implemented in a real structure represented by a cantilever beam continuous model, which is the most accurate model that can be used. A set of differential equations which represent the dynamical behaviour of the cantilever beam implemented with the active vibration absorber was obtained from the complete model and it was simulated in Matlab Simulink®. An application of the active vibration absorber for an industry piping system based on the finite element model formulation is presented and developed. Results indicate that the active vibration absorber is able to significantly reduce the vibrations amplitude of the primary system, especially in resonance conditions, for a discrete frequency range. The analytic model and procedure developed here can easily widespread to any more complex primary system. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Operation of a Modular 3D-Pixelated Liquid Argon Time-Projection Chamber in a Neutrino Beam(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2026-03-01)The 2x2 Demonstrator, a prototype for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) liquid argon (LAr) Near Detector, was exposed to the Neutrinos from the Main Injector (NuMI) neutrino beam at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab). This detector is a prototype of a new modular design for a liquid argon time-projection chamber (LArTPC), comprising a two-by-two array of four modules, each further segmented into two optically isolated LArTPCs. The 2x2 Demonstrator features a number of pioneering technologies, including a low-profile resistive field shell to establish drift fields, native 3D ionization pixelated imaging, and a high-coverage dielectric light readout system. The 2.4-tonne active mass detector is flanked upstream and downstream by supplemental solid-scintillator tracking planes, repurposed from the MINERvA experiment, which track ionizing particles exiting the argon volume. The antineutrino beam data collected by the detector over a 4.5 day period in 2024 include over 30,000 neutrino interactions in the LAr active volume—the first neutrino interactions reported by a DUNE detector prototype. During its physics-quality run, the 2x2 Demonstrator operated at a nominal drift field of 500 V/cm and maintained good LAr purity, with a stable electron lifetime of approximately 1.25 ms. This paper describes the detector and supporting systems, summarizes the installation and commissioning, and presents the initial validation of collected NuMI beam and off-beam self-triggers. In addition, it highlights observed interactions in the detector volume, including candidate muon antineutrino events.1 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Coherent J/ψ photoproduction at midrapidity in Pb−Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV(Elsevier, 2025)The coherent J∕𝜓 photoproduction cross section is measured for the first time at midrapidity in peripheral to semicentral Pb − Pb collisions at √ 𝑠NN = 5.02 TeV. The centrality differential cross section d𝜎∕d𝑦 is reported for the centrality range 40–90%, together with the doubly-differential cross section d 2𝜎∕d𝑦d𝑝T , extracted in two peripheral centrality classes. The J∕𝜓 mesons are reconstructed in the dielectron channel, in the rapidity interval |𝑦| < 0.9 using the ALICE central barrel detectors. The J∕𝜓 cross section at midrapidity is statistically compatible to the earlier ALICE measurement at forward rapidity and at the same centre-of-mass energy, and shows only a mild centrality dependence over the covered range. Several sets of theoretical calculations taking into account the hadronic overlap in the collisions but ignoring possible final-state effects from a hot ex1
