Their stability and eventual breakdown influence wake dynamics, mixing processes, and overall flow performance. This seminar presents two recent studies exploring vortex stability and vortex breakdown.<br>\r\nPart I – Short-wave instability of a helical vortex<br>\r\nThe first part of the seminar discusses the short-wave instability of a helical vortex generated by a rotating blade. Combining experimental dye visualisations, numerical simulations, and theoretical analysis, the study identifies displacement perturbations whose wavelengths are small relative to the helix radius and pitch but may remain large compared with the vortex core size. Stability analysis based on experimentally measured vortex profiles reveals broad bands of unstable wavenumbers for several vortex bending modes. These results differ from predictions of existing theories for short-wave vortex instability. Similar instability modes are also observed in arrays of straight vortices, indicating that the phenomenon is not related to vortex curvature. A theoretical examination of the dispersion relation of Kelvin modes for the measured vortex profiles uncovers a previously unidentified family of modes associated with the specific vorticity distribution. Their non-resonant interaction through the strain field provides a plausible explanation for the experimentally observed instability features.<br>\r\nPart II – Two-phase wing-tip vortex breakdown<br>\r\nThe second part presents the discovery of a new flow feature observed in the wake of a rectangular wing in water: the breakdown of the wing-tip vortex triggered by the injection of air into the vortex core downstream of the wing. Experiments show that, for certain combinations of Reynolds number and angle of attack, a stationary air bubble becomes trapped within the vortex core at a finite distance behind the wing and can persist for several minutes even after the air injection is stopped. Under different conditions, the bubble may drift upstream or downstream, or it may disintegrate immediately. Measurements of bubble properties and vortex characteristics reveal that the breakdown behaviour depends primarily on the vortex circulation and on the axial flow component within the core. The formation of a stable breakdown bubble occurs only when a velocity excess relative to the free stream is present.<br>\r\nThe two studies highlight new mechanisms governing the stability and transformation of vortical flows, offering insight into the dynamics of vortex instabilities and vortex-core modifications in fluid systems.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography</strong><br>\r\nThomas Leweke graduated from RWTH Aachen University in Germany in 1990 with a “Diplom” (Master) in Physics.

Janelidze, L. Márki and W. Tholen in 2002, generalizes that of abelian category, and captures the homological properties that the categories of groups, associative algebras, Lie algebras and cocommutative Hopf algebras over a field have in common. Internal structures behave surprisingly well in semi-abelian categories. For example, any internal reflexive graph admits at most one internal category structure, and the categories of internal categories and internal groupoids are isomorphic. Moreover, the category of internal groupoids is equivalent to the category of internal crossed modules. The notion of internal crossed module in any semi-abelian category was introduced by G. Janelidze in 2003, and recovers in particular the classical notion of crossed module of groups. The fact that the category of internal groupoids in a semi-abelian category is itself semi-abelian implies that also the category of internal n-fold groupoids is well-behaved.<br>\r\n <br>\r\nIn this talk, I will prove that the full subcategory of internal n-groupoids in a semi-abelian category is a Birkhoff subcategory of the category of internal n-fold groupoids, and provide a simple description of the corresponding reflection for n=2.

In this talk, I will discuss the potential of Topological Data Analysis (TDA) for gait pattern classification. Unlike conventional approaches that rely on explicit detection of Gait Events (GEs) to compute Spatiotemporal Gait Parameters (SGPs), TDA characterises the global structure of gait signals directly, capturing relationships and patterns in the data without requiring GEs. This is particularly relevant in real-world settings, where GE detection can be diQicult due to heterogeneity in walking conditions and gait patterns, potentially biasing clinically relevant metrics and, consequently, decision-making.<br>\r\nWithin our department, preliminary results have shown that TDA-based features can achieve classification performance comparable to that of SGPs in fall-risk assessment. These findings suggest that topology oQers a competitive alternative for representing gait data, with the potential to better handle variability across subjects and pathological<br>\r\nconditions.<br>\r\nBuilding on these results, we plan to further extend the TDA framework in two directions. First, we aim to investigate time-aware topological methods to better capture the<br>\r\ntemporal structure of gait signals. Second, we will explore Topological Deep Learning (TDL) approaches to reduce reliance on handcrafted design choices and potentially<br>\r\nimprove classification performance. By combining the robustness of topology with datadriven representation learning, this work seeks to provide robust tools for the classification of typical and pathological gait patterns.<br>\r\n </p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-30T09:44:37", "last_modification_date": "2026-03-30T09:47:45", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "CM 1 517", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CM%201%20517", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Elena Botti, Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB)", "organizer": "Markus Kirolos", "contact": "Maroussia Schaffner", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120224/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71376, "title": "EPFL Latsis Symposium 2026: “Decoding the Cell: Modeling, Predicting, and Engineering Cellular States”", "slug": "epfl-latsis-symposium-2026-decoding-the-cell-model", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/epfl-latsis-symposium-2026-decoding-the-cell-model", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32724/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32724/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32724/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-29", "end_date": "2026-10-30", "start_time": null, "end_time": null, "description": "<p>The <strong>EPFL Latsis Symposium 2026<em>: “Decoding the Cell: Modeling, Predicting, and Engineering Cellular States”</em></strong> will be held on <strong>October 29-30, 2026</strong>, at the <strong>Olympic Museum in Lausanne</strong>.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis international gathering will bring together leading scientists in single-cell analysis, computational modeling, and cellular engineering to explore how recent breakthroughs in multi-omics technologies, predictive algorithms, and synthetic biology are reshaping our understanding of cellular function.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThrough interdisciplinary talks and discussions, the symposium will spotlight advances in single-cell multi-modal data integration, predictive modeling of cell identity and behavior, and the engineering of synthetic cell states.
