• The weight spectrum of two families of Reed-Muller codes 

      Carlet, Claude Michael; Solé, Patrick (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      We determine the weight spectra of the Reed-Muller codes RM (m− 3, m) for m ≥ 6 and RM (m − 4, m) for m ≥ 8. The technique used is induction on m, using that the sum of two weights in RM (r −1, m−1) is a weight in RM (r, ...

    • Well-posedness Issues for Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations Appearing in the Modeling of Long Water Waves 

      Teyekpiti, Vincent (Doctoral thesis, 2018-12-18)
      Modelling of wave motion in a fluid is usually based on classical systems which are obtained by the hypotheses that the flow is irrotational and the bottom is even. In such a context, the influence of vorticity is entirely ...

    • Wetting of porous thin films exhibiting large contact angles 

      Helseth, Lars Egil; Greve, Martin Møller (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Porous solid films that promote large apparent contact angles are interesting systems since their wetting properties are dependent on both the surface structure and water penetration into the film. In this study, a ...
