This thesis is developed as part of the final year project that must be completed to obtain the MCs degree in Civil Engineering at EPFL. It follows up the pre-study project carried out during the last semester of the course. The environmental crisis that o ...
Chemical gas dispersion poses considerable threat to humans, animals and the environment. The research areas of gas source localization and gas distribution mapping aim to localize the source of gas leaks and map the gas plume respectively, in order to hel ...
The energy integration of industrial complexes and urban agglomerations has many benefits in terms of rational energy use and reduced environmental impact, especially during scenarios of supply chain uncertainty and volatile market prices. In fact, the div ...
The use of natural light in buildings can affect our physiological and psychological health and has comfort, behavioral, economic, and environmental consequences. ...
The "Carbon Peaking and Carbon Neutrality" strategy of China has accelerated the process of industrial structure transformation of global energy-saving and environmental protection. With the international efforts to cope with climate change and the growing ...
Atmospheric aerosols have significant effects on the climate and on human health. New particle formation (NPF) is globally an important source of aerosols but its relevance especially towards aerosol mass loadings in highly polluted regions is still contro ...
Among natural disasters, seismic activity which can cause earthquakes is a serious risk for human activities and most importantly their lives. Seismic risk assessment requires knowledge to evaluate existing buildings and their expected response against ear ...
Subsurface chlorophyll maxima layers (SCML) are ubiquitous features of stratified aquatic systems. Availability of the micronutrient iron is known to influence marine SCML, but iron has not been explored in detail as a factor in the development of freshwat ...
A holistic approach, considering all the energy needs of a territory, should be adopted in the challenge of the energy transition. Synergies between the different end-use demand sectors must be developed, in order to optimize the efficient use of resources ...
In the present study, we present the aerosol optical properties and radiative forcing (RF) of the tropospheric and stratospheric smoke layers, observed by the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) satellite, during the ...
