The digital society requires the acquisition of skills related to computer sciences like computational thinking or competences in coding. Also transversal competences like communication, collaboration and creativity are increasingly important. Educational ...
This goal of this paper is the characterisation of surface roughness of 3D object scanned via micro CT. The idea is to extract the fractal dimension D of a 3D cloud of points. This project follows the work of a previous student project: Characterisation of ...
The goal of this project was to work on room occupancy and to provide solutions and ideas on how to detect if a room is occupied or not using generic and non expensive sensors. This is motivated by the fact that buildings account for 50% of the total energ ...
The Kunsthal in Rotterdam is a key work in the oeuvre of OMA/Rem Koolhaas that marks the threshold between the firmâs architectural production of the decades before and after 1990. This doctoral thesis aims at a deeper and comprehensive understanding of ...
In this study, we investigated an interdisciplinary project-based learning program. Students were confronted with interdisciplinary challenges in the form of complex and authentic problems, like building a racing car or making a mobile laboratory for genet ...
Due to the growing pressure of digitization and open access demands, cultural institutions are increasingly presenting their collections in digital space. Dealing with this constantly growing amount of data poses a major challenge, especially with regard t ...
With the 2010/31/EU directive, all new buildings shall be nearly zero-energy buildings (nZEB) from 2020 onward, with the aim of strongly reducing the energy consumption related to the building sector. To achieve this goal, it is not sufficient to focus on ...
The objective of this project is the seismic retrofit of an existent steel structure with buckling restrained braces (BRBs), and the proposition of a possible heightening. The structure that will be analysed is the GC building on the EPFL campus, in Ecuble ...
engineering has remained very traditional. The advances made in the fields of representation and visualisation, and in particular the progress made in virtual reality, lead us to wonder what added value this technology can bring to the world of constructio ...
Open access to research data is increasingly important for accelerating research. Grant authorities therefore request detailed plans for how data is managed in the projects they finance. We have recently developed such a plan for the EU H2020 BIG-MAP proje ...
