Uranium (U) contamination of ground and surface waters poses an acute hazard on the ecosystem and human health. Since the discovery of microbial U(VI) reduction, U bioremediation has been explored as a promising and cost-effective method compared to tradit ...
Precisely estimating a robot’s pose in a prior, global map is a fundamental capability for mobile robotics, e.g., autonomous driving or exploration in disaster zones. This task, however, remains challenging in unstructured, dynamic environments, where loca ...
In the context of nuclear waste disposal in clay formations, laboratory and in situ simulation experiments were performed to study at reduced scale the Excavation Damaged Zone (EDZ) around tunnels in the indurated Opalinus Clay at Mont Terri, Switzerland. ...
The current investigation, conducted in the general framework of the MUSE program ("MUltiplication avec une Source Externe"), considers the representativity of a specific configuration of its fourth phase (M4SC2), which is driven by an external D(d,n)He3 o ...
Novel micro-structured string-reactor designed as catalytically active wires placed in parallel into a tube was developed. The small diam. of the channels (.apprx.100 mm) leads to a short radial diffusion time, a narrow residence time distribution, and a l ...
A large variety of plasma conditions has been created in TCV (Tokamak a Configuration Variable, B-T < 1.5 T, R-0 = 0.88 m, a < 0.25 m). They include limited and diverted discharges with elongations in the range 1-2.58, triangularities between -0.7 and 1 as ...
In the context of nuclear waste disposal in clay formations, laboratory experiments were performed to study at reduced scale the Excavation Damaged Zone (EDZ) induced by the construction of galleries in the Boom Clay formation. For this purpose, thick-wall ...
