Nowadays many consumer electronic devices are using small engines (micromotors). Thanks to technological innovation, the components can be imbedded into numerous portable systems. The key factors for a nomadic integration are: reduction of power consumptio ...
The city plays a major role in the dissemination of these technologies. Technological innovation is both the cause and effect of urban development, playing a decisive role in the structuring of cities but also representing a means of fulfilling emerging ne ...
Although research and development (R&D) networks influence the innovation performance of their members, firms may not be fully aware of the scope of their network. In particular, due to cost reasons, they may not be fully informed of their “indirect ties”, ...
The research undertaken in the EPFL’s Timber Construction Laboratory aims both to question in depth the relationship between engineering sciences and architectural conception and to expose new facets of this relationship. The IBOIS is firmly integrated in ...
Centred on research and development in Solar Energy Applications to the Built Environment, the International Conference CISBAT 2007, organised every other year on the campus of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne/Switzerland, once ...
The multifunctional use of FRP composites offers the potential to contribute to the emergence of a new generation of lightweight engineering structures for an innovative infrastructure that meets the challenges with which today's construction industry is f ...

This poster integrates the results of four different modules of the ClimPol project (Climate Policy Making for Enhanced Technological and Institutional Innovations). These modules deal with climate change mitigation behavior of individuals (ClimPol module ...
A large variety of organisational forms for collaboration have emerged during the last years as a result of the many socio-economic challenges faced by the society and enabled by the new ICT developments. As a result, in both developed and developing count ...
Innovative mixing principles in bioreactors, for example using the rocking of a platform to induce a backwards and forwards 'wave' , or using orbital shaking to generate a 'wave' that runs round in a cylindrical container, have proved to be successful for ...
This paper examines the effects of firm-level innovation in carbon-abatement technologies on optimal cap-and-trade schemes with and without price controls. We characterize optimal cap-and-trade regulation with a price cap and a price floor, and compare it ...
