The Swiss utility Kraftwerke Oberhasli AG (KWO) currently implements "KWO plus", an upgrading program involving a large number of economical and ecological improvements of their hydropower schemes. A major project, the modification of the Handeck 2 power p ...
Organic semiconductors technology has only recently started to merge with biology and medicine, especially in the field of polymeric coatings as protective layers for artificial devices. Very few examples, however, report the use of semiconducting polymers ...

We are examining techniques for manipulation of microfabricated elements using arrays of bacteria as microactuators. Flagellated Serratia marcescens bacteria are attached to microstructures using a blotting technique that creates a bacterial monolayer carp ...
This thesis presents three steps toward a more precise modeling of climate policies using hybrid models. Specific hybrid models have been devised and used to analyze different post-Kyoto Swiss climate policies. Chapter 1 presents a rather simple hybrid mod ...
This paper proposes an instrumented handle with multimodal augmented haptic feedback, which can be integrated into a conventional white cane to extend the haptic exploration range of visually impaired users. The information extracted from the environment t ...
We demonstrate hybrid, solid-liquid photodiodes, using semiconducting conjugated polymers as active materials and ionic liquids as unconventional cathodes (water, saline solutions, physiological buffers, cell-culturing media). We give a complete opto-elect ...
Virtual prototyping has become an important part during the product development process. The common way to let a user interact with the virtual prototype is the use of a three dimensional virtual mannequin that is controlled by the user. These human figure ...
Nowadays, more and more electrical motors are being used in mobile applications, such as hybrid cars for the automotive sector or even in aeronautics applications. A typical example is the solar impulse airplane which is propelled with four electrical moto ...
A 20 MW/5 GHz lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) system was initially due to be commissioned and used for the second mission of ITER, i.e. the Q = 5 steady state target. Though not part of the currently planned procurement phase, it is now under considerati ...
