Rational design of ionic compounds for electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide

Dmitry Vasilyev

Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide is one of the plausible approaches towards renewable energy carriers. When coupled with electricity, which can be provided by sustainable technologies, it becomes a method of high importance with potential value ...

Sparse Inverse Problems Over Measures: Equivalence Of The Conditional Gradient And Exchange Methods

Armin Eftekhari

We study an optimization program over nonnegative Borel measures that encourages sparsity in its solution. Efficient solvers for this program are in increasing demand, as it arises when learning from data generated by a "continuum-of-subspaces" model, a re ...

Execution Trace Graph of Dataflow Process Networks

Marco Mattavelli, Simone Casale Brunet

The paper introduces and specifies a formalism that provides complete representations of dataflow process network (DPN) program executions, by means of directed acyclic graphs. Such graphs, also known as execution trace graphs (ETG), are composed of nodes ...

Thermo-mechanical performance of energy pile groups

Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Employing geostructures as structural supports and geomaterials as reservoirs for the extraction and storage of heat represent effective means to meet human activity needs since ancient times. This doctoral thesis focuses on the thermo-mechanical behaviour ...

A Computational Approach for the Design of Epidural Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation Strategies to Enable Locomotion after Spinal Cord Injury

Emanuele Formento

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major cause of paralysis with currently no effective treatment. Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbar spinal cord has been shown to restore locomotion in animal models of SCI, but has not yet reached the same lev ...

Improved Analytical Model of Hyperelastic Magnetic Membrane

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Louis Antoine Masson, Guillaume Paul-André Burnand, Cécile Gisèle Aimée Jeannine Cuchet

This paper proposes an analysis of multi-factor fabrications of magnetic membranes. In order to acquire some knowledge about the influence of fabrication factors, an analysis is performed using a Design of Experiment (DoE) methodology. The latter is applie ...

Mechanical form-finding of timber fabric structures

Seyed Sina Nabaei

How about fastening a knot? not with ropes... but with timber panels. Timber Fabric Structures (TFS) originate from such an inspiration. An architectural reinterpretation of fabric techniques (mainly braiding) using building scale timber panels to design ...

Limit of light coupling strength in solar cells

Christophe Ballif, Hans Peter Herzig, Franz-Josef Haug, Toralf Scharf, Ali Naqavi

We introduce a limit for the strength of coupling light into the modes of solar cells. This limit depends on both a cell’s thickness and its modal properties. For a cell with refractive index n and thickness d, we obtain a maximal coupling rate of $2c\sqrt ...
