Wireless communication relies on high-frequency signal transmission between communication nodes. The signals are at the same time the message and the infrastructure for communication. Questioning the current wireless signals space occupancy in a playful wa ...
Les performances d’une installation de digestion doivent pouvoir être estimées à l’aide de tests rapides et de coûts raisonnables, qui permettront de prédire les recettes en énergie de l’installation, et donc son équilibre financier. Ce projet a pour but d ...
Harvesting the numerous small scale hydroelectric potential is a way to increase the sustainable hydraulic energy production in developed countries. The condition to meet economical profitability with pico power stations - below 25 kW - is to minimize the ...
We consider the problem of dispatching WindFarm (WF) power demand to individual Wind Turbines (WT) with the goal of minimizing mechanical stresses. We assume wind is strong enough to let each WTs to produce the required power and propose different closed-l ...
This paper describes two research projects in the field of interactive architecture, both examples of experience catalysts; Settings which allow new insights in the aesthetic constitution and perception of environments. This term can be thought of as somew ...
L'objectif de ce travail est d’identifier les solutions réalisables pour la récupération de chaleur des eaux usées du Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV). Deux thèmes seront plus particulièrement abordés par cette étude : (a) une comparaison de ...
L'étude de variantes consiste à analyser différentes possibilités d'équipement entre les deux variantes de projet considérées, à savoir l'installation d'une installation automatique de déverglaçage (IAD) et le service hivernal classique.(...) Le choix de d ...
En architecture, l’invention peut être un objectif, mais l’utilisation d’éléments déjà fabriqués est permanente et inévitable. Il semble plausible d’avancer que certains architectes s’intéressent de près aux objets ready-made, orientant leurs réflexions et ...
This thesis study investigates the architectural potential of digital information, using case studies and prototypes to explore the integration of dynamic information in the architectural environment. Responsive architecture, a design field that has arisen ...
IceTop, the surface component of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole, is an air shower array with an area of 1 km(2). The detector allows a detailed exploration of the mass composition of primary cosmic rays in the energy range from about 10 ...
