The interface control domain decomposition (ICDD) method of Discacciati, Gervasio, and Quarteroni [SIAM J. Control Optim., 51 (2013), pp. 3434-3458, doi:10.1137/120890764; J. Coupled Syst. Multiscale Dyn., 1 (2013), pp. 372-392, doi:10.1166/jcsmd.2013.1026 ...
Anisotropic fabric and volumetric response to suction changes represent two main features of shales, which are involved in several engineering applications. However, a comprehensive understanding of the interaction between these two aspects is still missin ...
In this review, we will try to summarize the results that we have obtained on the measurement of polariton interactions. We will describe here the samples, the experimental systems and some of the important results. We will also give a few highlights on th ...
This thesis details the synthesis and characterization of dinuclear clathrochelates functionalized with groups suitable for supramolecular applications. Their successful incorporation into self-assembled discrete and polymeric structures is related. These ...
Transition-metal catalyzed C-H functionalizations have impacted and changed synthetic approaches towards the construction of relevant complex molecules, comprising natural products, active pharmaceutical ingredients, and organic materials. This thesis desc ...
A new team of researchers at EPFL is taking an 'anti-disciplinary' approach to creating optical devices. These devices take advantage of the synergy in tuning both nano- and bio-material properties, coupling 'the advantages of two growing, albeit tradition ...
Iron catalysis is attractive for organic synthesis because iron is inexpensive, abundant, and non-toxic. To control the activity and stability of an iron center, a large number of iron pincer complexes have been synthesized. Many such complexes exhibit exc ...
A gram-scale enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-peganumine A was accomplished in 7 steps from commercially available 6-methoxytryptamine. Key steps included (a) a Liebeskind−Srogl cross-coupling; (b) a one-pot construction of the tetracyclic skeleton ...
We propose a new decentralized control scheme for DC Islanded microGrids (ImGs) composed by several Distributed Generation Units (DGUs) with a general interconnection topol- ogy. Each local controller regulates to a reference value the voltage of the point ...
SmB6 is a mixed valence Kondo system resulting from the hybridization between localized f electrons and delocalized d electrons. We have investigated its out-of-equilibrium electron dynamics by means of time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. ...
