Physical and numerical model studies of the Martigny bend as part of 3rd correction of the Rhone River

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Stéphanie Joëlle André, Jean-Noël Saugy

The 3rd correction of the Rhone River (R3) is the largest flood protection project in Switzerland so far. Covering a length of 162 km, it aims to protect some 100,000 people and prevent flood damages, which could raise up to 10 billion CHF for major events ...

Methods and apparatus for three-dimensional fabrication by tomographic back projections

Christophe Moser, Paul Delrot, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie

A method for producing a three-dimensional object comprising computing a sequence of back-projections describing the three-dimensional object to be formed from different orientation angles of said object, defining a sequence of patterns of light using said ...

Fast and ultrafast electron microscopies for skyrmions and plasmonics

Gabriele Berruto

In recent years, topology gained a central role in physics. We learnt that energetics could be often explained better by classes of objects defined by having qualitative differences. In today's jargon, we say they are topologically distinct. The process of ...

Training Algorithms for Multiple Object Tracking

Andrii Maksai

Multiple object tracking is a crucial Computer Vision Task. It aims at locating objects of interest in the image sequences, maintaining their identities, and identifying their trajectories over time. A large portion of current research focuses on tracking ...

Within One’s Grasp: Constructing the Weather-Clock

Ion-Gabriel Mihailescu

Christopher Wren imagined and designed a weather-clock which could register the traces of multiple meteorological instruments (barometer, thermometer, rain gauge, hygrometer etc.). Wren presented his machine on different occasions, under different forms: v ...

HOUSE 1 Protostructure: Enhancement of Spatial Imagination and Craftsmanship Between the Digital and the Analogical

Dieter Dietz, Julien Lafontaine Carboni, Agathe Claire Estelle Mignon, Darío Negueruela Del Castillo

Conceived around the concept of protostructure, HOUSE 1 deploys a strategy to answer a daring but simple question: How could we design a house between almost 300 people? The unique pedagogical framework of ALICE, first year Architectural Design course, pro ...

Micropipette calibration by differential pressure measurements

Philippe Renaud, David Vincent Bonzon

The pipetting of small volumes, typically ranging between a few and one thousand microliters (mu l), is widely used in many laboratories and essentially relies on air displacement to aspirate and dispense the liquid contained in a small plastic tip. While ...

Drone Shadow Tracking

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Ruofan Zhou

Aerial videos taken by a drone not too far above the surface may contain the drone's shadow projected on the scene. This deteriorates the aesthetic quality of videos. With the presence of other shadows, shadow removal cannot be directly applied, and the sh ...

MATHICSE Technical Report : A minimal stabilization procedure for isogeometric methods on trimmed geometries

Annalisa Buffa, Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Riccardo Puppi

Trimming is a common operation in CAD, and, in its simplest formulation, consists in removing superfluous parts from a geometric entity described via splines (a spline patch). After trimming the geometric description of the patch remains unchanged, but the ...

Supercritical water anomalies in the vicinity of the Widom line

Christian Ludwig

Supercritical water is used in a variety of chemical and industrial applications. As a consequence, a detailed knowledge of the structure-properties correlations is of uttermost importance. Although supercritical water was considered as a homogeneous fluid ...
