We report experimental results related to the dam-break problem for viscoplastic fluids. Using image processing techniques, we were able to accurately reconstruct the free-surface evolution of fixed volumes of fluid suddenly released a plane. We used Carbo ...
Since late April, 2009, a novel influenza virus A (H1N1), generally referred to as the "swine flu," has spread around the globe and infected hundreds of thousands of people. During the first few days after the initial outbreak in Mexico, extensive media co ...
Transactional memory (TM) is expected to become a widely used parallel programming paradigm for multi-core architectures. To reach this goal, we need tools that do not only help develop TMs, but also test them and evaluate them on a wide range of workloads ...
We have investigated the motion of a single optically trapped colloidal particle close to a limiting wall at time scales where the inertia of the surrounding fluid plays a significant role. The velocity autocorrelation function exhibits a complex interplay ...
In this contribution, we study the notion of affine invariance (specifically, invariance to the shifting, scaling, and rotation of the coordinate system) as a starting point for the development of mathematical tools and approaches useful in the characteriz ...
Complex tasting divalent salts (CTDS) are present in our daily diet, contributing to multiple poorly understood taste sensations. CTDS evoking metallic, bitter, salty, and astringent sensations include the divalent salts of iron, zinc, copper, and magnesiu ...
Functional Dependency (FD) has been extensively studied in database theory. Most recently there have been some works investigating the implications of extending Description Logics with functional dependencies. In particular the OWL ontology language offers ...
Mixed ionic–electronic conducting La0:5Sr0:5 Fe1 xBxO3 δ (B: Al, Cr, Zr, Ga, Ti, Sn, Ta, V, Mg, and In with x=0, 0.1, 0.2) perovskite materials were produced via solid-state synthesis. In order to study the effect of Bsite substitution on the expansion beh ...
Urine source separation (NoMix technology) is a promising innovation in wastewater management. To improve and further develop NoMix technology, it has been implemented in four Swiss households and at our research institute (Eawag). We conducted measurement ...
Structural Health Monitoring (SMH) has the potential to provide reliable, quantitative data on the real condition of structures. Early detection of damage or deterioration can enable preventive repair and reduce maintenance costs. Although obtaining data f ...
