Microorganisms are essential for life on Earth, performing key roles in numerous biological processes. Their influence extends across a wide spectrum, from human health and ecological balance to advancements in biotechnology and industrial applications. Th ...
Daylight has an undeniable value in various aspects of architectural design, ranging from energy efficiency and user comfort to our experience of space. Even though there is substantial evidence of the positive effects of daylight access on occupants, we h ...
Motivated by the increasing availability and quality of miniaturized sensors, computers, and wireless communication devices arid given their enormous potential, the use of wireless sensor networks (WSN) has become widespread. Because in many applications o ...
Dense and distributed tactile sensors are critical for robots to achieve human-like manipulation skills. Soft robotic sensors are a potential technological solution to obtain the required high dimensional sensory information unobtrusively. However, the des ...

We prove a sharp quantitative version of the Faber–Krahn inequality for the short-time Fourier transform (STFT). To do so, we consider a deficit which measures by how much the STFT of a function fails to be optimally concentrated on an arbitrary set of pos ...
At the core of the contribution of this dissertation there is an augmented reality (AR) environment, StaticAR, that supports the process of learning the fundamentals of statics in vocational classrooms, particularly in carpentry ones. Vocational apprentice ...
Intuitively, consciousness seems to be a continuous stream of percepts. Here, contrary to intuition, we show evidence for discrete consciousness, occurring only at certain moments of time. We presented a Vernier followed by a sequence of flanking lines on ...
What are the pressing questions in architecture – in teaching, research and practice? Based on their many years of experience, professors Inès Lamunière and Laurent Stalder come together in five meetings to search for answers. They describe an approach to ...
We study the problem of finding a characterization for the channel that results when a queue is operated under multiple access conditions. In such systems, the mechanism by which different sources gain access to the channel plays a fundamental role in defi ...
This paper examines the effects of political pressure groups (lobbies) on the size and stability of international climate agreements. We consider two types of lobbies, industry and environmentalists. We show the potential effects of lobbying using the STAb ...
