The typology of the underground waters of the flyschs of the Niesen and Gurnigel tectonic nappes form part of the AQUITYP project which has been worked on by the geology laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne since 1981. Its pr ...
This research investigates new methods of designing folded plate structures that can be built with cross-laminated timber panels. Folded plate structures are attractive to both architects and engineers for their structural, spatial, and plastic qualities. ...
Deep geological repositories in clay formations are a promising option to ensure the long-term isolation of nuclear waste from the population and the environment. In Switzerland, the Opalinus Clay (OPA) formation is a shale whose favorable barrier properti ...
Opalinus clay has been widely studied in the context of deep geological disposal. Its favourable hydro-mechanical properties made it a suitable material for the storage of nuclear waste. But the presence of tectonic systems within the clay formation arise ...
This research proposes new methods to generate rapidly complex folded plate structures that can be built with cross laminated timber panels. Composition and dimensions of these panels as well as the possibility to mill them by Computer Numerically Controll ...
Seismological observations highlighted that earthquakes are often followed by changes in elastic properties around the fault zone. Here, we studied the origin of these variations using stick-slip experiments on saw-cut granite samples presenting different ...
