Heterotopias and the History of Spaces
In this essay Georges Teyssot explores Michel Foucault’s notion of heterotopia as applied to architecture and its implications in terms of language, governance, and space. This analytical approach marked a significant shift in the late 1970s, redirecting a ...
2024Towards mainstreaming of shared spaces as a basis for sustainable wellbeing for all
Like other rich countries, Switzerland is using energy and material at a per-capita rate far above the world average, contributing to multiple crises of climate, biodiversity, pollution, and numerous factors of human wellbeing, especially health, inequalit ...
Lulu Press2023MultiModN- Multimodal, Multi-Task, Interpretable Modular Networks
Martin Jaggi, Mary-Anne Hartley, Vinitra Swamy, Jibril Albachir Frej, Thierry Bossy, Thijs Vogels, Malika Satayeva
Predicting multiple real-world tasks in a single model often requires a particularly diverse feature space. Multimodal (MM) models aim to extract the synergistic predictive potential of multiple data types to create a shared feature space with aligned sema ...
2023An adaptive space-time algorithm for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations
A space-time adaptive algorithm is presented to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Time discretization is performed with the BDF2 method while continuous, piecewise linear anisotropic finite elements are used for the space discretization. Th ...
San Diego2023Radiation Hardness Study of Single-Photon Avalanche Diode for Space and High Energy Physics Applications
Edoardo Charbon, Emanuele Ripiccini, Ming-Lo Wu, Ekin Kizilkan, Pouyan Keshavarzian, Francesco Gramuglia, Kazuhiro Morimoto, Carlo Alberto Fenoglio
The radiation hardness of 180 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) and 55 nm bipolar-CMOS-double-diffused MOS single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) is studied using 10 MeV and 100 MeV protons up to a displacement damage dose of 1 PeV/g. It is ...
MDPI2022Home, Spatial Familiarity And Routines In Mobility Behaviours
Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss
This research explores the unreasoned influences of locational behaviour – i.e. locational habits – in Activity- Travel-Behaviour (ATB). In particular, the interrelations between Activity Space characteristics and mobility patterns. In a wider research eff ...
2021Intensifying space activity calls for increased scrutiny of risks
As the pace of space activities accelerates and societies become more reliant on space-based systems, the associated risks deserve more attention. Satellites form a critical infrastructure on which military, civil and commercial entities rely. The services ...
International Risk Governance Center2021Multi-day mobility motifs: method and applications
Marc-Edouard Baptiste Grégoire Schultheiss, Janody Pougala, Marija Kukic
The sustainable turn in urban territories is manifold and must not rely solely on technologies to address energy efficiency. This research proposes a set of metrics as a preliminary work to further study day-to-day variability in activity-travel behaviors. ...
2021Bootstrapping Heisenberg magnets and their cubic instability
We study the critical O(3) model using the numerical conformal bootstrap. In particular, we use a recently developed cutting-surface algorithm to efficiently map out the allowed space of conformal field theory data from correlators involving the leading O( ...
