A numerical study was conducted to investigate the influence of tides on the fate of terrestrially-derived BTEX discharging through an unconfined aquifer to coastal waters. Previous studies have revealed that tide-induced seawater circulations create an ac ...
In the spring term 2008 the ALICE pavilion team designed Overflow as a large-scale archi-tectonic artifact interacting with the tidal movements at the Thames River. Conceived as a flexible post-tensioned polystyrene structure, fastened along the embankment ...
Wave and tide are important forcing factors that typically co-exist in coastal environments. A numerical study was conducted to investigate individual and combined effects of these forces on flow and mixing processes in a near-shore subterranean estuary. A ...
Flankers can strongly deteriorate performance on a visual target (crowding). For example, vernier offset discrimination is strongly affected by neighboring flankers. Interestingly, performance for longer and shorter flankers is better than performance for ...
Numerical investigations covering all the physical processes occurring in the surf and swash zones, including the cross-shore and longshore flows, have not been fully developed, although considerable work in 2D has appeared in recent years. However, given ...
Premier bilan des activités de la bibliothèque de l'EPFL au Rolex Learning Center après son ouverture le 22 février 2010. Présentation de la méthode et des étapes de création de la bibliothèque et de constitution de la nouvelle équipe. Analyse des conditio ...
The relationship between the total water volume entering a lagoon during a characteristic tidal cycle (i.e., the prism) and the size of its inlet is well established empirically since the classic work of O'Brien and Jarrett widely cited in the geomorphic a ...
Pamphlet Vol. 03 presents Overflow, a large-scale architectonic artifact interacting with the tidal movements at the Thames River in London. This installation was designed by the ALICE pavilion team and has been erected in June 2008 at the London Festival ...
Intertidal wetlands are complex hydrological systems characterized by strong, dynamic interactions between coastal surface water and groundwater, driven particularly by tides. We simulated such interactions with a focus on three-dimensional, variably satur ...
We verify the broad applicability of tidal prism cross-sectional area relationships, originally proposed to relate the total water volume entering a lagoon during a characteristic tidal cycle (the tidal prism) to the size of its inlet, to arbitrary shelter ...
