Identifying contaminated sediment problems associated with urban stormwater discharges in lakes

Tom Hugo Antoine Benejam

Urban stormwater discharges during wet weather has always been a sensitive issue to deal with. By inducing combined sewer overflows, substantial impacts on receiving water are commonly feared. Aware of this problematic situation, the VSA already created th ...

Turning Relaxed Radix Balanced Vector from Theory into Practice for Scala Collections (Master Thesis)

Nicolas Alexander Stucki

The immutable Vector collection in the Scala library offers nearly constant-time random access reads thanks to its underlying wide tree data structure. Furthermore, it provides amortized constant time sequential read, update, append and prepend operations ...

River Flow 2014 - International Conference on Fluvial Hydraulics

Despite the mechanisms of reservoir sedimentation being well known for a long time, sustainable and preventive measures are rarely taken into consideration in the design of new reservoirs. To avoid operational problems of powerhouses, sedimentation is ofte ...

This is my master thesis done at PPL in Stanford under the supervision of Prof. Kunle Olukotun. It improved LMS, a framework for embedding DSLs (domain-specific languages) into Scala which features many general optimizations that can be used by any DSLs fo ...

Modelling of Surface Catalytic Reaction Systems using the Concept of Extents

Gas-solid catalytic reaction systems depend on a combination of several dynamic eects, such as mass transfer, chemisorption and surface reactions taking place simultaneously. In this master thesis, the extension of the method of extent-based model identica ...

Stabilized reduced basis method for parametrized advection-diffusion PDEs

Paolo Pacciarini

The aim of this master thesis is to study and develop a stabilized reduced basis method suitable for the approximation of the solution of parametrized advection-diffusion PDEs with high Péclet number, that is, roughly, the ratio between the advection coeff ...

This master thesis describes the development in the framework of Fluid- Structure Interaction (FSI) problems of an efficient and flexible technique treating the fluid-structure interface and mesh motion problems. The main idea is to build, through a new hi ...

Recently, two large independent genome-wide association studies have provided compelling evidence that polymorphisms at the phosphatidylinositol-binding clathrin assembly protein (PICALM) locus are linked to Alzheimer’s disease (AD). At the cellular level, ...

Développement d'un modèle précipitation-débit géomorphologique pour les zones tempérées : Application au bassin versant de la Chamberonne

Cédric Imfeld

The goal of this master thesis was to improve an existing rainfall-runoff model to better represent the dynamics of runoff generation at the catchment scale. The used model is a so-called geomorphological model, which is a spatially explicit hydrological m ...
