Shear and steel-fibre reinforcement for the punching resistance of flat slabs at internal and edge columns
Reinforced concrete flat slabs consist of a continuous, thin concrete plate that rests on a grid of columns. The supporting surface of the columns is very small compared to the floor plan dimensions, leading to concentrations of shear forces near the colum ...
EPFL2024How roughness emerges on natural and engineered surfaces
Jean-François Molinari, Ramin Aghababaei
Roughness, defined as unevenness of material surfaces, plays an important role in determining how engineering components or natural objects interact with other bodies and their environment. The emergence of fractal roughness on natural and engineered surfa ...
SPRINGER HEIDELBERG2023Floating platform for a wind turbine
A floating platform for a wind turbine comprising a vertically arranged support; a toroidal body arranged horizontally and coaxially around said support; a plurality of connection elements which extends radially to connect the support to the toroidal body, ...
2023Caching and Neutrality
Pavlos Nikolopoulos, Muhammad Abdullah
We are used to defining network neutrality as absence of traffic differentiation, like policing or shaping. These mechanisms, however, are often not what determines end-users’ quality of experience (QoE). Most content today is accessed through edge caches, ...
ACM Association for Computing Machinery2023The fundamental relation between electrohelicity and molecular optical activity
Electrohelicity arises in molecules such as allene and spiropentadiene when their symmetry is reduced and helical frontier molecular orbitals (MOs) appear. Such molecules are optically active and electrohelicity has been suggested as a possible design prin ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2023Development of a road bridge digital twin for simulating traffic loadings
The bridge over the Venoge, built in 1966 and extended in 1997, is a composite bridge located on the highway between Lausanne and Geneva. The aim of this thesis will be to develop a digital twin of this bridge, which consist of a digital representation as ...
2022Detailed Placement for Dedicated LUT-Level FPGA Interconnect
Paolo Ienne, Grace Zgheib, Stefan Nikolic
In this work, we develop timing-driven CAD support for FPGA architectures with direct connections between LUTs. We do so by proposing an efficient ILP-based detailed placer, which moves a carefully selected subset of LUTs from their original positions, so ...
ASSOC COMPUTING MACHINERY2022State of the Art on Computational Design of Assemblies with Rigid Parts
An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Designing assemblies is a non-trivial task as a slight local modification on a part's geometry or its joining method could have a global impact on ...

Computer Graphics Forum2021Public Strategies for Artificial Intelligence: Which Value Drivers?
Marie-Valentine Renée Agnès Florin, Gianluigi Viscusi
We question the values that inform the artificial intelligence (AI) strategies developed by governments and institutions at the global level. In particular, we investigate the connection between governments? and institutions? fundamental values, second-ord ...
