Low-cost LTCC-based sensors for low force ranges

Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Yannick Sébastien Fournier, Nicolas Craquelin

We have designed and fabricated a low-range (ca. 100 mN) thick-film piezoresistive force sensor with a cantilever beam fabricated in LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic). The beam was soldered onto a standard thick-film 25.4 x 12.7 mm signal conditionin ...

Identification of mechanisms for landslide type initiation of debris flows

Lyesse Laloui, Laurent Vulliet, Georg Klubertanz

The modelling of debris flow initiation in slopes is addressed in this paper. First, possible factors governing debris flow initiation are established. Then, a coupled hydro-mechanical model for deformable porous media with two pore fluids that is used to ...

A high-performance distributed hash table for peer-to-peer information retrieval

Fabius Klemm

This thesis describes our research results in the context of peer-to-peer information retrieval (P2P-IR). One goal in P2P-IR is to build a search engine for the World Wide Web (WWW) that runs on up to hundreds of thousands or even millions computers distri ...

Computer-aided development of stress fields for the analysis of structural concrete

Aurelio Muttoni, Olivier Burdet, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

The stress field method is a technique based on the lower-bound theorem of plasticity that can be used for dimensioning, detailing and checking of structural concrete elements. Its use has been traditionally associated with the assumption of simplified (ri ...

Autonomic Execution of Web Service Compositions

Thomas Heinis

An increasing amount of Web services are being implemented using process management tools and languages (BPML, BPEL, etc.). The main advantage of processes is that designers can express complex business conversations at a high level of abstraction, even re ...
