Thermo-hydro-mechanical behavior of energy barrettes: Field experiments and numerical simulations

Lyesse Laloui, Elena Ravera, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Over the past two decades, the thermo-hydro-mechanical behavior of earth-contact structures such as piles, walls, slabs, and tunnels, which simultaneously provide structural support and energy supply, has been studied through various field experiments and ...

Energy geotechnology: A new era for geotechnical engineering practice

Lyesse Laloui, Melis Sütman

Energy geotechnology provides low carbon, cost-effective and local energy solu-tions to structures and infrastructures, which opens a new era for the geotechnical engineering practice, by extending the conventional role of structural design to the ...

Analysis of barrette foundations subjected to mechanical and thermal loads

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the use of rectangular barrette foundations for the structural support and energy supply of tall buildings when circular piles become inefficient or uneconomical. In such applications, so-called energy ...

European Economic impacts of cutting energy imports from Russia: A computable general equilibrium analysis

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

The recent economic sanctions against Russia can jeopardise the sustainability of the European Union's (EU) energy supply. Despite the EU's strong commitment to stringent abatement targets, fossil fuels still play a significant role in the EU energy policy ...

Autonomous oil flow generated by self-oscillating polymer gels

Vito Cacucciolo

The previously reported gel and polymer actuators require external inputs, such as batteries, circuits, electronic circuits, etc., compared with autonomous motions produced by the living organisms. To realize the spontaneous motions, here, we propose to in ...

The institutional challenges of scaling-up housing retrofit: the Swiss cities of Basel and Sion

Eghbal Arian Mahzouni

Purpose This paper aims to discuss the nexus between two societal (sub) systems of housing and energy supply to shed new light on the key institutional barriers to socio-technical energy transition in the built environment. The key research question is to ...

The Effect of European Integration on Swiss Energy Policy and Governance

Matthias Finger, Paul Adrianus Van Baal

The unique “Swiss way” of association with the European Union (EU) has received increasing attention in light of recent events such as Brexit as it is based on sectoral agreements without an overarching institutional framework. As such, Europeanization of ...
