High power mm-wave loss measurements of ITER ex-vessel waveguide components at the FALCON test facility at the Swiss Plasma Center
Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Anastasia Xydou
Many future fusion devices will rely heavily, if not solely, on electron cyclotron (EC) heating subsystems to provide bulk heating, instability control (neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) stabilization), and thermal instability control. Efficient use of the i ...
E D P SCIENCES2023Geographic clusters of objectively measured physical activity and the characteristics of their built environment in a Swiss urban area
Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous, Marco André Vieira Ruas, Cédric Gubelmann
Introduction Evidence suggests that the built environment can influence the intensity of physical activity. However, despite the importance of the geographic context, most of the studies do not consider the spatial framework of this association. We aimed t ...
PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE2022Vulnérabilité sismique à grande échelle. Typologie typique de bâtiments lausannois
Seismic assessment of existing buildings is a very important area of research to predict the impact of an earthquake on an area. Over the years, unreinforced masonry buildings have shown to be highly vulnerable to seismic risk. Although Switzerland is cons ...
2020Micropollutants in Large Lakes: From Potential Pollution to Risk Assessments
David Andrew Barry, Luca Rossi, Florence Bonvin, Neil Graham
This book is divided into six additional chapters: Chapter 2 deals with the agricultural source of micropollutants; Chapter 3 with the urban source of micropollutants; Chapter 4 with lake circulation; Chapter 5 with the influence of a wastewater treatment ...
CRC Press & EPFL Press2018Frequent walkers: from healthy individual behaviours to sustainable mobility futures
Walking is often taken for granted or considered as an ancillary activity. Little is known about the distribution of walking in contemporary populations, and even less about the few people who walk for an hour or more in public space on most days of the we ...
EPFL2018Gauging the highs: design and realization of a water sample campaign during high and low streamflow
How does the streamwater quality change during storm events, and how to characterize it? The purpose of this study is to investigate the evolution of major ions in streamwater from base ow to storm ux. Regular manual sampling and automated sampling campaig ...
2017Méthodologie multicritère d'aide à la décision pour le renouvellement urbain à l'échelle du quartier
The present work develops a new methodology for assessing urban renewal scenarios at the neighborhood scale. Entitled URBIUS, this methodology seeks to meet the needs of municipalities in terms of planning for the development of their urban built fabric. I ...
EPFL2016Simulated Annealing in Optimization of Energy Production in a Water Supply Network
Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Irene Almeida Samora
In water supply systems, the potential exists for micro-hydropower that uses the pressure excess in the networks to produce electricity. However, because urban drinking water networks are complex systems in which flows and pressure vary constantly, identif ...
Springer Verlag2016Parsimonious hydrological modelling in urban areas: Towards integrated modelling
David Andrew Barry, Luca Rossi, Sylvain Coutu, Dario Del Giudice
Most popular urban hydrological model used in research and engineering (e.g. MOUSE, SWMM, MUSIC,P8) are spatially distributed with linknode drainage network. If some of them (e.g. PURPS, RUNQUAL, SLAMM, StormTac and WBM) treat the catchment in a lumped fas ...
International Water Association2012Seasonal variations of antibiotics measured in the environment from sales data analysis
Luca Rossi, Sylvain Coutu, Jonas Margot, Christa McArdell
Antibiotics are substances commonly consumed by the population under medical prescriptions. These compounds may reach the environment through human excretion as they are partially eliminated in WWTPs. The occurrence of antibiotics in the aquatic environmen ...
