The Center for Artificial Muscle (CAM) is in the process of designing a new type of Vascular Assist Device (VAD) that uses the mechanical and electrical properties of Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs). The main challenges with these actuators are that ...
Rances in the north of Vaud suffered last year from the effects of large soil movement. Rances became the new playground where MeduSoil technology was tested as a remediation for this type of events. This is a decisive new step, after the technology has be ...

Grippers, currently used in Industry, are not suited for clean room application. Thus, a novel type of smart gripper is being designed using Shape Memory Alloys (SMA). In the development of this Smart Gripper, the modelling of the material is quite critica ...
The common placement of thermostats in offices might not reflect the actual thermal environment around occupants and influence the energy use. In this research, it is questioned which type of thermostat at which location better represents the conditions in ...
Distinct to type-I Weyl semimetals (WSMs) that host quasiparticles described by the Weyl equation, the energy dispersion of quasiparticles in type-II WSMs violates Lorentz invariance and the Weyl cones in the momentum space are tilted. Since it was propose ...
Kato introduced the exotic nilpotent cone to be a substitute for the ordinary nilpotent cone of type C with cleaner properties. Here we describe the irreducible components of exotic Springer fibres (the fibres of the resolution of the exotic nilpotent cone ...
Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide is one of the plausible approaches towards renewable energy carriers. When coupled with electricity, which can be provided by sustainable technologies, it becomes a method of high importance with potential value ...
This paper performs a comprehensive and comparative evaluation of the state of the art local features for the task of image based 3D reconstruction. The evaluated local features cover the recently developed ones by using powerful machine learning technique ...
We study the multitype contact process on Z(d) under the assumption that one of the types has a birth rate that is larger than that of the other type, and larger than the critical value of the standard contact process. We prove that, if initially present, ...
