La contamination de l’environnement aquatique en Suisse par les (micro)-plastiques

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro

Bien que la pollution par les plastiques soit de mieux en mieux connue et fasse l’objet d’un nombre croissant de publications, les données concernant les eaux douces restent très limitées et morcelées. Cette problématique a été mise en évidence dès 2012 da ...

Non-invasive continuous monitoring of pro-oxidant effects of engineered nanoparticles on aquatic microorganisms

Olivier Martin, Paul Bowen, Christian Santschi, Volodymyr Koman, Nadia Rachel Von Moos

Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) are key drivers for the development of highly sophisticated new technologies. As all new attainments, the rapidly increasing used of ENMs raise concerns about their safety for the environment and humans. There is growing evi ...

Long-term design of FRP-PUR web-core sandwich structures in building construction

Thomas Keller, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Sonia Yanes Armas

The structural behavior of GFRP-polyurethane (PUR) web-core sandwich structures subjected to sustained loading was investigated. As a basis, a study of the mechanical behavior of rigid PUR foams used as core materials was conducted, with emphasis on creep. ...

On the debris-level origins of adhesive wear

Jean-François Molinari, Ramin Aghababaei, Derek Warner

Every contacting surface inevitably experiences wear. Predicting the exact amount of material loss due to wear relies on empirical data and cannot be obtained from any physical model. Here, we analyze and quantify wear at the most fundamental level, i.e., ...

Sports scheduling search space connectivity: A riffle shuffle driven approach

Dominique de Werra

The canonical method is widely used to build single round robin schedules for sports competitions. Certain properties of the canonical method may entrap local search procedures. In this paper, we study the connectivity of one of the most used neighborhood ...

High bi-atrial organization in patients with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation terminated within the left atrium

Jean-Marc Vesin, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

Sustained atrial fibrillation (AF) is maintained by sites displaying high dominant frequency (DF). In patients (pts) with long-standing persistent AF (LS-pAF), their spatial distribution and the presence of a left-to-right atrial DF gradient remain poorly ...

A scalable electro-magnetic communication system for underwater swarms

Felix Stephan Schill

Scalable, reliable underwater communication is still a major challenge limiting the deployment of large-scale cooperative underwater systems, such as swarms of AUVs, which generally rely on frequent updates from surrounding units for control and mission ob ...

Blackouts risk evaluation by Monte Carlo Simulation regarding cascading outages and system frequency deviation

Mokhtar Bozorg, Omid Alizadeh Mousavi

In this paper, a blackout risk assessment method is proposed considering the effects of cascading outages, the active power and frequency response of the system. Here, the Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) is used to analyze the risk of blackouts by generating ...
