The Quest for Stability of Perovskite Solar Cells: Understanding Degradation, Improving Lifetimes and Towards Experimental Standards

Konrad Domanski

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted a substantial interest owing to a very fast achievement of efficiencies >20 % within only several years of development. However, for any solar cell to become technologically viable, two additional milestones hav ...

In the last decades, travel demand models have progressed with tremendous development and are now routinely used to support planning and public policy decisions. However, active modes have often been overlooked and rarely considered as part of the solution ...

Climate-related changes of soil characteristics affect bacterial community composition and function of high altitude and latitude lakes

Hannes Markus Peter

Lakes at high altitude and latitude are typically unproductive ecosystems where external factors outweigh the relative importance of in-lake processes, making them ideal sentinels of climate change. Climate change is inducing upward vegetation shifts at hi ...

Living Without a Car

Dominic Villeneuve

This research explores the links between social exclusion, car dependence and public policies for members of non-motorized households who are potentially socially excluded. It is at the crossroads of urban sociology, public policy and transport geography. ...

In this work, we have developed a zero-dimensional vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) model which accounts for all modes of vanadium crossover and enables prediction of long-term performance of the system in a computationally-efficient manner. Using this m ...

Modelling of current and temperature effects on supercapacitors ageing. Part II: State-of-Health assessment

Mario Paolone, Dimitri Torregrossa

This second part of the paper proposes a model for predicting the State-of-Health (SOH) of electrochemical double layers supercapacitors (SCs) during combined high-pulsed power cycling and high-temperature life endurance stresses. The evolutions of the SC ...

Performance evolution of 60kA HTS cable prototypes in the EDIPO test facility

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Davide Uglietti, Boris Stepanov, Rainer Wesche

During the first test campaign of the 60 kA HTS cable prototypes in the EDIPO test facility, the feasibility of a novel HTS fusion cable concept proposed at the EPFL Swiss Plasma Center (SPC) was successfully demonstrated. While the measured DC performance ...

Analysing the distribution of walking in the Swiss population

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie

In many countries including Switzerland, public policy encourages people to walk for reasons linked to health, the environment, and transport. However, the distribution of walking in the population is not known. People who walk great distances have not bee ...

Looking for “frequent walkers” among the resident population of Switzerland

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie

Walking is the focus of increasing interest. However, the phenomenon of people who spontaneously walk great distances has not been investigated. Here, we analyse quantitative data from the Swiss transport micro-census (MRMT2010), containing information fro ...

A three-dimensional hydrodynamic model (ELCOM) coupled with a biological model (CAEDYM) was calibrated with field data from Lake Simcoe (2008) and used to examine the expected impact of dreissenid mussels on the distribution of phytoplankton and nutrients, ...
