In the context of an increasing number of retrofitting projects and greater consideration for the criteria of sustainability, architects and engineers are looking for a global optimization of existing buildings and therefore need to multiply comparisons be ...
This article shows that the creation of cyberworlds (interactive virtual environments) can be an excellent educational tool covering a wide range of computer science and engineering disciplines. We present the experiences gathered during more than one seme ...
In this paper we describe the application of an H-infinity system identification procedure to a Tokamak. The work is motivated by the need to create linear models which are suitable for controller design and which may be used to validate different models d ...
A review, with refs. This contribution analyzes the position of biochem. engineering in general and bioprocess engineering particularly in the force fields between fundamental science and applications, and between academia and industry. By using culture te ...
In this paper we aim at controlling physically meaningful quantities with emphasis on environmental applications. This is carried out by an efficient numerical procedure combining the goal-oriented framework [R. Becker, R. Rannacher, An optimal control app ...
Several physical quantities of interest are of quantum nature, often measurable as distinct particles. Light is one such example, photons being its particles. In conventional detectors, light is converted onto electrical charges and hence onto a current or ...
The physics of supra thermal test ions in turbulent plasmas can be conveniently studied in basic plasma physics devices, which allow high-resolution measurements of plasma and fast ion parameters and wave fields throughout the whole plasma cross-section. W ...

The research being undertaken in the EPFL’s Timber Construction Laboratory aims to question in depth the relationship between engineering sciences and architectural conception. The IBOIS is firmly ingrained in the Institute of Structures, as well as being ...
The study electrochemistry is pertinent to a wide variety of fields, including bioenergetics, environmental sciences, and engineering sciences. Intended both as a basic course for undergraduate students and as a reference work for graduates and researchers ...
