Carbon budgets at the component scale and their impacts on design choices: the façade as a case study

Marilyne Andersen, Nazanin Rezaei Oghazi, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme

In accordance with the Paris agreement, the Swiss Climate Strategy (SCS) defines the net-zero target to be reached before 2050, which demands for a thoughtful carbon budget allocation between the different contributors. Ongoing normalization tasks are curr ...

Realistic Constrained Multi-Objective Optimization Benchmark Problems from Design

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Cyril Picard

Multi-objective optimization is increasingly used in engineering to design new systems and to identify design trade-offs. Yet, design problems often have objective functions and constraints that are expensive and highly non-linear. Combinations of these fe ...

Embedded Polarizing Filters to Separate Diffuse and Specular Reflection

Laurent Valentin Jospin, Adam James Scholefield, Gilles Baechler

Polarizing filters provide a powerful way to separate diffuse and specular reflection; however, traditional methods rely on several captures and require proper alignment of the filters. Recently, camera manufacturers have proposed to embed polarizing micro ...

Dotty Phantom Types

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki

Phantom types are a well-known type-level, design pattern which is commonly used to express constraints encoded in types. We observe that in modern, multi-paradigm programming languages, these encodings are too restrictive or do not provide the guarantees ...

On the various local solutions to a two-input dynamic optimization problem

Dominique Bonvin

Solving a multi-input dynamic optimization of a batch processes is a complex problem involving interactions between input variables and constraints over time. The problem gets more difficult due to the presence of local solutions that have almost the same ...
