A systems perspective on sufficiency, wellbeing, and transition in the Swiss habitat

Sascha Nick

The Swiss habitat – buildings and related mobility – is facing multiple wicked problems that can only be solved together, such as excessive energy and climate impact, high material use with low circularity, accelerating urban sprawl and ecosystem destructi ...

Structural Measures as Guides to Ultrastable States in Overjammed Packings

Sangwoo Kim

Jammed, disordered packings of given sets of particles possess a multitude of equilibrium states with different mechanical properties. Identifying and constructing desired states, e.g., of superior stability, is a complex task. Here, we show that in two-di ...

RRAM-VAC: A Variability-Aware Controller for RRAM-based Memory Architectures

David Atienza Alonso, Alexandre Sébastien Julien Levisse, Marco Antonio Rios, Shikhar Tuli

The growing need for connected, smart and energy efficient devices requires them to provide both ultra-low standby power and relatively high computing capabilities when awoken. In this context, emerging resistive memory technologies (RRAM) appear as a prom ...

Application of the planning support system URBio

Nils Christian Schüler, Sébastien Cajot

The planning support system URBio is demonstrated via two case studies. Both case studies are located in the canton of Geneva. The first case study is a greenfield planning project, where the goal is to build a new district on former agricultural land. The ...

Hire fast, fire slow: the employment benefits of energy transitions

Marc Vielle, Vincent Moreau, François Richard Vuille, Yann Füllemann

The transition towards decarbonized and efficient energy systems has broad socio-economic implications. We estimate the potential impacts on employment from efforts in energy efficiency in industry, transport and buildings as well as substituting local ren ...

Global well-posedness for the Yang-Mills equation in 4+1 dimensions: Small energy

Joachim Krieger, Daniel Tataru

We consider the hyperbolic Yang-Mills equation on the Minkowski space

\reels^{4+1}

. Our main result asserts that this problem is globally well-posed for all initial data whose energy is sufficiently small. This solves a longstanding open problem. ...

Mechanism of ultrafast non-reactive deactivation of the retinal chromophore in non-polar solvents

Goran Zgrablic

The photoisomerization of the all-trans protonated Schiff base of retinal (SBR+) in solution is highly inefficient. The present theoretical and experimental investigation aims at disclosing the mechanisms of ultrafast, non-reactive relaxation of SBR+ that ...
