Water and energy are the key resources required for both economic and population growth, and yet both are increasingly scarce. The distribution of water takes large amounts of energy, while the production of energy requires large amounts of water in proces ...
The Master Project offers a survey on several aspects of co-digestion in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) and in agriculture. The description of the legal context and the technical processes present the basis for the subsequent analysis of the co-digesti ...
We study the energy consumptions of two strategies that increase the capacity of an LTE network: (1) the deployment of redundant macro and micro base stations by the operator at locations where the traffic is high, and (2) the deployment of publicly access ...
Even if supercapacitors present a reduced energy density, they allow to store a significant amount of energy which leads to a significant autonomy for applications with reduced energy needs. The main advantage of supercapacitors is to compensate a limited ...
The Praille-Acacias-Vernets suburb, located in Geneva, Switzerland, is today considered as an outworn city area (2.3 km(2)). It consists of parking lots, industries, businesses and marshalling yards. The Geneva Government decided to remodel this suburb to ...
Energy consumption of the Internet is already substantial and it is likely to increase as operators deploy faster equipment to handle popular bandwidth-intensive services, such as streaming and video-on-demand. Existing work on energy saving considers loca ...
Compliant actuation contributes enormously in legged locomotion robotics since it is able to alleviate control efforts in improving the robot’s adaptability and energy efficiency. In this paper, we present a novel design of a variable stiffness rotary actu ...
We have demonstrated theoretically that it is possible to use the resonant coupling of exciton-polaritons in a planar microcavity and Tamm plasmons at a metal film on the surface of the structure to provide lateral spatial control of the exciton-polaritons ...
This study concentrates on determining how to implement the legal framework at different institutional levels in an integrated approach for the planning and management of energy systems in urban areas. There are mainly five levels of decision able to influ ...
This paper has an energy consumption reduction perspective by considering alternative machining strategies and system components interactions translated into variable and constant power flows with respect to various use phase regimes of a machine tool syst ...
