The ongoing EU FP7 project DYNAMIX aims to develop and assess dynamic policy mixes that achieve absolute decoupling between resource use and well-being. One of the policy instruments we assess is a feebate scheme for selected product categories. This instr ...
Automatic visual detection of instruments in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) can significantly augment the procedure experience for operating clinicians. In this paper, we present a novel technique for detecting surgical instruments by constructing a robu ...
Synopsis: This project is about using musical recordings of string instruments to determine on which strings notes have been played. It includes the study of the spectral content of the recordings and the development of a robust classifica ...
CAMEA is a novel instrument concept, thus the performance has not been explored. Furthermore it is a complex instrument using many analyser arrays in a wide angular range. The performance of the instrument has been studied by use of three approaches: McSta ...
Presentation of BIM teaching at the EPFL to architects and engineers students at master level. Explanation of the instruments used during the course to train students to work on a collaborative and interdisciplinary mode. The importance of the allocation o ...
Based on an on-going research project called “Policy options for a resource efficient Europe” (POLFREE), this paper analyses potential policy instruments and their interdependencies in a policy mix for resource efficiency. It focuses on fundamental trade-o ...
Analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) is a first principles based method to determine absolute sedimentation coefficients and buoyant molar masses of macromolecules and their complexes, reporting on their size and shape in free solution. The purpose of this ...
Gottfried Erich Rosenthal (1745-1813) was born and died at Nordhausen (now in Thuringia). As his ancestors, he became a Master-Baker after his studies at the local Gymnasium, where he excelled in mathematics. In 1779, after reading the 1772 treatise by Del ...
We here describe the result of simulations of 15 generic neutron instruments for the long-pulsed European Spallation Source. All instruments have been simulated for 20 different settings of the source time structure, corresponding to pulse lengths between ...
The Santis Tower was instrumented in May 2010 and, to this date, more than 400 flashes were successfully recorded. Lightning current waveforms and their time-derivatives are measured at two different heights along the tower (24-m and 82-m AGL). In this pap ...
