Buildings account for almost 40% of energy consumption in European countries and hence are responsible for a significant part of greenhouse gas emissions. Recent regulations and standards (Minergie, Minergie P, etc.) are strongly encouraging more sustainab ...
The close links between mineralogy and materials science are leading to major developments in how society deals more effectively with energy and environmental challenges. The fast expanding field of "environmental mineralogy" helps mitigate major environme ...
CAMEA (Countinuous Angle Multiple Energy Analyser) is a new concept for analysing inelastically scattered neutrons with high efficiency. It contains many (up to 10) vertically focusing analyser arrays behind each other, analysing the scattered neutrons wit ...
The most exploited renewable energy at a global scale is hydropower, which nowadays accounts for the 18 % of the world’s electricity supply. Its production is expected to increase approximately 3.1% each year in the next 25 years maintaining its share in t ...
We study constraints on new physics from Higgs production at the LHC in the context of an effective field theory (EFT), focusing on Higgs searches in HV (V = W, Z) associated production which are particularly sensitive to the high-energy behavior of certai ...
Digital circuits based on nanoelectromechanical (NEM) relays hold out the potential of providing an energy efficiency unachievable by conventional CMOS technology. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the operating characteristics of fabricated curve ...
This thesis has two objectives. The first objective is to better understand the value of energy efficiency in buildings and its relationship to secondary market real estate prices. The second objective is to understand the cost of the implied insurance inc ...
A step-up DC-DC converter (non-isolated) based on the current diverter principle is shown. This converter is intended for renewable energy sources or distribution networks for elevating the voltage from LV to MV levels. The relationship of stage number, du ...
Presenting the best papers of the 3rd EPFL-UNESCO Chair Conference on Technologies for Development, this publication offers a valuable collection of innovative case studies exploring access to energy and renewable energy technologies in the Global South. I ...
We study the semilinear wave equation ∂t2ψ−Δψ=∣ψ∣p−1ψ for p>3 with radial data in three spatial dimensions. There exists an explicit solution which blows up at t=T>0 given by $\displaystyl ...
