Given the present context of energy transition, the University Hospital of Geneva is constrained to readapt its energy strategy to target the new State objectives in terms of energy consumption management. A long-term energy planning assistance tool is dev ...
In this work, a comparative exergy and environmental analysis of the vehicle fuel end use is presented. This analysis comprises petroleum and natural gas derivatives (including hydrogen), biofuels (ethanol and biodiesel), and their mixtures, besides of the ...
The effect of investing in equipment and/or structures on TFP and long run growth is investigated here. We argue that economies can grow in spite of stagnant TFP if the investment rate is inefficiently high. We study the case of Spain where real GDP per wo ...
This paper studies the effects of sharing markets on the prices for new products and on product design in terms of durability. In a dynamic economy with overlapping generations, consumers take strategic purchasing decisions, anticipated by a durable-goods ...
Electric buses are particularly suitable for city and suburban routes due to zero local exhaust and noise emissions. The operation schedule interval defines the charging power, bus fleet size and total cost of ownership of a bus. We propose a novel cost-be ...
The use of mobile robots in search-and-rescue and disaster-response missions has increased significantly in recent years. However, they are still remotely controlled by expert professionals on an actuator set-point level, and they would benefit, therefore, ...
Agricultural crop residues serve as a renewable source for production of bioethanol and other value added chemicals. Optimization of enzymatic saccharification may ensure cost-effective production of bioethanol and other industrially important products. He ...
We consider the cooperative data exchange problem, in which nodes are fully connected with each other. Each node initially only has a subset of the K packets making up a file and wants to recover the whole file. Node i can make a broadcast transmission, wh ...
Over the past few years, bio-succinic acid from renewable resources has gained increasing attention as a potential bio-derived platform chemical for the detergent/surfactant, ion chelator, food and pharmaceutical markets. Until now, much research was under ...
In this paper, we present a methodology for estimating the protection levels of critical equipment against IEMI. We apply the method to a wireless communication infrastructure, but it can be applied to any critical infrastructure. The required protection l ...
