Many rivers worldwide show converging sections where a characteristic limiting front for vegetation establishment on gravel bars is observed. An important conceptual model was advanced in 2006 by Gurnell and Petts, who demonstrated that for the convergent ...
This thesis concerns the observation and modeling of solute transport processes, focusing in particular on the theoretical formulation by means of travel and residence time distributions. The work reports and analyzes data collected from a controlled exper ...
The increasing use of sensor technology for various monitoring applications (e.g. air-pollution, traffic, climate-change, etc.) has led to an unprecedented volume of streaming data that has to be efficiently stored and retrieved. Real-time model-based data ...

An extensive set of experimental data, for zero pressure gradient boundary layers, over a wide range of Reynolds number is re-evaluated with the help of a composite profile fitted to the mean-velocity data. Boundary layer parameters such as Pi, H and the t ...
We propose a system to characterize the 3-D diffusion properties of the probing bead trapped by a photonic-force microscope. We follow a model-based approach, where the model of the dynamics of the bead is given by the Langevin equation. Our procedure comb ...

We introduce a novel bio-inspired odor source localization algorithm (surge-cast) for environments with a main wind flow and compare it to two well- known algorithms. With all three algorithms, systematic experiments with real robots are carried out in a w ...
The recent phenomenal growth of the field of biotechnology has contributed to a mounting pressure to improve process efficiency and productivity and to increase the quality and safety of end-products. This demand gave rise to the discipline of on-line biop ...
Ceramic hotplates using classical thick-film technology or low-temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) find a wide range of potential applications: infrared sources, fuel cell components and packaging, microreactors and sensors. This versatility is made possibl ...
Scan2Map is an airborne remote-sensing system developed under the lead of the TOPO lab at the EPFL. Typically operated aboard a helicopter, it is dedicated for small mission areas (a few square kilometres at the maximum) and offers a sub-decimetre accuracy ...
