A recurrent problem in avalanche engineering is related to impulse waves induced by snow avalanches striking a water basin. We took a first step toward the avalanche dynamics when falling into water by using a viscoplastic material that mimics avalanches. ...
In this study Bacillus sp. MTCC5877 was explored for the production of biosurfactant (BSs) and various carbon sources 1% (w/v), 0.5% (w/v) nitrogen sources were tested at different pH, and temperature. Yield was measured in terms of Emulsification index (E ...
The temperature dependence of the femtosecond elastic second harmonic scattering (fs-ESHS) response of bulk light and heavy water and their electrolyte solutions is presented. We observe clear temperature dependent changes in the hydrogen (H)-bond network ...
This bachelor project work aims to set up a prototype measurement station in the Sorge (a small river near the EPFL) to collect some data about the water and the environmental conditions. And also make the work reproducible so that someone, somewhere else ...

Capsules often prolong the shelf-life of active ingredients, such as many types of drugs, food additives, or cosmetic substances, because they delay oxidation of these substances or prevent their reactions with molecules contained in the surrounding. If ca ...
In the past five years the Laboratory for fundamental BioPhotonics (LBP) has worked on developing new technology that can access the molecular structure and nanoscale properties of buried aqueous interfaces and aqueous solutions. Using these methods a bett ...
The ability to evaluate stream hydrochemistry is often constrained by the capacity to sample streamwater at an adequate frequency. While technology is no longer a limiting factor, costs and sample management can still be a barrier to high-resolution water ...
The growing desire to improve resource efficiency and environmental impact of industrial processes is directly linked to optimal management of heat, mass and power flows. The concept of industrial symbiosis tackles this issue by proposing interplant heat r ...
In this study, the phase diagram of Pluronic L64 and water is simulated via dissipative particle dynamics (DPD). The peculiar structures that form when the concentration varies from dilute to dense (i.e., spherical and rod-like micelles, hexagonal and lame ...
