High-Fidelity Determination of Nuclide Inventories for Radioactive Waste Disposal

The general license application (RBG) for the Swiss deep geological repository will be submitted in 2024. Furthermore, the decommissioning of the nuclear power plants (NPPs) is coming soon, with the Mühleberg NPP (KKM) scheduled to shut down in 2019. In su ...

Infrared Optical Properties of Doped and Pure Thermochromic Coatings for Solar Thermal Absorbers

Anna Krammer, Josef Andreas Schuler, Fabrice Thierry Demière

A new generation of solar collectors is based on thermochromic thin film technology, where the remarkable optical changes of vanadium dioxide, through its reversible semiconductor-to-metal phase transition, are exploited. This study reports on the infrared ...

Thermochromic coatings for overheating protection of solar thermal collectors - novel type of doping (TARGET95)

Andreas Schueler, Anna Krammer

Overheating and the resulting stagnation of solar thermal collectors is a common problem even in central European latitudes. During stagnation, high temperatures lead to water evaporation, glycol degradation and stresses in the collector with increasing va ...

Solar heat gains through train windows: a non-negligible contribution to the energy balance

Josef Andreas Schuler, Olivia Valérie Charlotte Bouvard, Luc Burnier

The sector of transportation accounts for about one third of the total energy consumption in Switzerland. A monitoring campaign of the energy consumption of a regional train revealed the critical energy-consuming systems. Heating, cooling and ventilation w ...

Study of Si doped VO2 thin films for solar thermal applications

Andreas Schueler, Anna Krammer, Olivia Valérie Charlotte Bouvard

A new generation of smart solar thermal collectors is based on thermochromic thin film technology. Thermochromic absorber coatings change their optical properties with temperature, particularly in the infrared range. In order to prevent overheating, the co ...

Pre-dismantling THM modelling

FEBEX (Full-scale Engineered Barrier Experiment in Crystalline Host Rock) is a research and demonstration project that was initiated by ENRESA (Spain). The aim of the project is to study the behaviour of near-field components in a repository for high-level ...

Representing groups against all odds

Maxime Gheysens

We investigate how probability tools can be useful to study representations of non-amenable groups. A suitable notion of "probabilistic subgroup" is proposed for locally compact groups, and is valuable to induction of representations. Nonamenable groups ad ...

New approach to low thermal conductivity of thermal barrier protection with improved mechanical integrity

Heinrich Hofmann, Paul Bowen, Abhishek Tewari

Layered ceramic systems with designed stacks of dense and porous layers were investigated as alternative for thermal barrier protection system (TBPs). This approach gives the possibility to obtain low thermal conductivity with the impact protection of dens ...

Effects of urban compactness on solar energy potential

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Dan Assouline, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Govinda Upadhyay

Compactness is a major urban form parameter that affects the accessibility of solar energy in the built environment. Here we explore the relation between various compactness indicators and solar potential in the 16 neighbourhoods (11,418 buildings) constit ...
