Re-entry analysis of critical components and materials for design-for-demise techniques
Pénélope Leyland, Stefano Mischler, Seong-Hyeon Park
The concern caused by the rising population of space debris has increased. One of the recommended mitigation measures is the safe re-entry disposal either in a controlled or uncontrolled manner. Performing a controlled re-entry, where the spacecraft is gui ...
2021Synthesis, reactivity, and environmental relevance of uranyl(V) complexes.
Knowledge of fundamental chemical properties of all environmentally relevant uranium species is essential to understand environmental uranium mobility and develop novel remediation strate-gies. A myriad of uranium(VI) and uranium(IV) compounds has been stu ...
EPFL2020SegMap: Segment-based mapping and localization using data-driven descriptors
Roland Siegwart, Andrei Cramariuc
Precisely estimating a robot’s pose in a prior, global map is a fundamental capability for mobile robotics, e.g., autonomous driving or exploration in disaster zones. This task, however, remains challenging in unstructured, dynamic environments, where loca ...
2019Non-crystalline tetravalent uranium species in the subsurface: formation and stability
Uranium (U) contamination of ground and surface waters poses an acute hazard on the ecosystem and human health. Since the discovery of microbial U(VI) reduction, U bioremediation has been explored as a promising and cost-effective method compared to tradit ...
EPFL2019Likelihood-free Inference of Population Genetic Parameters from Time-Sampled Genetic Data
This thesis consists of five papers published in peer-reviewed journals, two of which focus on method development of time-serial inference, represented by publications in methodology journals, and three others that describe collaborative data applications ...
EPFL2018Towards sustainable regeneration of disused urban areas : a monitoring tool to integrate assessment into the projects dynamics
Sophie Lufkin, Martine Laprise
Regeneration of disused urban areas, such as industrial brownfields or abandoned infrastructural zones, has received considerable attention in the context of post‐industrial European cities. Due to the inherent complexity of these projects, a holistic inte ...

2015Hollow cylinder simulation experiments of galleries in Boom Clay formation
Vincent Labiouse, Claire Sauthier, Shuang You
In the context of nuclear waste disposal in clay formations, laboratory experiments were performed to study at reduced scale the Excavation Damaged Zone (EDZ) induced by the construction of galleries in the Boom Clay formation. For this purpose, thick-wall ...
Springer Verlag2014Laboratory and in situ simulation tests of the Excavation Damaged Zone around galleries in Opalinus Clay
In the context of nuclear waste disposal in clay formations, laboratory and in situ simulation experiments were performed to study at reduced scale the Excavation Damaged Zone (EDZ) around tunnels in the indurated Opalinus Clay at Mont Terri, Switzerland. ...
Springer Verlag2014Consequences of the Thermal Transient on the Evolution of the Damaged Zone Around a Repository for Heat-Emitting High-Level Radioactive Waste in a Clay Formation: a Performance Assessment Perspective
Vincent Labiouse, Xing Li, Li Yu
A proper evaluation of the perturbations of the host rock induced by the excavation and the emplacement of exothermic wastes is essential for the assessment of the long-term safety of high-level radioactive waste disposals in clay formations. The impact of ...
