Exploring Blink-Rate Behaviors for Cybersickness Detection in VR

Cybersickness continues to be one of the main barriers for mainstream adoption of Virtual Reality (VR). Despite the wealth of research available on this topic, it is still an unsolved problem. This paper explores the potential influence of cybersickness ov ...

Design of sediment detention basins: Scaled model experiments and application

Anton Schleiss, Sebastian Schwindt, Mona Jafarnejad Chaghooshi, Anita Hélène Roth

Sediment detention basins are implemented on mountain rivers to trap solid material that may aggravate the flooding of downstream settlements. However, retention structures built in the past may unnecessarily retain sediment during non-hazardous flood even ...

Risk perception and decision-making: do farmers consider risks from climate change?

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

Small-scale farmers are highly threatened by climate change. Experts often base their interventions to support farmers to adapt to climate change on their own perception of farmers' livelihood risks. However, if differences in risk perception between farme ...

Dynamic interaction of market and behavioural barriers in the transition towards a circular economy: a heterogeneous-agent approach

In this paper we analyse transition towards circular economy as a complex adaptive system focusing on the market and behavioural barriers. We investigate the conditions for successful introduction of a new production which is appropriate for a circular eco ...

Applying Learning Analytics to a Primary School Classroom: Benefits and Barriers

Maria Jesus Rodriguez Triana

There are numerous proposals and solutions that aim to apply Learning Analytics (LA) in authentic scenarios. Many of them have been applied successfully in learning contexts where adults are involved. However, when we try to transfer such proposals to unde ...

Exploring barriers to climate change adaptation in the Swiss tourism sector

Philippe Thalmann, Cecilia Matasci

Increasingly, various sectors are affected by climate change and need to find ways to adapt with much public guidance and support. This paper examines the adaptation process of a sector that started it some time ago - Swiss Alpine tourism. It identifies ba ...

Hydroweb: an Open Source educational WebGIS platform for the understanding of spatio-temporal variations of meteorological parameters at the watershed scale

Stéphane Joost, Jens Ingensand, Michaël Kalbermatten, Vincent Luyet

GIS is an interdisciplinary technology able to support high-level thinking and spatial reasoning. It allows students to visualize complex real world problems, and supports multiple modes of learning. But GIS remain unused at the primary school level. Indee ...

Intrinsic dynamics of weakly and strongly confined excitons in nonpolar nitride-based heterostructures

Nicolas Grandjean, Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Jacques Levrat, Jean-Daniel Ganière, Pierre Michel Corfdir

Both weakly and strongly confined excitons are studied by time-resolved photoluminescence in a nonpolar nitride-based heterostructure grown by molecular beam epitaxy on the a-facet of a bulk GaN crystal, with an ultralow dislocation density of 2 × 105 cm-2 ...

Light engineering of the polariton landscape in semiconductor microcavities

Romuald Houdré, Cristiano Ciuti

We demonstrate a method to create potential barriers with polarized light beams for polaritons in semiconductor microcavities. The form of the barriers is engineered via the real space shape of a focalized beam on the sample. Their height can be determined ...
