New Tools for MOOC/MOOL to Sustain Continuity of Experimentation in Control

Denis Gillet, Christophe Salzmann, Yves Henri Philippe Piguet

The use of interactive tools combined with remote laboratories has shown to be very useful for students when offered in a MOOC. The EPFL hands-on Control MOOC enables students to switch back and forth between control and observation on a remote laboratory, ...

Design and implementation of quasi-optical components for the upgrade of the TCV EC-system

Timothy Goodman, Stefano Alberti, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Laurie Porte, Matthieu Toussaint, Florian Ramseyer

The EC-system of the TCV tokamak is progressively being upgraded with the addition of two MW-class dual-frequency gyrotrons (84 and 126 GHz/2s/1MW). In order to connect the two gyrotrons to the existing low field side and top launchers, new waveguide routi ...

Writing/Drawing/Modeling Inventions: Regimes of Description and the ‘Intellectual’ in IP, France-United States ca. 1790-1850

Jérôme Baudry

In 1791, one year after the first US Patent Act, the French ‘Loi relative aux découvertes utiles’ sought to revolutionize the Ancien Régime’s privileges of invention, turning them into new patents or ‘brevets d’invention’. Not only did the law recast ci-de ...

Structural Adaptation through Stiffness Tuning

Gennaro Senatore

Adaptive design strategies have been employed to improve structural performances in terms of load-bearing efficiency and energetic impact as well as to achieve multi-functionality. In this work, we investigate a passive adaptation strategy that employs var ...

Systems engineering and design of a Mars Polar Research Base with a human crew

Claudio Leonardi, Anne-Marlene Rüede, Anton Ivanov, Tatiana Maillard

Mars Polar Ice caps have been known ever since they were first observed by Cassini. Robotic exploration mis- sions, starting with Mariner 9, have confirmed that they are composed of water ice. During later missions, instruments such as Mars Global Surveyor ...

SoK: Shining Light on Shadow Stacks

Mathias Josef Payer, Xiangyu Zhang

Control-Flow Hijacking attacks are the dominant attack vector against C/C++ programs. Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) solutions mitigate these attacks on the forward edge, i.e., indirect calls through function pointers and virtual calls. Protecting the backwa ...

“Inventions Represented by Models”: How Switzerland’s First Patent System Excluded Chemical Inventions (1888-1907)

Nicolas Christophe Chachereau

In matters of patents of invention, Switzerland was a unique case in the nineteenth century. After a brief experiment between 1801 and 1803, the country remained without a patent system until 1888. Not only was this situation exceptional in Europe and espe ...
