Bistable Puncturing Tool for Retinal Vein Cannulation

Yves Bellouard, Simon Nessim Henein, Charles Baur, Lisa Anaïs Jeanne Bonnefoy

An innovative surgical tool prototype dedicated to safe puncturing has been developed for the treatment of retinal vein occlusions (RVOs). The tool is manufactured monolithically by femtolaser printing in fused silica. It consists of a programmable bistabl ...

Review on ventilation rates in the ventilated air-spaces behind common wall assemblies with external cladding

Dolaana Khovalyg, Mohammad Rahiminejad

For many decades, ventilated cavities in wall assemblies of buildings have been essential for creating moisture resilient constructions by allowing airflow within the air gap to promote drying. In addition to that, the airflow in the cavity can enhance the ...

Power-to-methane via co-electrolysis of H2O and CO2: The effects of pressurized operation and internal methanation

François Maréchal, Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Ligang Wang, Tzu-En Lin, Hanfei Zhang

This paper presents a model-based investigation to handle the fundamental issues for the design of co-electrolysis based power-to-methane at the levels of both the stack and system: the role of CO2 in co-electrolysis, the benefits of employing pressurized ...

Assessing the natural ventilation potential of the Basel region

Mario Germano

A method is proposed to assess the natural ventilation potential (NVP) of the Basel Region, Switzerland, by taking into account the most comprehensive set of factors involved in natural ventilation. These factors are either driving forces, such as wind pre ...

Multicriteria assessment of natural ventilation potential

Claude-Alain Roulet, Mario Germano

A method is proposed to assess the natural ventilation potential by taking into account the most comprehensive set of factors involved in natural ventilation. These factors are either driving forces, such as wind pressure and stack effect, or constraints, ...

Solid oxide fuel cell stack simulation and optimization, including experimental validation and transient behavior

Diego Larrain

This thesis presents the development of models for the simulation and optimization of the design of a planar solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stack. Fuel cells produce electric power directly from a fuel by electrochemical reactions. The high efficiencies demo ...

In-vivo fluence rate effect in photodynamic therapy of early cancers with tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Alain Woodtli

Several parameters affect clin. trials in photodynamic therapy and influence the therapeutic outcome. Beside drug dose, light dose, drug-light interval and other variables, the fluence rate is a parameter that can influence the therapeutic results. In this ...
