International PhD Seminar Post-extraction territories in transition: Designing the socio-ecological transition in post carbon marginal spaces
Paola Viganò, Elena Cogato Lanza, Anna Karla De Almeida Milani
The Seminar proposes a European and transatlantic dialogue around the questions of the social and ecological transition (post-carbon) of marginal spaces, and territories of exploitation as the ancient coal territories on the two sides of the Atlantic. Th ...
2022Controlling superconductivity of CeIrIn5 microstructures by substrate selection
Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Maja Deborah Bachmann, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Chunyu Guo, Maarten Ruud van Delft, Joshua Alan Wolfe Straquadine
Superconductor/metal interfaces are usually fabricated in heterostructures that join these dissimilar materials. A conceptually different approach has recently exploited the strain sensitivity of heavy-fermion superconductors, selectively transforming regi ...
AIP Publishing2022Industry Commons: an ecosystem approach to horizontal enablers for sustainable cross-domain industrial innovation (a positioning paper)
This paper introduces the background, concept and definition of the Industry Commons. It initiates a discussion on the positioning of the Industry Commons Ecosystem (ICE) with respect to current research directions in advanced manufacturing and production ...
TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD2021Increasing carbon-to-phosphorus ratio (C:P) from seston as a prime indicator for the initiation of lake reoligotrophication.
Decline in total phosphorus (TP) during lake reoligotrophication does not apparently immediately influence carbon assimilation or deep-water oxygen levels. Traditional monitoring and interpretation do not typically consider the amount of organic carbon exp ...
2021Temperature of artificial freshwater recharge significantly affects salinity distributions in coastal confined aquifers
Artificial freshwater recharge is commonly used to mitigate seawater intrusion and restore salinized aquifers in coastal zones. While the temperature of recharged freshwater often differs from that of aquifers, effects of temperature differences on water f ...
2021Quantifying the technical geothermal potential from shallow borehole heat exchangers at regional scale
Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Alina Ursula Rosa Walch
The extraction of shallow geothermal energy using borehole heat exchangers (BHEs) is a promising approach for decarbonisation of the heating sector. However, a dense deployment of BHEs may lead to thermal interference between neighboring boreholes and ther ...
2020A System Dynamics Assessment of the Supply of Superalloys using WORLD6; Sufficiency for Civilian and Military Aviation Needs
The extraction, supply, market price and recycling of the metals used for superalloys were modelled using the systems dynamics model WORLD6. Peak production per capita (Supply Security) and stock-in-use per capita (Utility of Use) as well as resource stock ...
Paul Scherrer Institute, World Resources Forum2019Reverse-engineering the locomotion of a stem amniote
Auke Ijspeert, Kamilo Andres Melo Becerra, Tomislav Horvat, Konstantinos Karakasiliotis
Reconstructing the locomotion of extinct vertebrates offers insights into their palaeobiology and helps to conceptualize major transitions in vertebrate evolution. However, estimating the locomotor behaviour of a fossil species remains a challenge because ...
2019Wastewater and green waste biorefinery Degradation of simple sugars using mixed cultures of purple non-sulfur bacteria: an insight into microbial interactions
Purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) are phototrophic organisms that have raised interest for both industrial and domestic wastewater treatment and valorization because of their very high assimilation (~1 g CODX g-1 COD substrate) and valuable compounds produ ...
2019Nuove ecologie alpine: industrializzazione e costruzione della città-territorio
This research study offers a reflection on the Alpine urban condition through the observation of the spaces of production. Departing from the premise that the tourist economy cannot be the only possible horizon for Alpine development, this thesis reflects ...
