Mobile Urban Micrometeorological Monitoring (MUMiM)

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo, Laurent Deschamps, Pierre Loesch, Paul Becquelin

To understand the urban environment from a meteorological perspective in order to design better and more sustainable neighbourhoods, an open-source and low-cost meteorological device was developed and tested at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne ...

Swiss Rainfall Mass Curves and their Influence on Extreme Flood Simulation

Anton Schleiss, Javier García Hernández, Bettina Schaefli, Fränz Zeimetz, Guillaume Mathieu Artigue

Extreme flood estimates for dam safety are routinely obtained from hydrologic simulations driven by selected design storms. The temporal structure of such design storms can be obtained from Rainfall Mass Curves (RMCs), which are adimensionalized curves of ...

Design optimization of permeable sediment traps for fluvial bed load transport

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

Sediment traps are crucial elements for flood protection in mountain rivers with high sediment transport capacity. Existing structures often interrupt the channel connectivity. Ideally, a sediment trap should be permeable for bed load during non-hazardous ...

Sediment traps with guiding channel and hybrid check dams improve controlled sediment retention

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastian Schwindt, Stefano Tugulu, Alessandro Reffo

Sediment traps with partially open check dams are crucial elements for flood protection in alpine regions. The trapping of sediment is necessary when intense sediment transport occurs during floods that may endanger urban areas at downstream river reaches. ...

Wave impact on oriented impervious buildings

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich, Claudia Ylla Arbos

Recent studies showed that a speciﬁc design can reduce the impact of water waves on structures, thus limiting the damages. Herein the impact of waves on buildings is addressed, pointing out the inﬂuence of orientation on the hydrodynamic process. ...

Using SAS functions and high-resolution isotope data to unravel travel time distributions in headwater catchments

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Gianluca Botter

We use high-resolution tracer data from an experimental site to test theoretical approaches that integrate catchment-scale flow and transport processes in a unified framework centered on selective age sampling by streamflow and evapotranspiration fluxes. T ...

Nanoscale structural oscillations in perovskite oxides induced by oxygen evolution

Vasiliki Tileli

Understanding the interaction between water and oxides is critical for many technological applications, including energy storage, surface wetting/self-cleaning, photocatalysis and sensors. Here, we report observations of strong structural oscillations of B ...

Solar photo-Fenton and UV/H2O2 processes against the antidepressant Venlafaxine in urban wastewaters and human urine. Intermediates formation and biodegradability assessment

Hubert Girault, César Pulgarin, Dominique Grandjean, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Stefanos Giannakis, Milica Jovic, Idriss Hendaoui

In this work, the use of Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) against the degradation of an emerging contaminant has been subjected under systematic investigation. The optimization of treatment of the anti- depressant drug Venlafaxine (VFA) was performed, u ...
