Modelling transport time to trauma centres and 30-day mortality in road accidents in Switzerland: an exploratory study

Stéphane Joost

BACKGROUND: Rapid access to a trauma centre for severely injured road accident victims, conceptualised as the Golden Hour, links access time to definitive treatment within 1 hour of trauma with reduced risks of morbidity and mortality. Access times have no ...

A risk-based multi-level stress test methodology: application to six critical non-nuclear infrastructures in Europe

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Daniela Rodrigues

Recent natural disasters that seriously affected critical infrastructure (CI) with significant socio-economic losses and impact revealed the need for the development of reliable methodologies for vulnerability and risk assessment. In this paper, a risk-bas ...

Understanding the Reconstruction of Personal Networks Through Residential Trajectories

Vincent Kaufmann, Guillaume Simon Joseph Drevon, Gil Viry

This article examines how residential trajectories influence the spatiality and composition of personal networks. Three mechanisms are considered: the addition of spatially close network members, the selection of spatially distant network members, and the ...

Development of Advanced Methodologies for Monitoring and Modelling of Neutron Noise in Modern LWR Cores

Dionysios Chionis

Nuclear reactors are inherently stochastic systems, in which neutronic and thermal-hydraulic parameters fluctuate continuously even during steady-state conditions. In addition, structural components vibrate due to the coolant hydraulic forces. This stochas ...

Preliminary design and analysis of Liquid Fuel Molten Salt Reactor using multi-physics code GeN-Foam

Carlo Fiorina

In this study, a hypothetical fast spectrum Liquid Fuel Molten Salt Reactor (LFMSR) core is modeled using the multiphysics C++ code GeN-Foam (General Nuclear Foam). GeN-Foam is based on OpenFOAM, a C++ opensource library for solution of continuum mechanics ...

A coarse-mesh methodology for modelling of single-phase thermal-hydraulics of ESFR innovative assembly design

Andreas Pautz, Konstantin Mikityuk, Carlo Fiorina, Stefan Radman

The GeN-Foam multi-physics code enables coupled thermal-hydraulic, neutronic, and thermal-mechanical analysis of fast reactor cores with 3-D unstructured deformable meshes. Advances within the Horizon2020 ESFR-SMART project, as well as trends towards highe ...

A solar-based sustainable urban design: The effects of city-scale street-canyon geometry on solar access in Geneva, Switzerland

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dan Assouline, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni

Buildings commonly have the largest share in the energy demand of a country, but they also offer sites for the generation of solar energy. Here we develop a methodology to analyse the effects of street-canyon geometries on the solar access of street surfac ...

GEN-FOAM: An OpenFOAM (R)-Based Multi-physics Solver for Nuclear Reactor Analysis

Carlo Fiorina

A multi-physics solver for nuclear reactor analysis, named GeN-Foam (Generalized Nuclear Foam), has been developed by the Laboratory for Reactor Physics and System Behavior at the EPFL and at the Paul Scherrer Institut (Switzerland). The developed solver c ...

Measuring the Safety Climate of Academic Laboratories to Improve Safety Behaviours

Thierry Meyer, Damien Stricker, Nadia Gerweck

In 2005, two major accidents occurred at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Although there were no injuries, the material damages resulted in high financial losses. The management of safety was restructured as a consequence. One of the ma ...

Tests and developments of a long-pulse high-power 170 GHz absorbing matched load

Timothy Goodman, Stefano Alberti, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Damien Fasel, Francesca Maria Poli, Francisco Sanchez, Ioannis Pagonakis

The future EC systems will consist of several gyrotron sources providing MW-level millimeter wave power at a frequency around or above 170 GHz. The development of matched loads is necessary to test the new sources, the components for the transmission lines ...
