Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Characterization of hydraulic behavior of orifices in conduits

Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

Surge tanks in high-head power plants ensure safe and flexible transient operation of the hydraulic machinery. Orifices or throttles in surge tanks are often critical structural elements in view of the good performance of surge tanks and the stability of t ...

Code and its image: the functions of text and visualisation in a code-based design studio

Jeffrey Huang, Mark Meagher, Guillaume Labelle, Nathaniel Zuelzke, Trevor Patt

Traditionally, design learning in the architecture studio has taken place through a combination of individual work and joint projects. The introduction of code-based design practices in the design studio has altered this balance, introducing new models of ...

Modelling wind-driven rain on buildings in urbanized area using 3-D GIS and LiDAR datasets

Luca Rossi, François Golay, Sylvain Coutu, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro, Pauline Emery, Vera Wyrsch

This study investigated the distribution of the fraction of rainfall intercepted by the facades of buildings located in an urbanized area. We used the frequently used semi-empirical standard ISO-15927-3 to simulate Wind-Driven Rain on facades. The implemen ...

Architectural Caustics — Controlling Light with Geometry

Mark Pauly

Caustics are captivating light patterns created by materials bundling or diverting light by refraction or reflection. We know caustics as random side effects, appearing, for example, at the bottom of a swimming pool. In this paper we show that it is possib ...

Parametric Materiality

Russell Alexander Loveridge

Sustainability issues are increasingly taking more prominent positions in the hierarchy of design decisions. The combination of linked digital analysis and parametric design has emerged as an integrated method of assimilating performative characteristics i ...

An Interactive Performance-Based Expert System for Daylighting in Architectural Design

Design practitioners are increasingly using digital tools during the design process; however, building performance simulation continues to be more commonly utilized for analysis rather than as a design aid. Additionally, while simulation tools provide the ...

Curved Folded Plate Timber Structures

Yves Weinand, Hans Ulrich Buri, Ivo Stotz

This work investigates the development of a Curved Origami Prototype made with timber panels. In the last fifteen years the timber industry has developed new, large size, timber panels. Composition and dimensions of these panels and the possibility of mill ...

Nanotopographic Control of Neuronal Polarity

Silvestro Micera

We employ simple geometrical rules to design a set of nanotopographies able to interfere with focal adhesion establishment during neuronal differentiation. Exploiting nanoimprint lithography techniques on cyclic-olefin-copolymer films, we demonstrate that ...

Iterative geometric design for architecture

Ivo Stotz

This work investigates on computer aided integrated architectural design and production. The aim is to provide integral solutions for the design and the production of geometrically complex free-form architecture. Investigations on computer aided geometric ...

Diagnostic Techniques for Measuring Suprathermal Electron Dynamics in Plasmas

Stefano Coda

Plasmas, both in the laboratory and in space, are often not in thermodynamic equilibrium, and the plasma electron distribution function is accordingly non-Maxwellian. Suprathermal electron tails can be generated by external drives, such as rf waves and ele ...
