South Sudan - State-of-the-Art on Flood Resilient Shelters
Edisson Xavier Estrella Arcos, André Ullal
One of the most observable consequences of climate change is the abrupt increment in the number and intensity of seasonal floods. This has a special impact on vulnerable communities and developing countries that experience a strong impact on their housing ...
2022Impact of the plasma operation on the technical requirements in EU-DEMO
Olivier Sauter, Minh Quang Tran, Emiliano Fable, Simon Van Mulders, Hartmut Zohm
The plasma design point during stationary phase operation of EU-DEMO has been described extensively in the past, and the assumptions employed for its definition have been supported by various investigations. However, a stationary snapshot is by far not suf ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA2022Landing Proteins on Graphene Trampoline Preserves Their Gas-Phase Folding on the Surface
Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Sven Alexander Szilagyi, Hannah Julia Ochner
Molecule-surface collisions are known to initiate dynamics that lead to products inaccessible by thermal chemistry. These collision dynamics, however, have mostly been examined on bulk surfaces, leaving vast opportunities unexplored for molecular collision ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2022Leveraging topology, geometry, and symmetries for efficient Machine Learning
When learning from data, leveraging the symmetries of the domain the data lies on is a principled way to combat the curse of dimensionality: it constrains the set of functions to learn from. It is more data efficient than augmentation and gives a generaliz ...
EPFL2022Air mediates the impact of a compliant hemisphere on a rigid smooth surface
John Martin Kolinski, Siqi Zheng
Fleeting contact between solids immersed in a fluid medium governs the response of critically important materials, from coffee to soil. Rapid impact of soft solids occurs in systems as diverse as car tires, soft robotic locomotion and suspensions, includin ...
2021Investigating Magma Ocean Solidification on Earth Through Laser‐Heated Diamond Anvil Cell Experiments
Philippe Gillet, Cécile Hébert, Marco Cantoni, James Badro, Farhang Nabiei, Charles-Edouard Boukaré
We carried out a series of silicate fractional crystallization experiments at lower mantle pressures using the laser-heated diamond anvil cell. Phase relations and the compositional evolution of the cotectic melt and equilibrium solids along the liquid lin ...
2021Rapid Elastic Contact: Image Processing and the Virtual Frame Technique (VFT)
A central air bubble is observed to be maintained during the process of an elastic hemi-sphere impacting on a smooth rigid surface. The similar phenomenon has been found in droplet impact in other studies. The effect of air gap between the two solids has b ...
2020Evidence of extensive lunar crust formation in impact melt sheets 4,330 Myr ago
Accurately constraining the formation and evolution of the lunar magnesian suite is key to understanding the earliest periods of magmatic crustal building that followed accretion and primordial differentiation of the Moon. However, the origin and evolution ...
2020Foreword to the Special Issue on Computer Vision-Based Approaches for Earth Observation
The five papers in this special section focus on computer vision-based approaches for Earth observation. These papers followed a series of events promoting works at the interface between computer vision and remote sensing: the special sessions organized at ...
2020The sediment challenge of Swiss river corridors interrupted by man-made reservoirs
Giovanni De Cesare, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Samuel Luke Vorlet, Christian Mörtl
Depending on their characteristics and management, man-made reservoirs can have a significant impact on the natural sediment continuity of rivers. We classify different reservoir types and describe potential risks for the dam and downstream river reach. Ou ...
