Territorial reading in Ukraine’s recovery policy: conceptual and methodological gaps
Approaches to Ukraine’s wartime and anticipated post-war reconstruction and recovery, united under a general slogan of ‘build back better’, are currently reflected in multiple policies, regulations, planning tools and data registers, as well as showcased t ...
2023Optimization Methods for Control: From Embedded Programmable Hardware to Data-Driven Process Optimization
The research community has been making significant progress in hardware implementation, numerical computing and algorithm development for optimization-based control. However, there are two key challenges that still have to be overcome for optimization-base ...
EPFL2021The challenges of impact evaluation: Attempting to measure the effectiveness of community-based disaster risk management
Anthony Christopher Davison, Nicola Mary Banwell, Silvia Hostettler, Alfredo Rafael Kägi Trejo
Although disaster risk management is becoming increasingly important in development cooperation, there is still a lack of robust evidence regarding its effectiveness. Few studies based on a counterfactual have been conducted in the fields of disaster manag ...
2020Efficient Workload Colocation in Modern Data Centers
Despite the high costs of acquisition and maintenance of modern data centers, machine resource utilization is often low. Servers running online interactive services are over-provisioned to support peak load (which only occurs for a fraction of the time), d ...
EPFL2019Nonmodel-based framework for rapid seismic risk and loss assessment of instrumented steel buildings
Dimitrios Lignos, Seong-Hoon Hwang
This paper proposes a nonmodel-based framework for estimating story-based engineering demand parameters (EDPs) in instrumented steel frame buildings with steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs). The proposed framework utilizes a wavelet-based damage-sensitive ...
Elsevier2018EaRL: Toolbox for Earthquake Risk and Loss Assessment of Building Assets
Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady, Seong-Hoon Hwang
Infrastructure (asset) risk management is essential for a resilient environment. Several industries are concerned to improve their building asset preparedness subject to seismic hazard. To this end, the development of software tools that quantify and asses ...
2018Resilience management during large-scale epidemic outbreaks
Assessing and managing the impact of large-scale epidemics considering only the individual risk and severity of the disease is exceedingly difficult and could be extremely expensive. Economic consequences, infrastructure and service disruption, as well as ...
