Distributed Graph-based Convoy Control for Networked Intelligent Vehicles

Alcherio Martinoli, Ali Marjovi, Milos Vasic, Joseph Chadi Benoit Lemaitre

This paper presents an approach for formation control of multi-lane vehicular convoys in highways. We extend a Laplacian graph-based, distributed control law such that networked intelligent vehicles can join or leave the formation dynamically without jeopa ...

Synthesis factors affecting the catalytic performance and stability of Ru/C catalysts for supercritical water gasification

Christian Ludwig, Frédéric Vogel, Gaël Peng

Catalytic supercritical water gasification of isopropanol (450 degrees C, 30 MPa) over Ru/C catalysts was carried out in a fixed-bed plug flow reactor. In the absence of Ru, isopropanol decomposed to solid carbon (coke), and H-2 over the carbon support. Th ...

A stochastic dynamic game of the 2050 European Energy Roadmap with CCS

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie

Overview Climate policy is one of the corner stones of European Union (EU) policy. In 2011, the European Commission has defined a roadmap to low carbon economy in 2050 in which the Commission reconfirmed the EU objective of reducing European greenhouse gas ...

A hybrid absorption-adsorption method to efficiently capture carbon

Berend Smit, Xiaoqi Zhang, Jin Wang, Yuqing Wu

Removal of carbon dioxide is an essential step in many energy-related processes. Here we report a novel slurry concept that combines specific advantages of metal-organic frameworks, ion liquids, amines and membranes by suspending zeolitic imidazolate frame ...

A post-2020 EU energy technology policy: Revisiting the strategic energy technology plan

Matthias Finger

With the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan) expiring in 2020, the EU needs to revisit its energy technology policy for the post-2020 horizon and to establish a policy framework that fosters the achievement of ambitious EU commitments for ...

Large lakes as sources and sinks of anthropogenic heat: Capacities and limits

Alfred Johny Wüest, Martin Schmid

The goal of reducing carbon fuel and thereby saving energy will increase the use of lake water for heating and cooling of riparian infrastructures. This raises the question of which heat use designs meet the ecological and technical requirements for lakes, ...

Implementation of a genetic transformation strategy to improve the biological CO2 capture in Chlorella sp. and Scenedesmus sp.

Christian Ludwig, Mariluz Bagnoud

The concept of producing renewable microalgae biomass using as a main nutrient source a secondary wastewater stream is presently under investigation. It is planned to purify the wastewater by the growth of algal biomass while producing a feedstock that can ...

Organic molecules as mediators and catalysts for photocatalytic and electrocatalytic CO2 reduction

Xile Hu, Yeonji Oh

Reduction of CO2 by electrochemical and photoelectrochemical methods to produce carbon-rich fuels is a heavily pursued research theme. Most of the current efforts are focused on the development of transition-metal-based catalysts. In this tutorial review, ...
