Non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring by electrical impedance tomography
The monitoring of central hemodynamic parameters such as cardiac output (CO) and pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) is of paramount clinical importance to assess the health status of the cardiovascular system. However, their measurement requires the insertion ...
EPFL2017An original valveless artificial heart providing pulsatile flow tested in mock circulatory loops
François Avellan, Audrey Paulette Solange Maertens, Jonathan Emery
Purpose: We present the test bench results of a valveless total artificial heart that is potentially compatible with the pediatric population. Methods: The RollingHeart is a valveless volumetric pump generating pulsatile flow. It consists of a single spher ...
Wichtig Editore2017Escapement-Based Movements as Positioning Mechanisms: Design and Modelling
This work has been triggered by an industrial project targeting the design of a mechatronic injector for the medical field. Injections are usually performed using a syringe, a quite clumsy tool that transforms the injection task in a positioning one. The q ...
EPFL2016Contribution to the Ultra-Fast Charging of Electric Vehicles
Rosa Martel Danoary Tsirinomeny
It is generally agreed that one of the drawbacks of a conventional vehicle is the inability to always reach the best operating point of the engine and the inability to regenerate the kinetic energy. Meaning, even with the help of the gearbox or automatic t ...
EPFL2016Towards a thermally regenerative all-copper redox flow battery
An all-copper redox flow battery based on strong complexation of Cu+ with acetonitrile is demonstrated, exhibiting reasonable battery performance. More interestingly, the battery can be charged by heat sources of 100 degrees C, by distilling off the aceton ...
Royal Society of Chemistry2014A Demand-Response Calculus with Perfect Batteries
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Dan-Cristian Tomozei
We consider an electricity consumer equipped with a perfect battery, who needs to satisfy a non-elastic load, subject to external control signals. The control imposes a time-varying upper-bound on the instantaneous energy consumption (this is called ``Dema ...
2012Pressure and Flow Wave Propagation in Patient-Specific Models of the Arterial Tree
Blood flow in the arterial circulation induces hemodynamic forces that play an important role in various forms of vascular diseases. Temporal variation of the wall shear stress seems to play a significant role in atherogenesis and plaque stability. Flow in ...
EPFL2011Modeling of a vanadium redox flow battery electricity storage system
Today, the electricity industries are facing new challenges as the market is being liberalized and deregulated in many countries. Electricity storage is undoubtedly a disruptive technology that will play, in the near future, a major role in the fast develo ...
EPFL2009Optimization of the Operating Point of a Vanadium Redox Flow Battery
Modeling a vanadium redox flow battery (VRB) is intrinsically a multiphysics task based on electrochemistry and fluid mechanics. The electrochemical model predicts the stack voltage and determines the internal losses and the vanadium concentrations within ...
