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.
In the context of climate change mitigation, different alternatives to reduce the atmospheric CO2 emissions are; increasing the efficiency, switching to renewable resource and reduce emissions from fossil resources by CO2 capture and storage (CCS) . Hydrog ...
We propose a simple microfluidic device for protein preconcentration based on the electrokinetic trapping principle. It comprises a narrow Nafion strip that is simply cut from a commercial membrane and is integrated into a molded poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PD ...
We present a novel optofluidic differential method for carrying out absorbance spectroscopy of subnanolitre volumes of liquid samples on a microfluidic chip. Due to the reduction of liquid volume, the absorbance detection in microfluidics is often hindered ...
A solid oxide fuel (SOFC) cogenerates heat and electricity with high efficiency. Electricity is produced by the electrochemical reaction of a fuel (H2, CO, CH4) and an oxidant gas (O2, air). The SOFC standard design is based on an anode-supported electroly ...
With the growing importance of miniaturized energy applications and the development of micro Total Analysis Systems (μTAS), we have realized microfluidic devices, namely, magnetic micropumps, microfluidic fuel cells and membrane-based protein preconcentrat ...
This thesis reports on the integration of continuous-flow cell separation method for lab-on-a-chip applications. Cell separation methods are widely used in biology to prepare samples prior to analysis. There is a need for a highly sensitive separation meth ...
In this study nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (nHA) was synthesized and characterized by means of FT-IR, XRD and TEM techniques and a series of proton exchange membranes based on Nafion (R) and nHA were fabricated via solvent casting method. Thermogravimetr ...
Hydrogen (H2) has raised considerable interest as a future energy carrier in its application to fuel cell driven vehicles, as it is absolutely free of polluting emissions. However, it is flammable in air and difficult to contain, for which reason innovativ ...
Correctly controlling a fuel cell system and maintaining correct operating conditions, particularly under dynamic load variations, is difficult without advanced, multivariable control systems. In order to design and implement such controllers, an appropria ...
The paper describes a test set-up, based on the use of a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), developed for the evaluation of the operational characteristics of an autonomous Auxiliary Power Unit (APU). The considered APU includes a 4.8 kW commercial Proton Exc ...
