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.
The subject of this project is to develop a high performance air water heat pump which is able to be introducted in the retrofit market. The system requirements of this market are heating temperatures of 65°C, at ambient temperatures descending until -12°C ...
The principle of air compression can be utilized for the storage of electrical energy, with variable properties from the point of view of the energy efficiency. For the involved thermodynamic phenomena different approaches and realized systems lead to more ...
We discuss different composite plasmonic nanostructures, which optical properties can be tuned by displacing some of their parts at the nanoscale. The actuation of these structures with MEMs will define new optical functionalities. ...

We are developing haptic interfaces compatible with functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) for neuroscience studies. The presented prototype with one rotary degree of freedom is actuated by a traveling wave ultrasonic motor operating under admittance ...
Modern applications in industry, navigation and medicine demand small and sensitive magnetic field sensors. In this thesis we have developed a new planar micro fluxgate magnetometer. High resolution, low power consumption and orthogonal fields detection ma ...
This thesis presents a system approach with the aim to develop improved concepts for small capacity, high temperature lift air-water heat pumps. These are intended to replace fuel fired heating systems in the residential sector, which leads to a major redu ...
In this paper we present a method for predicting nonlinear distortion in electronic circuits using the Volterra series. Simple expressions for the distortion in a Common-Emitter stage are determined. Designers may use these expressions to get a quick insig ...
Inductive proximity sensors are widely used for the contactless measurement of object or target displacement and position in numerous technical products and systems. They are found in various application domains such as transportation, robots, assembly lin ...
Actuation systems for few cubic millimeter sized mobile autonomous robots are subject to severe constraints in terms of e.g. size, fabrication or power consumption. Also the onboard electronics has limited performance due to both size and power restriction ...
Cities are complex dynamic entities. From a thermodynamic perspective, they represent open systems, constantly importing and exporting energy and matter across their boundaries; the output invariably being less ordered due to irreversible internal processe ...
