Steps towards a 2000 Watt-Society. Developing a White Paper on Research & Development of Energy-Efficient Technologies
Graph Chatbot
Chattez avec Graph Search
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.
A fundamental requirement for a renewable energy generation technology is that it should produce more energy during its lifetime than is required to manufacture it. In this study we evaluate the primary energy requirements of a prospective renewable energy ...
The sun is the biggest known source of energy in our solar system. We feel its strength when it gets hot during the the day and we notice its absence during the night when we feel cold. So as to be less dependent on the sun as an energy source, we implemen ...
We have demonstrated theoretically that it is possible to use the resonant coupling of exciton-polaritons in a planar microcavity and Tamm plasmons at a metal film on the surface of the structure to provide lateral spatial control of the exciton-polaritons ...
The Praille-Acacias-Vernets suburb, located in Geneva, Switzerland, is today considered as an outworn city area (2.3 km(2)). It consists of parking lots, industries, businesses and marshalling yards. The Geneva Government decided to remodel this suburb to ...
Compliant actuation contributes enormously in legged locomotion robotics since it is able to alleviate control efforts in improving the robot’s adaptability and energy efficiency. In this paper, we present a novel design of a variable stiffness rotary actu ...
Even if supercapacitors present a reduced energy density, they enable to store a significant amount of energy, which leads to a significant autonomy for applications with reduced energy needs. The main advantage of supercapacitors is there to compensate a ...
We correct typos in eq. (2.41) and (2.42) of ref. [1]. This has several repercussions for the equations of section 2.3, but none for the subsequent sections or for the conclusions of the paper ...
In this paper we investigate the impact of potential hardware misbehavior induced by reliability issues and scaled voltages in wireless body sensor network (WBSN) nodes. Our study reveals the inherent resilience of popular algorithms in cardiac monitoring ...
Low-carbon energy innovation and implementation is essential to combat climate change, promote economic competitiveness, and achieve energy security. Our study of clean energy patenting in the United States is undertaken to elicit fundamental trends and im ...
