50 years of behavioral models for transportation and logistics
Michel Bierlaire, Léa Massé Ricard
Fifty years ago, transportation and logistics problems were primarily analyzed either from a supply-side or a demand-side perspective, with the fields of operations research and demand modeling evolving separately. Since then, there has been a growing inte ...
2024Modeling the Shape Evolution of Selective Area Grown Zn3P2 Nanoislands
Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Elias Zsolt Stutz, Jean-Baptiste Leran, Mahdi Zamani, Simon Robert Escobar Steinvall, Vladimir Dubrovskii, Rajrupa Paul
Selective area growth of zinc phosphide (Zn3P2) on InP provides a pathway to high-quality semiconductor nanostructures and textured thin films made of earth-abundant elements. In the precoalescence stage, Zn3P2 emerges in the form of nanoislands undergoing ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2021Considerations of the Impacts of Cell-Specific Growth and Production Rate on Clone Selection-A Simulation Study
For the manufacturing of complex biopharmaceuticals using bioreactors with cultivated mammalian cells, high product concentration is an important objective. The phenotype of the cells in a reactor plays an important role. Are clonal cell populations showin ...
MDPI2021Flexible application of biogas upgrading membranes for hydrogen recycle in power-to-methane processes
Oliver Kröcher, Andreas Gantenbein
Direct methanation of biogas converts the CO2 in raw-biogas to methane, enabling higher methane yield and an elelctricity storage option via Power-to-Gas. As the thermodynamic equilibrium limits the methane yield, unreacted hydrogen has to be removed and r ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2021Lateral variations and vertical structure of the microbial methane cycle in the sediment of Lake Onego (Russia)
Natacha Tofield-Pasche, Nathalie Dubois
The significance of methane production by lakes to the global production of greenhouse gas is well acknowledged while underlying processes sustaining the lacustrine methane budget remain largely unknown. We coupled biogeochemical data to functional and phy ...
2019Liquidity, Innovation, And Endogenous Growth
Semyon Malamud, Francesca Maria Zucchi
We build a model of endogenous, innovation-driven growth in which innovative firms have costly access to outside financing and hoard cash reserves to maintain financial flexibility. We show that financing frictions slow down Schumpeterian creative destruct ...
2019Socio-economic determinants of sprawl: causes and consequences of urban growth in Swiss municipalities
In Switzerland, as elsewhere, over the past decades, urban areas have spread outwards â consuming the surrounding countryside in the process. The result has been an urban growth associated with negative effects such as the loss of cultivated land.
Sprawl ...
EPFL2019The phantom midge menace: Migratory Chaoborus larvae maintain poor ecosystem state in eutrophic inland waters
Chaoborus spp. (phantom midge) are prevalent in eutrophic inland waters. In Lake Soppen, Switzerland, C. flavicans larvae diurnally migrate between the methane-rich, oxygen-depleted hypolimnion and sediments, and the methane-poor, oxygen-rich epilimnion. U ...
2018Tuning growth direction of catalyst-free InAs(Sb) nanowires with indium droplets
Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Gözde Tütüncüoglu, Martin George Friedl, Heidi Andrea Potts, Nicholas Paul Morgan
The need for indium droplets to initiate self-catalyzed growth of InAs nanowires has been highly debated in the last few years. Here, we report on the use of indium droplets to tune the growth direction of self-catalyzed InAs nanowires. The indium droplets ...
Institute of Physics2017Capital goods, measured TFP and growth: The case of Spain
The effect of investing in equipment and/or structures on TFP and long run growth is investigated here. We argue that economies can grow in spite of stagnant TFP if the investment rate is inefficiently high. We study the case of Spain where real GDP per wo ...
