Assessment of the performance of numerical modeling in reproducing a replenishment of sediments in a water-worked channel

Anton Schleiss, Carmelo Juez Jiménez, Elena Battisacco

The artificial replenishment of sediment is used as a method to re-establish sediment continuity down- stream of a dam. However, the impact of this technique on the hydraulics conditions, and resulting bed morphology, is yet to be understood. Several numer ...

Altitude: architecture et environnement de haute montagne

Estelle Lépine

At the centre of the research is the preservation of the countryside which is highlighted and studied through an architectural approach which focuses on cabins in the high mountains. The projects must reflect upon territorial, global and sustainable aspect ...

Sediment replenishment: Influence of the geometrical configuration on the morphological evolution of channel-bed

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Elena Battisacco

Dams trap sediment in the upstream reservoir, which may lead to river bed armoring, streambank erosion and failure, channel incision and reduction of the morphological diversity in the downstream river reaches. The replenishment of sediment is a mitigation ...

Framework for efficient synthesis of spatially embedded morphologies

Lida Kanari, Julian Charles Shillcock, Liesbeth Maria L Vanherpe, Guy Antoine Atenekeng Kahou, Juan Pablo Palacios

Many problems in science and engineering require the ability to grow tubular or polymeric structures up to large volume fractions within a bounded region of three-dimensional space. Examples range from the construction of fibrous materials and biological c ...

Formation of in-volume nanogratings with sub-100-nm periods in glass by femtosecond laser irradiation

Yves Bellouard, Ya Cheng

We present direct experimental observation of the morphological evolution during the formation of nanogratings with sub-100-nm periods with the increasing number of pulses. Theoretical simulation shows that the constructive interference of the scattering l ...

Morphological Evolution of Physical Robots through Model-Free Phenotype Development

Simon Lukas Hauser

Artificial evolution of physical systems is a stochastic optimization method in which physical machines are iteratively adapted to a target function. The key for a meaningful design optimization is the capability to build variations of physical machines th ...

Silver nanoparticle toxicity and association with the alga Euglena gracilis

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Xiaomei Li, Laetitia Bernard

The impact of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on aquatic algae has largely been studied with model species that possess a rigid cell wall. Here, we explored the interactions of AgNPs with Euglena gracilis, a green alga having no cell wall but a pellicle. The ...

Hydrothermal Synthesis of SrTiO3: Role of Interfaces

Andrea Testino, Agnese Carino, Paolo Nanni

The hydrothermal synthesis of SrTiO3 in a Sr(OH)(2)/NaOH solution by reaction of four different single crystalline titanium precursors (anatase, rutile, sodium titanate, and hydrogen titanate) having the same nanowire morphology was investigated under stag ...
