Querying the Digital Archive of Science: Distant Reading, Semantic Modelling and Representation of Knowledge

The archive of science is a place where scientific practices are sedimented in the form of drafts, protocols of rejected hypotheses and failed experiments, obsolete instruments, outdated visualizations and other residues. Today, just as science goes more a ...

Extracting transport channel transmissions in scanning tunneling microscopy using superconducting excess current

Klaus Kern, Markus Etzkorn, Jacob Senkpiel

Transport through quantum coherent conductors, such as atomic junctions, is described by conduction channels. Information about the number of channels and their transmissions can be extracted from various sources, such as multiple Andreev reflections, dyna ...

Electro-Adhesive Tubular Clutch for Variable-Stiffness Robots

Dario Floreano, Yi Sun, Hoang Vu Phan, Krishna Manaswi Digumarti, Omar Aloui

Electro-adhesive clutches have become effective tools for variable stiffness functions in many robotic systems due to their light weight, high speed and strong brake force. In this paper, we present a novel, tubular design of an electro-adhesive clutch. Ou ...

Large scale 3-dimensional atomistic simulations of screw dislocations interacting with coherent twin boundaries in Al, Cu and Ni under uniaxial and multiaxial loading conditions

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Satish I Rao

Large scale 3D atomistic simulations are performed to study the interaction between a curved dislocation with a dominant screw character and a Coherent Twin Boundary (CTB). Three FCC metals (Al, Cu and Ni) are addressed using 6 embedded-atom method (EAM) p ...

Different approaches to improve energy consumption of battery electric buses

Francesco Baldi

Transportation electrification is increasing and recently more focus has been directed on heavy vehicles and especially on city buses. Battery electric buses are inherently more energy efficient than diesel buses and the efficiency can be further increased ...

Cooperative data exchange based on MDS codes

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Su Li

The coded cooperative data exchange problem is studied for the fully connected network. In this problem, each node initially only possesses a subset of the K packets making up the file. Nodes make broadcast transmissions that are received by all other node ...

Étude des engrenages de microtechnique

Quentin Theurillat-Bonjour

The research presented in this thesis addresses the design of gear drives for micro engineering applications, and was performed in collaboration with a watch manufacturer. Gears have long been found in many fields of mechanical engineering. Their use in wa ...

Metallized Gratings Enable Color Effects and Floating Screen Films by First-Order Diffraction

Olivier Martin, Martin Stalder

A new concept for generating visual effects with metallized gratings is introduced. Shadow evaporation of aluminum onto dielectric gratings is shown to produce strongly asymmetric color effects. Zero-order effects are combined with +/- first-order transmis ...

Up-scalable plasmonic and diffractive nanostructures

Fabian Michael Lütolf

Since most of the academic photonic and plasmonic nanostructures are based on slow and expensive electron beam lithography processes, there is a need for innovative alternatives suitable for industrial manufacturing. Large areas need to be patterned with a ...

Device-to-Device Assisted Video Transmission

Laura Toni, Wenwen Zhou

To increase spectrum efficiency, researchers envi- sion a device-to-device (D2D) communication system in which a closely located mobile device pair may share the same spectrum with a cellular user. By opportunistically choosing the frequency, the D2D pair ...

Gaussian Broadcast Channel With Feedback

Sibi Raj Bhaskaran Pillai

For a Gaussian broadcast channel, it is known that: the capacity region in general is enlarged in the presence of feedback from all the receivers; and in the physically degraded case, feedback does not enlarge the capacity region. It is shown that the capa ...

A Closed Loop Control Strategy for a Frequency-Only Converter with High Efficiency

Alfred Rufer, Aziza Benaboud

Many electric power generators use gas turbines as power sources, coupled through a mechanical gearbox in order to adapt their synchronous speed to the optimal rotation speed of the turbine. This paper proposes to replace the mechanical gearbox with a flex ...

Dynamics of torque control continuously variable transmissions

Robert Fuchs

With the increasing concerns in the impact of automotive emissions of CO2 and NOx on the environment combined with today's speculation on oil crude supply, the need to find solutions reducing the fuel consumption and emission of tomorrow's cars is more tha ...
