Small-Scale Variability of the Raindrop Size Distribution and Its Effect on Areal Rainfall Retrieval

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

The drop size distribution (DSD) describes the microstructure of liquid precipitation. The high variability of the DSD reflects the variety of microphysical processes controlling raindrop properties and affects the retrieval of rainfall. An analysis of the ...

Using Mobile Eye-Trackers to Unpack the Perceptual Benefits of a Tangible User Interface for Collaborative Learning

Pierre Dillenbourg, Kshitij Sharma, Guillaume Zufferey, Sébastien Cuendet, Bertrand Roland Schneider

In this study, we investigated the way users memorize, analyze, collaborate, and learn new concepts on a Tangible User Interface (TUI). Twenty-seven pairs of apprentices in logistics (N = 54) interacted with an interactive simulation of a warehouse. Their ...

LCA as key factor for implementation of inertia in a low carbon performance driven design: the case of the smart living building in Fribourg, Switzerland

Marilyne Andersen, Emmanuel Rey, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Endrit Hoxha, Arianna Brambilla

The building sector is known as a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption. These impacts are commonly evaluated by life cycle assessment (LCA), which assess the potential impacts of a building from the construction to the ...

Punching strength of continuous flat slabs

Jürgen Einpaul

Reinforced concrete slabs with uniform thickness are common in residential and commercial buildings but can also be found in other types of structures. Such slabs are susceptible to punching shear failures, where a supporting column penetrates through the ...

Dynamics of the cavitation precessing vortex rope for Francis turbines at part load operating conditions

Arthur Tristan Favrel

The massive penetration of the existing electrical grid by renewable energy sources requires a continuous extension of the operating range of hydroelectric powerplants, which can lead to cavitation flow instabilities inducing undesirable mechanical vibrati ...

Scale Model Evaluation and Optimization of Sodar Acoustic Baffles

Fernando Porté Agel, Adrien Chabbey

A 21: 1 scaled sodar, operating at 40 kHz, has been built and tested in the laboratory. Sodars, which use sound scattered by turbulence to profile the lowest few hundred meters of the atmosphere, need good acoustic shielding to diminish annoyance and to re ...

On the Symbiosis of People and Building : The Perfect Slum

Sytse de Maat

Controversies continue to exist between architects and the public about what is a good building. High-style modern architecture is often disliked by the public. Moreover, in everyday life people blame the architect for everything they find impractical in a ...

Stochastic Model Predictive Control for Building Climate Control

Colin Neil Jones

In this brief paper, a Stochastic Model Predictive Control formulation tractable for large-scale systems is developed. The proposed formulation combines the use of Affine Disturbance Feedback, a formulation successfully applied in robust control, with a de ...
