Influence of density of large stems on the blocking probability at spillways

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Paloma Furlan

Dam safety is strongly linked to the probability of occurrence of large floods. Floods can transport large wood (LW) into reservoirs and towards water release structures as spillways. Due to blocking and clogging, LW may significantly influence the dischar ...

A Computational Approach for the Design of Epidural Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation Strategies to Enable Locomotion after Spinal Cord Injury

Emanuele Formento

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major cause of paralysis with currently no effective treatment. Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbar spinal cord has been shown to restore locomotion in animal models of SCI, but has not yet reached the same lev ...

Performance monitoring for brain-computer-interface actions

Olaf Blanke, Aaron Schurger, Steven Gale, Olivia Gozel

When presented with a difficult perceptual decision, human observers are able to make metacognitive judgements of subjective certainty. Such judgements can be made independently of and prior to any overt response to a sensory stimulus, presumably via inter ...

Child-Robot Spatial Arrangement in a Learning by Teaching Activity

Pierre Dillenbourg, Wafa Monia Benkaouar Johal, Alexis David Jacq

In this paper, we present an experiment in the context of a child-robot interaction where we study the influence of the child-robot spatial arrangement on the child’s focus of attention and the perception of the robot’s performance. In the “Co-Writer learn ...

Local tributary widening for river rehabilitation

Anton Schleiss, Koen Blanckaert, Marcelo Leite Ribeiro

The hydro-morpho-sedimentary processes in confluence hydrodynamic zones (CHZ) subject to a local widening of the tributary were investigated in a series of laboratory experiments that were representative of the 20 major confluences of the Upper Rhone River ...

Start-up scenario studies in gyrotron oscillator using a novel linear and spectral code

Stefano Alberti, Minh Quang Tran, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Jérémy Genoud, Trach-Minh Tran

A linear and spectral model has recently been developed [1], describing the self-consistent wave-particle interaction in a gyrotron oscillator. The spectral approach, compared to commonly used time-evolution approaches, has the possibility to describe all ...

Learning with Surprise : Theory and Applications

Mohammadjavad Faraji

Everybody knows what it feels to be surprised. Surprise raises our attention and is crucial for learning. It is a ubiquitous concept whose traces have been found in both neuroscience and machine learning. However, a comprehensive theory has not yet been de ...

Signaling and Self-regulation in Venture Capital : Evidence from Investments in the Clean Technology Sector

Giovanni Liotta

This thesis proposes three studies that provide novel empirical evidence on how different types of VCs' characteristics signal the quality of an entrepreneurial venture and influence investment strategies of funds subject to self-regulation. In the first s ...
