Reinforcement Learning for Outdoor Balloon Navigation: A Successful Controller for an Autonomous Balloon

Mirko Kovac, Simon Jeger

Autonomous ballooning allows for energy-efficient long-range missions but introduces significant challenges for planning and control algorithms, due to their single degree of actuation: vertical rate control through either buoyancy or vertical thrust. Late ...

The influence of water-saturation on the strength of volcanic rocks and the stability of lava domes

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Michael Heap

The rocks forming a volcanic edifice or dome are typically saturated or partially-saturated with water. However, most experiments aimed at better understanding the mechanical behaviour of volcanic rocks have been performed on dry samples, and therefore mos ...

Assessing sublimation during snow transport and sublimation effects on the isotopic composition of water vapor

Armin Sigmund

Sublimation influences the water storage in snow covers and glaciers, which is important for water use and projections of the sea level rise. Yet, it is challenging to quantify sublimation for large areas or in conditions of snow transport. In-situ measure ...

Design of a Hyperloop System MockUp

Mario Paolone, Denis Tudor

The thorough development of the hyperloop system does require the availability of reduced-scale models. They can be used for the fast prototyping of various components, as well as for studying critical phenomena that takes place in this peculiar transporta ...

The Canopy Pavilion: A lightweight shading structure using a deployable auxetic linkage membrane

Mark Pauly, Dieter Dietz, Florin Isvoranu, Tian Chen, Arthur François Blanc

We present the Canopy Pavilion, a lightweight shading structure for a social gathering space. The shading surface is realized as a tensioned auxetic linkage membrane, composed of two double-curved anticlastic layers separated by a compression pole. The mem ...

Deep Learning Enables Individual Xenograft Cell Classification in Histological Images by Analysis of Contextual Features

Michaël Unser, Cathrin Brisken, Daniel Sage, Olivier Burri, Martin Weigert, Fabio De Martino

Patient-Derived Xenografts (PDXs) are the preclinical models which best recapitulate inter- and intra-patient complexity of human breast malignancies, and are also emerging as useful tools to study the normal breast epithelium. However, data analysis gener ...

Three-dimensional and real-scale modeling of flow regimes in dense snow avalanches

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Betty Sovilla, Xingyue Li

Snow avalanches cause fatalities and economic loss worldwide and are one of the most dangerous gravitational hazards in mountainous regions. Various flow behaviors have been reported in snow avalanches, making them challenging to be thoroughly understood a ...

How building energy models take the local climate into account in an urban context – A review

Dasaraden Mauree

The urban context is often simplified or neglected in Building Energy Models (BEMs) due to the difficulties of taking accurately into account all the heat fluxes emanating from the environment. Oversimplifying the urban context can impact the accuracy of t ...

Prediction of hydro-acoustic resonances in hydropower plants by a new approach based on the concept of swirl number

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry, Sébastien Alligné, Loïc Andolfatto, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior

Hydropower plant units operating in off-design conditions are subject to cavitation flow instabilities, potentially inducing hydro-acoustic resonances under certain conditions. They can be predicted by using one-dimensional numerical models of hydropower p ...

Reduced scale model testing for prediction of eigenfrequencies and hydro-acoustic resonances in hydropower plants operating in off-design conditions

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Christian Landry, Sébastien Alligné, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior

The massive penetration of the electrical network by renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, pushes the operators to extend hydropower plant units operating range to meet the transmission system operator requirements. However, in off-design opera ...

Concrete Dam Displacement Prediction Based on an ISODATA-GMM Clustering and Random Coefficient Model

Zhenzhu Meng

Displacement data modelling is of great importance for the safety control of concrete dams. The commonly used artificial intelligence method modelled the displacement data at each monitoring point individually, i.e., the data correlations between the monit ...

New insight in Francis turbine cavitation vortex rope: role of the runner outlet flow swirl number

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Andres Müller, Christian Landry, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior

At part load operation, Francis turbines experience the development of a cavitation vortex rope in the draft tube, whose precession acts as a pressure excitation source. In case of resonance, the resulting pressure pulsations lead to unacceptable torque an ...

Measurements of Cavitation Compliance in the Draft Tube Cone of a Reduced Scale Francis Turbine Operating at Part Load

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Christian Landry, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior

Francis turbines operating at part load conditions typically experience a cavitation vortex rope immediately at the runner outlet. As the compliance of this cavitation flow is much higher than the one in cavitation-free conditions, a decrease in the value ...
