High spatial resolution distributed and dynamic strain sensing using direct detection

A distributed dynamic strain sensing system based on frequency-scanned phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry is proposed and demonstrated. It demonstrates a record spatial resolution of 20 cm, compared with other direct-detection dynamic strain ...

Mapping quality prediction for RTK/PPK-equipped micro-drones operating in complex natural environment

Jan Skaloud, Davide Antonio Cucci, Laurent Valentin Jospin, Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Drone mapping with GNSS-assisted photogrammetry is a highly efficient method for surveying small -or medium- sized areas. However, the mapping quality is not intuitively predictable, particularly in complex environments (with steep and cluttered terrain), ...

On the adjustment, calibration and orientation of drone photogrammetry and laser-scanning

Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Centimetre level precision mapping is essential for many applications such as land-use, infrastructure inspection, cultural heritage preservation, and construction site monitoring. However, the acquisition and its preparation (in particular the setting of ...

Short spatial resolutions retrieval from a long pulse BOTDA trace

Luc Thévenaz, Simon Adrien Zaslawski, Zhisheng Yang, Sheng Wang

A novel, to the best of our knowledge, postprocessing technique is proposed to extract with a flexible and variable spatial resolution the information from Brillouin optical time-domain analyzers, obtained using a pulse longer than the acoustic settling ti ...

Subcellular Chemical Imaging: New Avenues in Cell Biology

Melissa Kathleen Passarelli

To better understand the physiology and acclimation capability of the cell, one of the great challenges of the future is to access the interior of a cell and unveil its chemical landscape (composition and distribution of elements and molecules). Chemical i ...

Stochastic Super-Resolution for Downscaling Time-Evolving Atmospheric Fields With a Generative Adversarial Network

Alexis Berne, Daniele Nerini, Jussi Sakari Leinonen

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been recently adopted for super-resolution, an application closely related to what is referred to as "downscaling'' in the atmospheric sciences: improving the spatial resolution of low-resolution images. The abil ...

Potential and uncertainty of wind energy in the Swiss Alps

Albertus Christiaan Kruyt

Switzerland has committed itself to an ambitious energy strategy. It aims to replace the exist- ing nuclear generation capacity with predominantly indigenous renewable resources. Wind power could play a significant role in this transition, yet the wind res ...
