Cement stress predictions after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty are correlated with preoperative glenoid bone quality

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Raphaël Rodolphe Obrist

Hypothesis: We hypothesized that biomechanical parameters typically associated with glenoid implant failure after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) would be correlated with preoperative glenoid bone quality. Methods: We developed an objective aut ...

Soil Moisture Estimation by SAR in Alpine Fields Using Gaussian Process Regressor Trained by Model Simulations

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Jelena Stamenkovic

In this paper, we address the problem of retrieving soil moisture over a grassland alpine area from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data using a statistical algorithm trained by simulations of a physical model. A time series of C-band VV-polarized Wide Swat ...

A model of urban scaling laws based on distance dependent interactions

João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda

Socio-economic related properties of a city grow faster than a linear relationship with the population, in a log–log plot, the so-called superlinear scaling. Conversely, the larger a city, the more efficient it is in the use of its infrastructure, leading ...

Caching Gaussians: Minimizing Total Correlation on the Gray–Wyner Network

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Guillaume Jean Op 't Veld

We study a caching problem that resembles a lossy Gray–Wyner network: A source produces vector samples from a Gaussian distribution, but the user is interested in the samples of only one component. The encoder first sends a cache message without any knowle ...

A rational synthesis of hierarchically porous, N-doped carbon from Mg-based MOFs: understanding the link between nitrogen content and oxygen reduction electrocatalysis

Pierre Mettraux, Ning Yan

Controlled mixtures of novel Mg-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were prepared, with H+ or K+ as counterions. A linear relation was found between synthesis pH and K/H ratio in the resultant mixture, establishing the tunability of the synthesis. Upon p ...

Innovative optical lactate biosensing through the design of nanostructured materials

Oswaldo Javier Pérez Anguiano

The scope of this thesis is the synthesis of nanostructured materials, their functionalization and use for optical lactate biosensing applications. Rapid detection of L-lactate is important in many applications in the clinical sector, in the food industry, ...

Multiscattering-enhanced optical probes for biosensing

Volodymyr Koman

Although reactive oxygen species (ROS) are an inescapable part of every living organism, we are only beginning to understand their functions and mechanics. As of now, we know that ROS are involved in cell signalling, stress-response and defence against pat ...

Degradation rates of benzotriazoles and benzothiazoles under UV-C irradiation and the advanced oxidation process UV/H2O2

Silvio Canonica, Urs von Gunten

Benzotriazoles (BTs) and benzothiazoles (BTHs) are extensively used chemicals found in a wide range of household and industrial products. They are chemically stable and are therefore ubiquitous in the aquatic environment. The present study focuses on the p ...

Pattern-oriented memory interpolation of sparse historical rainfall records

Anton Schleiss, Théodora Cohen Liechti, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

The pattern-oriented memory (POM) is a novel historical rainfall interpolation method that explicitly takes into account the time dimension in order to interpolate areal rainfall maps. The method is based on the idea that rainfall patterns exist and can be ...

A Novel Acute Retroviral Syndrome Severity Score Predicts the Key Surrogate Markers for HIV-1 Disease Progression

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Objective: Best long-term practice in primary HIV-1 infection (PHI) remains unknown for the individual. A risk-based scoring system associated with surrogate markers of HIV-1 disease progression could be helpful to stratify patients with PHI at highest ris ...

Oxygen Reduction at Soft Interfaces Catalyzed by In Situ-Generated Reduced Graphene Oxide

Hubert Girault, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Véronique Amstutz, Haiqiang Deng, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon

Face to face: Flakes of reduced graphene oxide, synthesized in situ at the liquid/liquid interface from a graphene-oxide precursor, are capable of catalyzing the biphasic reduction of protons to hydrogen peroxide in the presence of molecular oxygen and an ...

Multilevel Correlations in the Biological Phosphorus Removal Process: from Bacterial Enrichment to Conductivity-Based Metabolic Batch Tests and Polyphosphatase Assays

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, David Gregory Weissbrodt, Alessandro Brovelli, Alexandre Chabrelie, Jonathan May

Enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) from wastewater relies on the preferential selection of active polyphosphate-accumulating organisms (PAO) in the underlying bacterial community continuum. Efficient management of the bacterial resource requires ...
