With the increasing integration of Power Electronics Converters (PECs) into electrical grids, addressing stability and power quality issues has become crucial. The complexity and variability of PECs and their control interactions can significantly impact grid performance, especially under weak grid conditions. This ...

Blockchains and distributed ledger technologies are the foundation of a novel system architecture that merges security aspects like robustness and transparency with econocmic aspects like incentivization and decentralized finance. The scope of the project is to develop and improve the building blocks for ...

This project deals with improved monitoring of generators and especially of stator insulation by the means of partial discharge measurement. The target is to automatize the condition monitoring of partial discharge with existing systems as well evaluate new measurement systems.

This project involves the development of a bio-based and biodegradable alternative to fossil plastics through the use of guar gum. This can close material cycles and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Objectives of the project: Establish a systematic dialogue between the technology developers and researchers and the elderly/healthcare institution stakeholders (including medical, care, and service personnel, management, patients, and their families) in both regions and develop a suitable international community ...

Development of methods for the sustainable production of carotenoids from microalgae. Strengthening the existing partnership with the Iranian project partner.

The research project together with Momentum Collaboration investigates how decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) can be used as innovative tools for organizing project work in situational networks. The aim is to develop a new methodology that goes beyond traditional project work and incorporates ...

The project explores the innovative use of heat generated by ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits) and GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) for home heating and sanitary water systems. This "Data Center at Home (DH System)" model aims to revolutionize traditional heating systems, particularly for houses ...

Cocoa liquors with flavour properties will be investigated by the methodologies of the Sensomics apporach and Sensory evaluation. The results of the investigation will be used for process and product development.

The goal of this project is to perform a feasibility study on realizing of a virtual oenologist, an integrated computational framework to assess wine quality and taste through purely optical analyses. The goal will be achieved by combining two optical spectroscopy techniques (fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy) ...

Preparatory phase BioPrint is an inter- and transdisciplinary research collaboration with the overarching purpose to improve the management of biodiversity footprints of product groups as well as individual products along value chains. Currently, biodiversity impact assessments take a top-down modelling approach ...

Resistance training (RT) is widely known to improve health and athlete performance by increasing muscle mass, maximal strength and power output (Beattie et al., 2014; Schoenfeld et al., 2016; Suchomel et al., 2016). The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends RT at least twice a week for adults. RT is crucial ...

As data consolidates into relational databases, the need for text-to-SQL systems grows, democratizing access to information by allowing natural language queries. The potential for improvements brought by Large Language Models (LLMs) in text-to-SQL systems is mostly assessed on monolingual English datasets. However, ...

Within the National Competence Centre of Research (NCCR) Catalysis (Phase II), we will work on the following two topics: Algorithm-aided directed evolution of biocatalysis Biocatalytic C-H functionalization of sustainable building blocks

Switzerland is under an ongoing energy transition exemplified by the enforcement of its Swiss Energy Strategy 2050, the long term climate policy and the 2050 net?zero target, which are policies tailored to reach a net?zero power grid by 2050. Although similar trends are followed worldwide, emerging nations such as ...

A high level of stress is documented among nursing students, which has a negative impact on their health, satisfaction and ability to remain in the profession. Problematic interactions that place high demands on emotional self-control are considered to be a major stressor. Measures to promote competence in dealing ...
