Rheology of Cystic Fibrosis Sputum
(2018)People with cystic fibrosis (CF) suffer from a sticky and thick sputum, which obstructs airways and impedes clearance and thus can cause chronic lung infections. Gel-forming mucins are a main component in the sputum and they are critical to the onset of the disease as well as in determining sputum flow. Rheology is used to study viscoelastic properties of CF sputum and can help to gain insight in flow properties during respiratory clearance ...Conference Poster -

The Potential of Residential Rooftop Photovoltaic Energy to Charge Electric Cars for Daily Use
(2018)The transport sector is responsible for 36% of the Swiss total annual energy demand. If the transport sector is electrified, significant additional power production capabilities are required. Photovoltaic (PV) energy is the renewable energy source with the highest remaining potential in Switzerland. However, due to its fluctuating power production, it is unclear how PV can contribute to fuel electric vehicles (EV). In this work, we analyze ...Conference Poster -

The keyword often used in this context is partial underground cabling, as the Swiss jurisprudence compels grid planners to suggest not only an overhead line but also a partial underground cabling when a new trans-mission line is planned. However, where can the areas suitable for partial underground ...Conference Poster -
