A citizen-science initiative evaluates the impact of tire particles
Twenty volunteers spent six months learning about the scientific method through a citizen-science initiative led by EPFL. The initiative was part of a study to determine how the microplastic particles released by tire wear are affecting lakes and rivers in Vaud Canton.
Better prediction of epidemics
The reproduction number R is often used as an indicator to predict how quickly an infectious disease will spread. researchers have developed a mathematical model that is just as easy to use but enables more accurate predictions than R. Their model is based on a reproduction matrix that takes into account the heterogeneity of society.
New method detects corrosion in reinforced concrete, even in hard-to-reach places
Whether tunnels or retaining walls - many Swiss reinforced concrete structures from the 1960s to the 1980s are at risk. Corrosion can make them unstable. ETH start-up Talpa Inspection has now developed a solution to localise corrosion more easily, even in hard-to-reach places.
