It used to be that academic seminars involved traveling to a host institution to deliver a talk and meet with colleagues (do you remember those days?!). Times have changed, at least temporarily, but this situation is also opening opportunities. We invite you for a virtual tour of our Flexible Structures Laboratory at EPFL in Switzerland. We will show you ...

Our aim is to understand processes that lead to the emergence of catalytic function though direct observation using a combination of operando scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Starting with simple model catalysts, such as polycrystalline metal foils, we observe...

The fatigue life prediction of cast materials is usually based on structural-mechanical models, which are often fed by material parameters from standards. Here, batch-specific influences are generally neglected, since the characterization effort is only worthwhile in exceptional cases. This work discusses ...

From trees to herbs, from vines to shrubs, and from the largest flower in the world to minuscule tissue masses within the host bark. Parasitic flowering plants have evolved 12 times independently, leading to ...
