Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a new approach that enables the service life of reinforced concrete to be predicted based on weather conditions. This could enable engineers to use low-carbon concrete more widely without creating tomorrow’s maintenance problems.
Six ETH Zurich researchers, working in the areas of artificial intelligence, robotics, biomedicine, chemistry and statistics, are being awarded prestigious Starting Grants from the European Research Council.
A new method allows whole legumes to be converted into tasty products with a fibrous structure. The technique is so simple that it can even be applied at home.
