Phraseology in the novel – PHRASEOROM
The chief goal of the PhraseoRom project has been to elaborate a structural and functional typology of lexico-syntactic constructions specific to English, French and German novelistic discourse. Drawing on large trilingual corpora of literary language, we have used corpus-linguistic (or, more precis
LOw-dimensional ferromagnetic units towards ValuablE Magneto-Electrics – LOVE-ME
Exacerbated Magneto-Electric Couplings : Despite their immense interest in data storage, the scope and applications of multiferroic compounds are to date penalized by the low polarization generated by magneto-electric (ME) couplings. We propose an original approach for the design of performing inorg
Process and aiding tools for response to call for bids – OPERA
OPERA works in a business-to-business (B2B) customer/supplier relationship, on the supplier side when drawing up a response to a call for tenders of the engineering-to-order type. In this case, the development and costing of the offer (cost, lead times, performance, etc.) is usually based on a preco
Perception and Handling enabled by Artificial tactile SEnsing – Phase
Every day, we manipulate dozens, even hundreds of objects, and for each interaction, finger movements are informed by tactile sensations. When we position a pencil in our hand or search for a key in our pocket, the mechanoreceptors buried in our skin inform us about the state of the object touched a
Bioinspired Structural Ceramic Composite – BICuIT
Mechanical strength and toughness are generally mutually exclusive in structural materials. Resolving this contradiction is a major challenge for many applications, especially in the energy and aerospace industries where there is a high demand for strong, stiff, damage-resistant refractory materials
A new methodology for efficient reduced basis reliability based design – ReBReD
Ensuring the reliability of a number of systems (aircraft, trains, nuclear power plants) is a critical issue, where many lives can be at stake. Over the past decades, advances in modeling, computing, and parallelization capabilities have made the modeling of increasingly complex structures operation
Using the most powerful explosion as probes of the high-redshift Universe – BEaPro
The goals of this project are: (a) to study the properties of an unbiased sample of LGRB host galaxies; (b) to combine the properties of the absorbing gas in the inter-stellar medium (ISM) with those of the ionized gas derived from the host galaxy spectroscopy. Our results will 1. allow a robust us
Voter turnout, abstention, mistrust and political toughening in France: comparative case studies – ALCoV
The ALCoV project (Localized and Comparative Analysis of Voting) is a research project coordinated by IRISSO- UMR CNRS 7170 (Coordination E. AGRIKOLIANSKY), associating 4 other laboratories: the CESSP - UMR 8209 - EHESS and University of Paris 1 (Sandrine LEVEQUE); MESOPOLHIS, UMR 7064, Sciences Po
Insecurity and spaces: social distribution and political participation – INSOCPOL
Spatial analysis is a time-honored thread of the observation of crime. The background of this interest was migration and those neighbourhoods where immigrants moved in. Focus on spaces has reemerged in particular in the last third of the 20th century through attention given to urban disorders. Studi
Super-resolution imaging of bacterial division – DIVinHD
Bacterial elongation and division result from synthesis and remodeling of the peptidoglycan (PG), a three-dimensional sugar and peptide network that surrounds the cell. The PG confers a cell shape adapted to the ecological niche of the bacterium, allowing it to feed, move and multiply in an optimal
