Dung beetles for agricultural education – ColCopEA
In response to a request made by students in agricultural education (AE), a consortium involving AE, MNHN and CEFE was created in 2021, in order to study the complex and poorly-known relationship between livestock breeding and coprophagous beetles communities. Over the course of two years of collabo
Prediction,reduction and study of damages impacting 3D weaving – PREDICTISS-3D
The objective of the PREDICTISS-3D project is to identify and quantify the influence of product and process parameters on the degradation of dense fabrics to reduce/eliminate mechanical performance losses of the final product (reinforcement then composite). Thus, the strategy used consists of predic
Citizen diagnosis of the sound environment of Rezé – Sonorezé II
The regulation of noise environments is a major issue in urban planning, against a context of urban densification, increased mobility and strong social demand for peace and quiet. But this regulation comes up against a gap between, on the one hand, quantitative, objectified and normative approaches
Collaborative citizenship and inquiry process (in schools) – CICODEQ
Societies are increasingly socio-culturally diverse, and the issue of citizenship among young people, which is closely linked to the question of interculturality (Pretceille, 2018; Zapata-Barrero, 2015), is a priority for the countries of the European Union. It also has a direct impact on the life o
Representations on wellbeing in agricultural environments – RURAL
Within the farming community itself, different groups are represented, facing different challenges at both a social and psychosocial level. Mental health is one of these in the agricultural world, in the face of changes in society and in the agricultural model (Cabanel & Férat, 2021). Mental health
Exploring Gender Inequalities in the Digital World through Computational Sociolinguistics – EGICS
According to an internet adage, “there are no girls on the internet”. As provocative as it may seem, there is more than a grain of truth in it. Far from being the “great equalizer” it was hoped to be in the early 1990s (Wojahn, 1994), i. e. a space where there would be less sexism and racism than in
Left-wing populism and ‘popular environmentalism’: a comparative analysis of the Belgian (PTB), French (LFI), German (Die Linke), and Spanish (Podemos/Sumar) cases – LeftPopEnv
Over the past decade, in Europe the rise of populist parties and the growing importance of climate issues on the public agenda have been increasingly well documented in the academic, media and political field. However, they are most often analysed separately. Some recent academic studies have sought
Mixed Research Community on Mental health Peer-support – CMR-PASM
Context Mental health practices are evolving towards the paradigm of recovery, focused on the values and needs of persons living with mental health difficulties, in a partnership approach. Peer support is now recognized as a relevant tool to develop recovery-oriented practices in mental health by n
Fractal models and wavelet analysis for the characterization of engineering surfaces – FRACLETTES
The surface finish of an object influences its physical properties. For example, uneven (rough) surfaces in tribology can generate significant friction. In thermal engineering, they allow for more efficient heat dissipation. Currently, these various features are guaranteed on surfaces, more or less
Photodesorption induced by UV, X-rays and Electrons on Surfaces – PIXyES
The objectives of the PIXyES project consist in providing new results, both experimental and theoretical, concerning photo-induced processes in molecular solids that can have a significant impact on the physics and chemistry of the interstellar medium. The project focuses on the phenomena of photo-i
