Simulations and Observations of Uranus and Neptune atmospheric Dynamics – SOUND
We aim to better understand the atmospheric dynamics of the two so-called ice giant planets Uranus and Neptune. We are particularly interested in understanding the small-scale convective and stormy processes, the large-scale circulation, the transport of species, the role of wave activity, possible
Simulation and Imaging for Mitral Regurgitation – SIMR
This project aims to contribute to this major public health problem with the following two objectives: (i) Evaluate the impact of preoperative fibrosis on left ventricular remodeling after mitral repair surgery in a clinical study involving 15 patients. (ii) Develop numerical tools for the simulatio
Simulation Analytics and Metamodel-based solutions for Optimization, Uncertainty and Reliability AnalysIs – SAMOURAI
The project's main objectives are to develop innovative simulation and surrogate-based optimization methodologies while pushing back their current limits of performance and applicability, guided by real-world applications. These applications are related to the design and risk assessment of critical
Silicon-based polymers by catalysed dehydropolymerisations – POLCADE
The chemistry of the large alkaline-earth metals (Ae, where Ae = Ca, Sr, Ba) is burgeoning. Many synthetic challenges persist to this day, although Ae complexes act as excellent catalysts for a plethora of organic reactions. In another field, silicones exhibit good fire-resistant properties owing to
SiC/Si3N4 MATRIX FOR CMC 2700F : OPTIMIZATION OF A HYBRID PIP-CVI PROCESS AS A TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTION TO WORK AT HIGH TEMPERATURES WITHOUT COLLAPSING – MATRIX_2
To face the energy, environmental and economic challenges of air transportation, significant efforts are devoted to the next generation of aircraft turbojets, particularly in the field of advanced materials and their elaboration processes. The main objective is a decarbonisation of air transportatio
Short time scale landscape evolution and topographic signature of extreme climatic and tectonic events – TOPO-Extreme
We aim to investigate the feedbacks between river high-discharge events and earthquake cycle deformation, which are the elementary driving processes linking climate, tectonics and landscapes. This approach is complex and requires deciphering the signature of climatic and tectonic processes (1) from
Shared-Control Algorithms for Human/Multi-Robot Cooperation – MULTISHARED
Robots perform actions in the real world according to their perception and understanding of the environment, as they physically interact with it. The ensemble of these abilities of sensing, interpreting, modelling, predicting, and interacting with the physical world are concrete applications of Arti
Shaping inequalities or building social bonds? Ceremonial economy under and after socialism in Central Asia (1960s-2020s) – CEREMONIAC
Life-cycle ceremonies and festive sociability spending; a growing phenomenon among Central Asian populations (in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan) has taken ostentatious dimensions between the end of the 1960s and this day. These practices have taken on such proportion that they dro
Shaping 21st Century AI – SHAPING AI ES-T01069X-1
Talk about “artificial intelligence” (AI) is abundant. Politicians, experts and start-up founders tell us that AI will change how we live, communicate, work and travel tomorrow. Autonomous vehicles, the detection of illnesses, automated filtering of misinformation and hate speech – AI is seemingly s
Shape design and optimisation for additive manufacturing – COFFA
Additive manufacturing is one of the three priority technologies identified for the transformation to the industry of tomorrow. The traditional ALM digital chain shows three major weaknesses: commercial topology optimization codes are not capable of taking into account technological constraints in a
