Reconstructing regional BuRnt Areas from microcharcoal preserved In marine SEdiments – BRAISE
BRAISE has four objectives: (a) create the first dataset of charcoal accumulation in marine sediments of modern ages; (b) identify spatial patterns in the distribution of charcoal accumulation in a given area, construct hypotheses about its processes and determine local and/or regional scale correct
Reconnecting young children and adults with nature. – Gentil Coquelicot
Western societies seem to have built themselves "against nature", as Serge Moscovici (1972) put it. According to a growing number of specialists (Parma Declaration, WHO 2010), more and more of us are suffering from "nature deficit disorder", with deleterious consequences for our health. Its corollar
Recherches Avancées sur l'Arbre et les Ecosytèmes Forestiers
Le Laboratoire d’Excellence ARBRE est intégré à l’I-SITE Lorraine Université d’Excellence (LUE). Il associe 11 partenaires incluant INRAE, UL, AgroParisTech, IGN, ANSES, ONF, CNPF et CRITT-Bois. Nos laboratoires étudient la biologie des arbres et le fonctionnement des forêts dans un contexte de
Realistic modelling for Earth's magnetic field reversals – revEarth
The overarching goal of this project is to understand Earth’s magnetic field reversals using convective geodynamo simulations that operate in the low viscosity and strong magnetic field regime, while exhibiting polarity reversals that are not driven by inertia. 1) The implementation of the AMS rare
Real Analysis and Geometry – RAGE
Heat semigroups on Reimannian manifolds The heat semigroup on differential forms Sobolev algebras The Riesz transform Hardy spaces of differential forms and Riesz transforms The heat kernel on sub-Riemannina geometry Spectral estimates for Schrödinger operators Riesz transforms for Schro¨din
Reaching Efficient & high-Load Operation of Anaerobic Digestion – RELOAD
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a mature technology that converts biomass (agricultural waste, etc.) into biogas, a renewable energy source. This biogas is upgraded into biomethane, a «clean« biofuel that massively reduces greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels. However, the feed-in tariffs t
Raw earth construction vulnerability regarding hydric conditions – VBATCH
There are 3 objectives : - The analysis of the liquid water content on the mechanical behavour in rammed earth. We aim to characterize : compressive strength, Young modulous, cohesion and friction angles. - The modelling of the hydromechanical behaviour, using the concept of effective stress, us
Rational design of chemosensory compounds targeting smell, taste and emotion – chemosim
ChEmoSim is a fundamental and highly multidisciplinary project. It gathers academic experts in computational modeling, protein engineering, neuroscience, and a company expert in sensory analysis. The research hypothesis is that numerical models can crack the code of chemosensory sensations. To achie
Rapid rEcognition of CS sensitive or resistant Sepsis
Les deux premières années du RHU RECORDS ont été marquées par les vagues successives de la COVID-19 dont les formes sévères sont des sepsis d’origine virale. Les corticostéroïdes ont été les premiers médicaments à démontrer un bénéfice spectaculaire sur la survie des patients atteints de COVID sévèr
Random PhoXonic Surface – RANDOM
discover new photonic and phononic physical behaviors in relation with a random distribution controlled by mathematical rules (order/disorder transition, hyperuniformity, percolation paths, Anderson type localization), (ii) to co-localize photons and phonons on randomly distributed sites and to enha
