Supply chain design with an environmental performance-sensitive demand – CONCLuDE
The environmental performance of products has become a competitive factor for companies and an important purchasing criterion for customers. However, this environmental performance depends on logistical decisions such as the location/allocation of production sites, the choice of suppliers, the selec
Soft in HArd MAgnetic Nanocomposites – SHAMAN
A magnet’s energy product, which quantifies the work that can be done by the magnet, is a key figure of merit for comparing magnets. The energy product of magnets doubled in value every 12 years in the last century, due to the discovery of new hard magnetic phases with improved intrinsic properties
Solar thermochemical conversion of CO2 and water into fuel using non-stoichiometric oxygen-exchange redox materials – SUNFUEL
The production of synthetic fuels (H2, syngas, liquid fuels) is a major challenge, in particular when produced from clean and novel renewable processes without any fossil resources. The reduction of CO2 emissions requires a strong decrease of fossil energy utilization while developing CO2-free renew
Generalized Optimal Transport Models for Image processing – GOTMI
Our society is in constant interaction with image content. Market data indicates that the number of acquisition mobile devices is going to considerably increase and in particular, a spectacular growth in users for the years to come is expected. Due to this trend, new needs and services for companies
Upper Limit Technology Investigations Mandatory to Attain THz Electronics – ULTIMATE
ULTIMATE is a three-year proposal for an ambitious research project focused on upper limit technology investigations mandatory to attain THz electronics. InP-based transistors are the world’s fastest three-terminal semiconductor devices. Regardless of whether bipolar or field-effect transistors are
Laser-printing of 2D/3D Copper structures for plastic electronics – COPPRINT
The objective of the COPPRINT project is to design, realize and validate with an industrial partner a digital laser printing system for interconnexion in microelectronics. Such applications are currently achieved by inkjet technology by printing metallic nanoparticles inks. Improving the performance
RELIAble ThermoElectric Generators – RELIATEG
The thermoelectric technology enables the direct conversion from heat into electrical energy or vice-versa. New opening markets can be found from the recovery of waste heat, for instance in the field of transport, while contributing both to the reduction of fuel consumption and of greenhouse gas emi
Monge-Ampère and Computational Geometry – MAGA
The (real) Monge-Ampère equation is a fully nonlinear elliptic equation with a strong geometric nature. It can indeed be used, following Minkowski, to recover a convex hypersurface from the knowledge of its Gaussian curvature. This equation also plays a central role in the theory of optimal transpor
Two-component Functional organOGELs – FOGEL
As stated in the National Strategy for Research report (SNR, Action Plan 2016 , ANR Call), while presenting one of the five priorities of Challenge 3 "Industrial Renewal" (Priority 14 "Design of new materials"): " The products of the future will be more complex and mix several materials endowing fin
Development of Near-Infrared Mediated Photocatalytic Nanocomposites for the Treatment of Turbid Wastewaters – UpPhotoCat
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) consisting of several fused benzene rings are found as products of the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons (e.g. forest fire) as well as in flowback and produced water from Coal bed methane (CBM) and shale gas extraction process. These two processes are wide
