Osmotic Stress on chip: an innovative tool to screen complex fluids at the nanoliter scale – OSMOCHIP
Solvay is facing today with an increasing demand for studying new formulations with limited environmental footprints and for a wide range of applications. The elaboration of their phase diagram is simple but tedious, since it consists in mixing chemicals by hand or using labscale mixing apparatus, a
Original Optimized Object Oriented Numerical Model for Heterogeneous Hydrogeology – H2MNO4
The project H2MNO4 will develop numerical models for reactive transport in heterogeneous media. It defines six mathematical and computational challenges and three applications for environmental problems with societal impact. This basic research project matches perfectly well with the first topic of
Organized Pedestrian Movement in Public Spaces: Preparation and Crisis Management of Urban Parades and Demonstration Marches with High Conflict Potential – OPMoPS
Parades of highly controversial groups or of political demonstration marches are considered as a major threat to urban security, since the diametrically opposed opinions of participants and opponents may result in violence or even terroristic attacks. Due to the movement of the urban parades and dem
Optimizing mechanical properties of nickel base superalloys by tailoring microstructure – OPALE
The project aims at improving the mechanical behaviour of polycrystalline Nickel base superalloys, by tailoring the microstructure of as-shaped pieces. Those alloys are used for manufacturing turbojet engine components, due to their excellent mechanical strength at high temperature. Improving the ma
Optimized transport mechanisms of bacteriophages for the development of antibacterial coatings – MAGENTA
Adhesion of micro-organisms, in particular bacteria, plays an important role in biofilms formation and the colonization of biotic or abiotic surfaces. These biofilms can be formed on any type of surfaces, and represent important financial losses e.g. in food and water treatment industries. Moreover,
Optimization under uncertainties of fueling stations for electric and hydrogen vehicles – OSIRMEH
Decarbonising the transport sector remains the major challenge in the coming years at a global level. A massive development of mobility solutions based on hydrogen and electricity carriers is expected. For the land-based mobility, this will require the development of multi-energy carriers fueling st
Optimization of functional properties of particulate aerated materials – ProMAP
This project deals with issues related to Foamed Particulate Materials (FPM), encountered as foams produced from granular suspensions, such as cement or plaster pastes for example. Those materials have a high development potential in the context of thermal renovation of buildings. However, their the
Optimization of a flexible technological chaine of CO2/H2O co-electrolysis and CO-hydrogenation into synthetic methane – CHOCHCO
CHOCHCO project deals with the issue of CO2 value chain and with the development of a novel family of solutions for renewable electricity storage through a gas vector, named “Power to gas”. The share of intermittent and renewable sources (wind farms, photovoltaics) in the French and European electri
Optimization of Urban Synchromodal Systems – OPUSS
The goal of the OPUSS project is to design advanced optimization algorithms to support the planning of synchromodal urban delivery networks. According to this objective, we propose to achieve fundamental advances on major challenges of synchromodal urban systems, which are the choice among alternati
Optimization of Required and Accessible Manufacturing Made Necessary by an Eminent Sanitary Crisis – Odefrance
The ODEFRANCE project aims to provide the Hauts-de-France region with the capacity to take care of patients in crisis period when marketed pharmaceutical specialties can no longer be transported due to a disruption in the supply chain. Indeed, the latest health crisis has shown that certain specialt
