Numerical Schemes using Lattice Basis Reduction – NS-LBR
We will focus on the setting where at least one of the operators involved in the PDE is anisotropic, in the sense that it involves position dependent, non axis- aligned, privileged directions. Grid discretizations are natural in medical image or volume processing, and numerous fundamental isotropic
Catalytic biogas conversion under polarization – POLCA
The main objective of the project is to contribute to the deeper understanding of the various phenomena involved in the catalytic reforming reactions of fuels to produce hydrogen when the catalytic process is based on the use of oxygen-permeable membranes, i.e. in conditions where the reactions are
Flow energy harvesting using piezoelectric fluttering plates – FLUTTENER
The present project is articulated around three main objectives, that will help assess the feasibility and energy harvesting potential of a piezoelectric flag in axial flows. The main objective is to understand the dynamics of the piezoelectric fluttering plate, and assess its energy harvesting p
Creative activities in Virtual Environmental Spaces – CREATIVENESS
CREATIVENESS is a program of research composed of experimental studies to gain a better understanding of how functional and representational features associated with Multi-User Virtual Environments (MUVEs) could have an effect on individual and collaborative processes involved in creative tasks and
CO2 Dependable Injection and Storage System Optimized for Local Valorization of the geothermal Energy Delivered – CO2-DISSOLVED
Projects for the geological storage of CO2 generally plan for its injection under supercritical conditions, i.e. in a state between gas and liquid, thus maximizing the stored quantities that can involve several million tons per year. When no site is available for the secure and durable storage of CO
DeseRt dUst Modeling : performance and Sensitivity evaluation – DRUMS
The main steps are (i) the development of a regional meteorological dust model by implementing specific parameterizations of dust emission, transport and deposition on-line in the Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model, (ii) the evaluation of the quality of the resulting regional dust simulations
Master the AIR transfers and their impact on the hygrothermal behavior of Wood Houses – MOB-AIR
The aims of MOB-AIR project are to understand, analyse and classify air leak for wood house. These buildings are an important development axis for Civil engineering espacially in individual housing. To achiveve these aims the project expands in several directions : a analysis of professionals feedba
Magnetoresistance tunnel devices controlled by NaCl ultrathin layers properties – MAGIC CARPET
During the last decade, the magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ) have gathered an increasing interest in nanoscience, as they became one of the key devices of a new field of research : spintronics. These heterostructures are made with two ferromagnetic electrodes (FM), separated by an insulating layer (t
Emulation techniques for the REduction, Sensitivity Analysis and INversion of models for subsurface hydrology – RESAIN
This project handles subsurface flow and reactive transport problems by addressing the four following methodological topics: (i) model uncertainty analysis, (ii) model sensitivity analysis, (iii) model reduction in the case of computationally expensive simulators and, (iv) inverse modeling. Two type
The Chirality of Genes – CHIRGEN
The asymmetric photochemistry of nucleotide precursor molecules at synchrotron SOLEIL is dependent upon on the chiroptical properties of these molecules and will most certainly initially yield only small enantiomeric excesses (e.e.s), as we have already observed for amino acids. Thus any asymmetry p
