Advanced Monte Carlo and Quasi-Monte Carlo Sampling for Computer Graphics Applications – AMCQMCSCGA
Stochastic and quasi-stochastic sampling is a key component of Monte Carlo and Quasi-Monte Carlo (MCQMC) integration, a technique widely used in applications that require the evaluation of complex integrands, which cannot be calculated analytically, such as the light-transport calculations commonly
All-Polymer Solar Cells – POLYSOLPV
POLYSOLPV HAs the objective to demonstrate over the next 3 years a new generation of cheap and printable polymer-based solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 9-10%. The cost of photovoltaic cells based on silicon has been a major impediment to their widespread deployment and organic photo
Nanoparticules pour le Traitement Photodynamique Vasculaire des Tumeurs Cérébrales guidé par l'Imagerie – Nano-VTP
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is being assessed as a therapy for the treatment of malignant gliomas. Despite conventional treatments, local relapses remain higher than 80%. PDT relies on the light activation of a photosensitizer (PS) localized in the tumor site. The treatment involves two steps. In the
Assembly of thermoplastic hybrid carbon composite thermosetting:customization of complex structures – SHORYUKEN
Dans l'industrie moderne, l'impression 3D révolutionne la fabrication de composants automobiles, ferroviaires, aéronautiques, ainsi que des prothèses et orthèses. Ce procédé transforme les modèles 3D en objets réels, permettant la production de pièces complexes et sur mesure, sans le coût de moules
Modeling of the durability of concrete constructions – MODEVIE
«The feedback shows that better management of aging structures, in a context of sustainable development, requires appropriate tools for predicting the performance and life of the structures. Furthermore, the development of such tools is also today an important issue that emerged during the conceptio
EXtremes, STatistical learning and Applications – EXSTA
Extreme Value Theory (EVT) is the branch of probability and statistics concerned with rare events associated with distributional tails, with numerous applications in various scientific fields where extreme events are of special interest, and in risk management. The most recent years have seen an in
Multiscale functional-structural plant modelling at the example of apple trees – FSPM Apple
The project is devoted to two research foci: F1 – «Model development, calibration, analysis, and corresponding software tools«, F2 – «Case study: Modelling apple tree growth at organ, branch and whole-tree scale«. In F1, we are building mathematical and algorithmic tools for bridging the gap b
All-Solid-state litHium sulfUr Battery with a poLymer Electrolyte – SHUTTLE
Li metal is the best negative electrode due to its low electrochemical potential and high capacity, at least 10 times higher than that of graphite in Li-ion battery. However, the uneven Li electrodeposition onto metallic Li produces dendrites limiting the battery coulombic efficiency and which may g
Automatic redistribution of a fleet of car-sharing vehicles and parking valet – VALET
The announced objective of the project is the development of an automatic redistribution system for sharing vehicles in an urban environment. The principle is based on the construction of automated vehicle platoons guided by manually driven vehicles. The collected vehicles are transported to a charg
PolyAmide resistance to damage Cumulation from Fatigue loading and high-pressure HYdrogen Cycling – PACIFHYC
Consideration of hydrogen as an alternate energy carrier for ensuring cleaner means of mobility necessitates the design of reliable infrastructure for the transport, storage and dispensing of gaseous hydrogen. In order to make the sector a credible alternative, an immediate goal is to deploy network
