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
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
OxyChalcogenides as new Thermoelectrics – OTher
About 65% of the energy used in industrial processes is lost as waste heat. Part of this waste heat could be converted into electrical power by using thermoelectric modules, which would reduce the needs for electrical power production. To do so, efficient thermoelectric materials are required, but t
PHOTOASSISTED PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN FROM UREA OXIDATION – HYUREA
The project is structured in 4 parts: (1) the development of 100 cm2 nanostructured Fe2O3 photoanodes decorated with Ni-Metal nanocatalysts for efficient solar energy conversion (UV-Vis) with photocurrents above 5 mA/cm2 in the presence of urea in urine (0.33 M). (2) the development of an efficien
PLATFORM OF NUMERICAL COMPUTATION, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND WORLD DATABASE OF HIGH-FREQUENCY ENVIRONMENTAL, FINANCIAL AND SOCIETAL DATA
Over the last ten years, two important initiatives to provide researchers with reliable access to financial data were launched in France by Eurofidai (UAR CNRS 3390) and the Institut Louis Bachelier (ILB). The Eurofidai database contains daily European financial data for common stocks, m
Parallel Microrobot localised in a large workspace – micro-SPIDER
Current microrobots remain very large compared to the size of the objects handled, which does not allow them to reach industrial speeds. In addition, the working space of micromanipulators is often reduced because, on the one hand, the required precision levels impose a limitation of the actuator st
Peptidoglycan cross-linking by L,D-transpeptidases in Clostridioides difficile: role in antibiotic resistance and toxin release – DIFFICROSS
C. difficile poses a serious, ongoing, public health threat. Patients are typically colonized by C. difficile after antibiotics treatment, which disrupts the intestinal microbiota homeostasis. ß-lactam antibiotics are recognized as major causative agents of C. difficile infection but the molecular m
Performance and Systemic optimization of Emergency medicine – POSAMU
For the SAMU, the urban service typical of the growing gap between the logic of the healthcare system and that of the sustainable city, the constraints are increasingly more intense. Because of traffic problems at certain hours and difficult accessibility to some areas generated by modern urban stru
Permanent Activity Monitoring and Attack Localization – SCALA
SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) systems are used in many business sectors such as transportation, energy, telecoms or water distribution. Most of these sectors are defined in Europe as mission critical sectors and, as a consequence, critical installations have to be protected. For
Personalized Optimization with Human Feedback – Human-O
In this project, I propose to explore and design new algorithms at the intersection of optimiza- tion, dynamical systems, and learning of the user’s costs and constraints, allowing end users to have a choice between possible decisions, and learn from it. [S1] Learning to optimize for dynamical syst
