Multiscale estimation and Interface detection – Multisc-In
This project is devoted to innovative image processing tools relying both on optimization and multiresolution analysis in order to provide a new paradigm for the interface detection on large scale data. This project essentially relies on: (Obj 1) a deep theoretical study of the discrete Mumford-Sha
High resolution structural studies to understand the chemomechanical transduction mechanism of myosin motors and the critical interactions that regulate their cellular location. – How myosin produces force
The cell comprises several molecular motors that are essential not only for cell division and migration but also for polarized transport, the maintenance of ultrastructures of the cell, or for the anchorage of vesicules or organelles within the cell. The project will focus on the study of the myos
Aeronautic and Automotive Gathering for Pulsating Heat Pipe Development – AARDECO
Facing primary societal challenges (greenhouse effect reduction, fossil energy rarefaction), the industry of transportation vehicles has to change profoundly to provide the economic use of resources for the sake of future generations. This important transformation passes through the minimization of
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
Ignition Combustion Explosion Environment and Energetic Materials – ACXEME
This project aims at improving energetic systems, both explosive and propulsive, operating with gaseous fuels (WP1) and solid fuels (WP2 to WP5). The two sides of these improvements will be: - Optimization of energetic materials and of systems designed for their use, - Prediction capacity in terms
Natural Geotextiles in green road infrastructures – GEONAT
Petrosourced geotextiles have been widely used for several decades in road structures, in particular for separation function. They preserve the characteristics of the subgrade by limiting contamination by fine materials from the fill layer. They are of economic and ecological interest, both because
Algorithm Design for Microrobots with Energy Constraints – ANCOR
We consider collaborative tasks for teams of mobile robots, such as search and exploration, delivering packages, data collection and pattern formation. We determine bounds on the energy requirements and team size for various tasks, provide complexity results under energy constraints and develop app
Easy to fabricate, both sides poly-Si passivating contact bottom cell for Perovskite/Silicon tandem devices – EPoBoC
To reach conversion efficiencies beyond silicon solar cells physical limit of 29.4%, innovation is needed while reducing environmental impact of industrial processes. Multi-junction solar cells that encompass silicon and perovskite subcells offer a very promising option to continue the needed effici
Polymeric nanovectors transfer, from blood flow to tumors – Polytransflow
Polymersomes, a kind of deformable particles, know an increasing enthusiasm from biology, chemistry and pharmacology due to their biocompatibility, their ability to encapsulate either hydrophilic or hydrophobic drugs, their ability to be tuned and their physico-chemical properties preventing their r
Boundary Layer Late Afternoon and Sunset Turbulence: Analysis of multi-layering – BLLAST_A
The transition from the mixed convective boundary layer to a residual layer overlying a stably-stratified surface layer in late afternoon is still not well understood, and there are no simple scaling laws that fit during this period. Yet this transition to the nocturnal boundary layer plays an impor
