Thermal Barrier Coatings for greener heat-to-power applications: understanding limits of operation under hydrogen combustion and sustainable outlook – TBC4H2
The goal of the project is to gain new knowledge on the high temperature behaviour of Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBC) deposited using Suspension Plasma Spraying (SPS) and Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition (EB-PVD) methods on a single crystal Ni-base superalloy with diffusion and overlay bond co
ThermAl nanoCOntactS – THACOS
Nanomaterials have multiple contacts and interfaces at the nanoscale where water molecules can be adsorbed and confined. These parameters can strongly modify heat dissipation in systems. However, thermal transport across nanoscale contacts is poorly documented. The project THACOS aims to fill the ga
Theory and Applications of the Geometry of Entropy Regularized Optimal Transport – THEATRE
Optimal transport, including its entropic regularization, plays an increasing role in our understanding of optimization schemes arising from machine learning problems. The good behavior of such optimization problems and the resulting algorithms are shrewdly related to the geometry induced by the met
Theoretical, Experimental, and Computational Study of Carriers Localization in Nitride Devices – TECCLON
Modern (opto)electronic devices rely on band engineering capabilities, made possible by the use of semiconductor heterostructures in which band gaps, offsets and strains in the active layers are optimized by associating pure compounds and alloys. High electron mobility transistors create two-dimensi
TheRmo-Actuated Migration in a microsystem – TRAM
Bubble/droplet driving has been commonly investigated in soft microfluidic chips, using surfactants to stabilize the dispersed phase, involving simultaneously different phenomena that makes the behaviour of the elements especially difficult to predict. Oppositely, we propose to quantify the influen
The role of Urban Educative Cultures on children’s behavior change about their daily mobility and urban lifestyle. Collection and spatiotemporal analysis of individual tracks location-based and enriched semantically – MOBIKIDS
The MOBI'KIDS program aims to understand the conditions of children's daily mobility and their relationship to the city spaces in a context of changing lifestyles and encouraged alternative modes of travel spurred by the «city demotorization ». The goal is also to study how children's mobility and s
The return to an aquatic life, the evolution of propulsive efficiency & biomimetics – DRAGON2
The return to an aquatic life has shaped many organisms and profoundly impacted fossil and extant marine ecosystems. Understanding how terrestrial organisms adapted to a drastically novel environment poses fundamental challenges, however. Indeed, in most lineages this major transition entailed deep
The physics of multicellular organization in bacteria – BactPhys
We propose a novel approach to study bacterial multicellular organization based on physical mechanisms in order to identify the minimum elements of biochemical regulation required to coordinate complex processes such as bacterial clustering, stream formation, and fruiting body formation. This is a m
The Neonatal EEG Platform – BB EEG Platform
The BB EEG platform project aims at developing an Internet portal providing telemedicine and e-learning services in the field of the electroencephalographic (EEG) signals of the newborn. The EEG consists in recording the spontaneous electrical activity of the brain through several electrodes pla
The LISP-Lab Platform for Future Internet Services – LISP-Lab
The ever-increasing growth of the Internet, accelerated by the massive deployment of mobile data services, raises scalability and performance issues that need to be addressed for the sake of a more robust Internet infrastructure. These issues are mostly due to the use of a single IP numbering space
