CO2 guided cardiopulmonary resuscitation – CPR-CO2
Cardiac arrest is estimated to be the third leading cause of death in the United States with a survival rate around 10%. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) refers to the management of cardiac arrest patients. Aside the absolute priority to consider defibrillation to restore spontaneous circulation,
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
Building Of Ocean Surface Topography maps from SWOT – BOOST-SWOT
A large number of oceanographic applications rely on gridded maps of Sea Surface Height (SSH) and related variables such as surface currents. Such products have been for about 20 years designed by the DUACS (Data Unification and Altimeter Combination System) project, led by the Collecte Localisation
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
Biomimetic Anti-Icing surfaces for eco efficient ice-slurry generators – COOLISSE
Refrigeration is an energy-intensive industry (20% of national electricity) and has till now used greenhouse gases emitting primary refrigerants. Secondary refrigeration is an effective way to drastically reduce the quantity of primary refrigerant fluid used (by a factor of up to 10) while improving
Biomechanical cost quantification for wheelchair accessible cities – CapaCITIES
The manual wheelchair (MWC) is currently the most efficient device to restore locomotion when lower limb functions are, temporarily or definitively, impaired. However, MWC locomotion is a strenuous form of ambulation for the musculoskeletal system as the upper-limbs of the MWC user are permanently u
Bioinspired chitosan cardiac patches: assemblies with the secretome of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for cardiac tissue regeneration – MYOCHITO
Myocardial infarction is one of the most deadly cardiovascular diseases in the world and in France, and is considered as one of the major pathologies of the 21st century. It occurs when the heart is no longer sufficiently supplied with oxygen by the blood, causing the death of the damaged cells. Ven
Biobased High Gas and Vapor Barrier Polymers for Packaging – GASP
The objective of GASP is the development of 100% biobased polylactide materials including cellulose nanostructures with designed barrier properties for oxygen, CO2, water or organic vapors. These materials are targeted on high added value applications in the packaging industry. GASP is deliberately
Bio-physicochemistry of tropical clouds at Maïdo (La Réunion Island): processes and impacts on secondary organic aerosols formation – BIO-MAIDO
The objective of the BIO-MAIDO program is to better understand the chemical and biological multiphase mechanisms controlling the formation of secondary organic aerosols (SOA). Uncertainties on the processes of formation and transformation of atmospheric organic aerosols need to be lifted to understa
Bio-inspired dipolar dyes for solution processing of organic solar cells – Chalcones
Scientifically and technologically, but also economically, dye chemistry has represented a major field of activity in chemical industry and academic research since the 19th century. Nowadays, dye sciences are facing new exciting challenges. Given the announced shortage in fossil fuels, alternative e
