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
Flow energy harvesting using piezoelectric fluttering plates – FLUTTENER
The present project is articulated around three main objectives, that will help assess the feasibility and energy harvesting potential of a piezoelectric flag in axial flows. The main objective is to understand the dynamics of the piezoelectric fluttering plate, and assess its energy harvesting p
Catalytic biogas conversion under polarization – POLCA
The main objective of the project is to contribute to the deeper understanding of the various phenomena involved in the catalytic reforming reactions of fuels to produce hydrogen when the catalytic process is based on the use of oxygen-permeable membranes, i.e. in conditions where the reactions are
Numerical Schemes using Lattice Basis Reduction – NS-LBR
We will focus on the setting where at least one of the operators involved in the PDE is anisotropic, in the sense that it involves position dependent, non axis- aligned, privileged directions. Grid discretizations are natural in medical image or volume processing, and numerous fundamental isotropic
Photonic coatings for Light Trapping in organic photovoltaic solar cells – PhotoLighT
The organic photovoltaic cells are among the 3rd generation after silicon and inorganic thin films. They are usually constituted of a stacking of thin layers with a conjugated material as active component, in which photons are absorbed. Then the photogenerated excitons are dissociated in charges tha
Optimization and Research of Extraction Technologies and Alternative Solvents – ORTESA
Extraction Technology is one of the most promising themes that can strongly contribute to sustainable growth of the French economy. This conclusion was based upon two observations. Extraction plays a very important role in French industry. The chemical, food -and pharmaceutical industries heavily re
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
Stabilizing detergents through a salt-bridges network for studying and crystallizing in solution membrane proteins in a functional form. Application to multidrug ABC efflux pumps. – CLAMP
Detergents are key components in the field of structural biology and biochemistry of membranes proteins. They are required for maintaining them in solution for crystallography, ligand screening, antibody production, immunization and other applications. Unfortunately, they tend to unfold these protei
Spatio-Temporal Analysis by Recognition within Complex Images for Remote Sensing of Environment – ASTERIX
Following the growth of multisource data with high spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions, the problem of complex image information mining in remote sensing of environment becomes a great challenge, with many potential applications raising. However, there is no or only a few methodological fram
Planning and Optimization of Home Care Services at the Operational Level – PONOSaD
The project “Planning and Optimization of Home Care Services at the Operational Level” aims to develop decision support tools for professional home care. In a context where home care activities increase significantly, few tools are adapted to operational management requirements because of their spec
