Cleaving membrane necks by ESCRT-III – Neck4Fission
The "endosomal sorting complex required for transport" (ESCRT) catalyzes a wide range of physiological and pathological membrane remodeling processes including budding of vesicles and enveloped viruses, cell division and many others involving topologically similar inside-out budding processes. The e
Closed- loop control of the wake of a road vehicle – COWAVE
In this project, we propose strategies for reducing drag and fuel consumption of cars by closed-loop control. We target robust solutions applicable to a large range of operating conditions including changing oncoming velocity and transient side winds. To achieve this goal, we combine passive and act
Cobotic AppLication for handover and Load transport – CALL
TThe CALL project aims to realize human-robot interactions in an industrial task. Specifically, it involves generating handovers of an object between a human subject and a robotic system, followed by collaboratively transporting this object. A first step will involve studying the biomechanical behav
Cold Plasma Sterilization of Medical Devices – PLASSTER
The medical device market is experiencing growth in France and abroad. Several studies have shown that the global market for medical devices (DM) is in continuous progression. The process developed by CRITT-MDTS and INSERM Unit at the University of Reims is a real technical innovation because it is
Collaborative Transportation in the Urban Distribution – TCDU
This project aims at developing models, mechanisms, optimization methods, and a web platform for the collaboration between shippers or carriers in urban distribution. To achieve this goal, the research and development work of this project is divided into five tasks: 1. Developing centralized planni
Colloidal Assembly In Free Energy Gradients – COATING
Whether we use it to manufacture increasingly complex materials or because our bodies have developed solutions to resist it, drying is a ubiquitous process in our lives. Water has a preponderant role in our world and undergoes a crucial cycle based on phase transitions. Water evaporation occurs as s
Colloidal control of multi-phase flow in geological porous media – COCONUT
The COCONUT project aims at developing predictive capabilities to understand how colloids (nanometals, fine particles, bacteria, viruses, asphaltenes..) control immiscible two-phase flow in complex geological formations. Colloids (including nanoparticles) have an incredible potential to remobilize n
Combination of Precipitation and grain Refinement for the Achievement of high Strength Aluminium alloys – PRASA
Aluminium alloys play an important role in the transportation industry. In the aircraft or the car industry, the demand for high strength alloy to design low weight structures is nowadays strongly driven by energy savings and low CO2 emissions. Thus developing, optimizing and producing new alloys wi
Combinatorial Optimization for Competing Agents – COCA
The project deals with problems at the interface between combinatorial optimization and game theory. Combinatorial optimization is a very active field in computer science. This is certainly due to the numerous real world applications (e.g. in telecommunications, transportation, engineering design...
Combined effects of tree plantation expansion and climate change on the hydro-sedimentary functioning of tropical mountain watersheds: aquatic microbial diversity as a proxy land use transition – TecItEasy
x x x x Rapid expansion of tree plantations worldwide simplifies landscape mosaics and is suspected to accelerate land degradation (soil and water resources, erosion of microbial functional diversity). In many tropical catchments, the combined effects of economic, demographic and climate pressures a
