The main objectives of the BIBENdOM project are: - to provide a detailed understanding of the biochemical alteration phenomena of concrete in microorganism-bearing environments such as agricultural and agrofood biowastes, in the liquid phase and in the gas phase of biogas digesters - to propose ef

This project seeks to cool cities in summer. Our main approach is to reduce absorption of sunlight by buildings and pavements. The simplest way to reduce solar absorption is to replace dark surfaces that strongly absorb sunlight, such as black or gray roofs, with light-colored surfaces that strongly

It is well known that clean combustion technologies considered for future propulsion applications are often impaired by combustion instabilities. These combustion-driven oscillations need to be taken into account at the design stage level to minimize their impact on the engine-operating domain. Thes

The reduction of the noise exposition represents both societal and environmental concerns, in particular for cities that are subjected to a multitude of noise sources and that count de facto numerous exposed people. In this context, noise mapping is acknowledged as a relevant tool to diagnose urban

The measuring equipment developed within the framework of project RESBATI will involve changes of practice of the professionals of the building guaranteeing a satisfactory thermal performance of the opaque walls. It will contribute to the lawful transition from an obligation of means to a warranty o

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

GELULE aims to analyze the dissemination and implementation of "best practices" for sustainable urban development and the fight against climate change, their stakes and the political, economic and social tensions they imply. Indeed, the fight against urban sprawl can be interpreted and implemented i

Vehicles become more and more complex with the advances in the automated vehicle technology. The deployment of automated vehicle (AV) will take place step by step as the level of vehicle’s autonomy and the complexity of in its environment increases, moving from highway to urban or rural areas. Durin

The main scientific and technological objectives are: [1] The assessment of acceptance (a priori acceptability and use acceptance) by drivers of the delegated vehicle in order to identify their expectations and needs (functional, HMI, training) as well as the development of innovative methodologie

The energy density involved during a chemical reaction could make chemical heat storage an excellent candidate for decreasing buildings energy consumption. Previous research focusing on pure or composite salt in sorbent-based porous matrix (zeolite, silica gel…) showed that the energy density and th

The objective of this project is to elaborate and validate against experiments a modeling route suitable to perform simulations of realistic turbulent combustion systems accounting for plasma-flame interactions. Such simulations have, to the best of our knowledge, never been realized. This study wil

Reducing car dependency is one of the main goals of urban transport and land-use policies. In France, urban policies have primarily focused on the development of public transport and the restriction of car use. These policies have been quite effective in city centres. However they have been thwarted

Within this project, we will focus on the concept of convertible aircraft, with emphasis on the design of autonomous fault tolerant trajectory tracking control algorithms. A convertible aircraft, as considered in this project, denotes a flying machine capable of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL),

ILISBAR project focuses on the re-engineering of civil engineering structures and the seismic strengthening with External Bonded FRP application. Nowadays, the life-duration extension of existing structures and the management of the underlying risk require the implementation of innovative and robust
