Electrokinetical transport in liquid foams
This fundamental project is devoted to the study of electro-osmotic transport in a class of materials where it has never been explored: liquid foams. Though part of our daily lives and important in
Subwavelength PHOtonic CrYstals and Applications
In the last two decades, there has been huge efforts to create manmade materials with novel and engineered properties. The main goal of these researches consists in developing ways to manipulate, cont
The globalization of food security
The 2007-2008 food crisis, with "food riots" in more than 40 countries, has transformed deeply the way the world food security's issue is discussed. Beyond the historical framing of the problem as ma
Of constraint and consent. Recomposing regulations in mental health practices
The Collectif Contrast gathered researchers who were exploring ways in which the principles of health democracy are being implemented in the field of mental health, where it's still possible to act without the person’s consent and to use constraint. Psychiatry allows, under certain very specific conditions, the hospitalization and treatment of patients without their consent and even the use of seclusion and restraint.
Use of Chemical Functionalization to improve Micro-Objects Manipulation
The aim of ChemMicroMan project is to develop original chemical strategies, based on functionalization by polymers, in order to show the relevance of a new type of reliable submerged robotic microhandling principle, based on the functionalization by polymers and on the adjustment of the chemical properties of the liquid.
Contact spectral invariants
Generalizing to contact topology the theory of symplectic spectral invariants, in order to explore global rigidity phenomena for contact transformations and Legendrian submanifolds.
Geometrical approach for Porous media flows: theory and numerics
The GeoPor project proposal aims to gather experienced and promising researchers from different fields of mathematics, more precisely optimal transportation for the analysis of partial differential eq
