Sustainable Architecture for Fire safety and Evaluation of Facades – SAFE-FACADE
The densification of urban centres and the development of highly energy-efficiency buildings are leading to the emergence of new construction systems of high-rise residential or commercial buildings, which often include external thermal insulation. However, the use of such facade raises questions ab
Exploring adsorption processes in porous optical resonators – EXAPOR
It is well known that the structure of the materials can be engineered to interact with light. What is less known is that, in some cases, this interaction can be so strong that physical and chemical properties of the system can be modified even in absence of light. One emerging strategy to engineer
Pulses Interacting collectively with glass for Optical Nonlinear Effects in Additive manufactuRing – PIONEAR
Glass offers several desirable properties, including chemical inertness, low thermal conductivity, high electrical resistivity, and optical transparency. These characteristics make it indispensable in medical, pharmaceutical, and chemical setups, as well as in everyday applications. However, glass i
Safe and accurate localization solution for autonomous vehicles travelling in a constrained environment – road/rail – LOCSP
The revolution in road and rail transport systems today involves the development of on-board technologies, of which localisation and communication are key elements in the modernisation of land transport and the emergence of connected and autonomous vehicles. In the LOCSP project, the focus is on the
Anyons in Quantum Circuits – ANYQUAC
Central to Quantum Mechanics is the division of particles between bosons and fermions. Nevertheless, this distinction has been theoretically challenged from the 80s on. In reduced dimensionality, particles coined “anyons” can exist, with a fractional exchange phase intermediate between bosons and
Migrations and Forced Labor in the Maritime Economies of Globalized Asia – FORSEA
In a flagship region of global supply chain capitalism and a global hub for international migration, contemporary pathways of migration proliferate and labor geographies diversify. Against a backdrop of rapid changes in economies and labor markets, uneven North-South development and South-South comp
Unmasking Thrombo-inflammation by in vivo Molecular Magnetic Resonance Imaging of von Willebrand Factor – FlaMRIng
Thrombotic and inflammatory processes are closely interconnected and play key roles in many disorders, including ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), acute myocardial infarction, renal ischemia, and autoimmune diseases. In this context, act
Acoustics for antiferromagnets – ACAF
There is keen interest in the use of antiferromagnetic (AF) materials, rather than ferromagnetic (FM) materials, for encoding information. However, the absence of leakage fields and their very low magnetization make it difficult to detect and control the AF state. The ACAF project addresses these is
Evolution of the profile of Fusarium species and associated mycoToxins in wheats under climate changes: understanding the present to anticipate the future – EvolTox
In 2007, the Food and Agriculture Organization estimated that 25% of the world’s crops are affected by mycotoxins each year, leading to annual losses close to 1 billion tons. In Europe, cereals are the crop mostly concerned by this safety issue. Wheats (Triticum spp. including common and durum wheat
Inferring pest dispersal in agricultural landscapes to improve management strategies – DISLAND
Landscape genetics approaches combine concepts and data from population genetics, landscape ecology and spatial statistics. This discipline emerged from the field of conservation biology to characterize the influence of landscape on the genetic structure of populations in order to assess their conne
