Climate workshop : the « 2 tons » workshop31 MarDuring this seminar, we will carry out a well known climate workshop: the "2tons" workshop. In 2.5 hours (13-15h30) and in teams, project yourself to 2050, discover the individual and collective levers of the transition to a low-carbon society, and identify the role you want to play in it! Registration mandatory - before the end of the week - because (i) you will need to perform a quick exercisEn savoir plusClimate workshop : the « 2 tons » workshop31 MarDuring this seminar, we will carry out a well known climate workshop: the "2tons" workshop.

Coupling of electrical measurements with nanoindentation tests: application to dielectric thin films and metals24 MarThin film materials can be found in many application areas as they are essential for the development of microelectronic systems, solar cells, power devices, passivation coatings, etc. In order for these systems to perform their function while limiting their failure, two main types of properties must be studied: their mechanical and electrical properties.En savoir plusCoupling of electrical measurements with nanoindentation tests: application to dielectric thin films and metals24 MarThin film materials can be found in many application areas as they are essential for the development of microelectronic systems, solar cells, power devices, passivation coatings, etc. In order for these systems to perform their function while limiting their failure, two main types of properties must be studied: their mechanical and electrical properties.

Humans and Artificial Muscles24 MarIn this seminar, I will review the main feature of the biomechanics of human muscles. I will further explain how we can compute the efficiency of representative locomotion tasks.En savoir plusHumans and Artificial Muscles24 MarIn this seminar, I will review the main feature of the biomechanics of human muscles.

Data-driven Wind Farm Control17 MarWind Farm Control (WFC) is defined as the coordinated control of the turbines in a wind farm, influencing the flow between the turbines as well as the power supply to the electricity system. Its primary goal is to mitigate the wake effects that reduce velocity and increase turbulence behind the turbine(s), while maintaining the stability in the grid.En savoir plusData-driven Wind Farm Control17 MarWind Farm Control (WFC) is defined as the coordinated control of the turbines in a wind farm, influencing the flow between the turbines as well as the power supply to the electricity system.

A Meandering-Capturing Wake Model Coupled to Rotor-Based Flow-Sensing for Operational Wind Farm Flow Estimation by Maxime LEJEUNE17 MarA numerical investigation Wind Farm Flow Control (WFFC) refers to the coordinated control of the turbines inside wind farms with the goal of influencing the flow in such a way that it improves the global performances of the wind power plant. Gaining improved flow awareness is consequently paramount to enhancing the overall effectiveness and robustness of WFFC.En savoir plusA Meandering-Capturing Wake Model Coupled to Rotor-Based Flow-Sensing for Operational Wind Farm Flow Estimation by Maxime LEJEUNE17 MarA numerical investigation Wind Farm Flow Control (WFFC) refers to the coordinated control of the turbines inside wind farms with the goal of influencing the flow in such a way that it improves the global performances of the wind power plant.
