A few homogenized mathematical models. Application to the human lungs
We present macroscopic models of the mechanical behavior of the human lung's parenchyma obtained by the two--scale homogenization method. The first part focuses on the... -
Spatiotemporal dynamic of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in cardiac myocytes
The cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) exerts short term beneficial effects on cardiac function by phosphorylating several key excitation-contraction coupling (ECC)... -
Active learning for variety approximation
Statistical learning aims to modelize a functional link between two variables X and Y thanks to a random sample of realizations of the couple (X,Y ). When the variable... -
Quasi-self-complementary antennas for multistandard mobile terminals
In this thesis we present the design and optimization of self-complementary antennas to be integrated into a Smartphone. A self-complementary antenna is known as a... -
Mechanisms of magnetic nanoparticles capture : application to water purification
Magnetic separation is used in the domain of water purification. In these systems, functionalized or bare magnetic nanoparticles are used to capture a target pollutant... -
Development of a K-Ar dating instrument for in situ measurement of the martia...
Crater counting is the only method used on Mars to give relative geochronological information but it never had been fitted and corrected by absolute geochronology.... -
Regulation of the yifK locus by multi-target small RNA GcvB in Salmonella
GcvB is a conserved 200 nucleotide RNA that downregulates several genes involved in amino acid uptake or biosynthesis in bacteria. The physiological role of GcvB... -
Temperature and irradiation effects on the behaviour of 14C and its precursor...
The dismantling of UNGG reactors in France will generate about 23 000 tons of radioactive graphite wastes. To manage these wastes, the radiological inventory and data... -
Model-based Framework for Using Advanced Scheduling Theory in Real-Time Syste...
Real-time embedded systems need to be analyzed at an early stage in order to detect temporal vulnerabilities. Indeed,software development costs are sharply impacted by... -
Wound composites damage modelling and characterization. Application to burst ...
A damage model dedicated to wound composite is developed by using the tools of continuousdamage mechanics, irreversible processes thermodynamics and the representation... -
Assimilation of satellite data into numerical models by optimal control methods
Satellite data assimilation methods are investigated. There are mainly two kinds of technics: the sequential methods, derived from the Kalman filter and the... -
Dynamique des forêts tropicales de l'île de La Réunion : processus d'invasion...
Since its emergence, roughly 2.5 million years ago, the island of La Réunion, situated 800 km from the east coast of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean, has been... -
Setting mechanism and rheology of model geopolymer binders
It is commonly accepted that the geopolymers are potential solutions as an alternative to conventional hydraulic binders. Geopolymers are produced from no-carbon... -
Study of risk factors of childhood leukemia
Objectives: This work investigated three hypotheses related to the etiology of childhood acute leukemia (AL):1) maternal folic acid supplementation before or during... -
