Linked data vocabularies for BIM
2019
Given the high interest in the field of BIM (Building Information Modeling) for Linked Data approaches over the last years, the article at hand presents an evaluation of the main Linked Data vocabularies available for the considered domain. First, Semantic Web layer architecture is presented, along with the 4 main principles of Linked Data. Second, each vocabulary is evaluated according to these 4 principles, while 2 additional ones are added in order to assess the licence associated with the vocabulary (open or not, specified or missing). An overall comparison among the considered vocabularies is also provided, thus helping in choosing which vocabulary to use in future Linked Data applicat…
Performance evaluation of Wireless Sensor Networks based on ZigBee technology in smart home
2013
International audience; Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has diverse application domains such as smart home, smart care, industrial, etc. In this paper, we present a WSN system based on the ZigBee technology (IEEE 802.15.4) in Smart Home. To have a good sensor networks communication implanted in a smart home, studies of operating performance on this network is important. In this work, we investigate the performance of our ZigBee sensor networks. The study of performance is based on measurements of the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) in different parts of the Home. We will also discuss the impact of electromagnetic noise on the communication performance of a ZigBee Sensor Network in…
A note on Hilbert’s weak nullstellensatz
2015
In this article, through a suitable generalization of the well-known notion of spectrum of an element of an arbitrary normed algebra of Operator Theory, it will be possible to give another simple proof of the Hilbert’s Weak Nullstellensatz.

Analysis of fluorescent MRI contrast agent behavior in the liver and thoracic aorta of mice.
2004
To characterize the behavior of magnetofluorescent products injected in mice intravenously.The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) products were labelled with fluorescent molecules to examine the biodistribution process in vivo and observe them at the cellular level by means of confocal microscopy. Three-dimensional (3D) sequences of images were obtained by spectral analysis of sample preparations in a multiphoton confocal microscope and analyzed by the factor analysis of medical image sequence algorithm, which provides factor curves. Factor images are the result of image-processing methods that utilize information from emission spectra. Preparations are also screened in the counting mode to p…
Tungsten oxide thin films sputter deposited by the reactive gas pulsing process for the dodecane detection
2015
International audience; The DC reactive magnetron sputtering of a metallic tungsten target was performed in an argon + oxygen atmosphere for depositing tungsten oxide thin films. In order to control the oxygen concentration in the films, the reactive gas pulsing process, namely RGPP, was implemented. Rectangular pulses were used with a constant pulsing period T = 16 s whereas the duty cycle α (time of oxygen injection to pulsing period T ratio) was systematically changed from 0 to 100% of T. This pulsing injection of the reactive gas allowed a gradual evolution of the films composition from pure metallic to over-stoichiometric WO3+ɛ’ compounds. These WOx films were sputter deposited on comm…
Effect of moisture uptake on flax-reinforced composite laminates: influence on dynamic and quasi-static properties
2016
International audience; This study proposes to investigate the effect of moisture uptake on a wide spectrum of mechanical behaviours of unidirectional flax fibre-reinforced epoxy laminates. It includes tensile monotonic and fatigue testing. Results show that UD flax-epoxy composites, whenexposed to hygrothermal conditioning at 70°C and 85% RH, exhibit a diffusion kinetic which follows a one dimensional Fickian behaviour. The mass uptake at equilibrium is approximately 3.3 % and the diffusion coefficient 6.5 10-6 m2.s-1. Water vapour sorption is shown to induce a significant change in the shape of the tensile stress-strain curve. Contrary to all expectations, water saturation does not degrad…
Improving IoT Communications Based on Smart Routing Algorithms
2018
International audience; Due to the recorded success by Internet of Things (IoT) technology, more and more domains use it as a communications and exchange network such as e-health, smart cities, vehicles, etc. IoT don’t stop integrating an important number of components and objects that are characterized by their complexity and heterogeneity. Such constraints make the existing routings protocols unsuitable for IoT communications. To accomplish all the expected tasks and satisfy the user services, it is important to guarantee a quality of communication that answers to the requirements of the various applications in terms of data and processing (availability, integrity, efficiency, etc.). The …
Super-Resolution Images Methodology Applied to UAV Datasets to Road Pavement Monitoring
2022
The increasingly widespread use of smartphones as real cameras on drones has allowed an ever-greater development of several algorithms to improve the image’s refinement. Although the latest generations of drone cameras let the user achieve high resolution images, the large number of pixels to be processed and the acquisitions from multiple lengths for stereo-view often fail to guarantee satisfactory results. In particular, high flight altitudes strongly impact the accuracy, and result in images which are undefined or blurry. This is not acceptable in the field of road pavement monitoring. In that case, the conventional algorithms used for the image resolution conversion, such as the bilinea…
