Le goût de l'effort
2018
Quelles sont les pratiques d'accompagnement à la scolarité mises en ouvre dans les familles des classes moyennes ? C'est à cette question que vient répondre ce livre en montrant notamment que, contrairement au discours qu'elles tiennent et à un apparent respect des frontières entre les prérogatives éducatives de la famille et celles de l'école, ces familles sont dans l'ensemble très actives dans le domaine de la transmission des savoirs. Elles mettent en ouvre de véritables savoirs didactiques qui sont au principe de dispositions scolaires et d'apprentissages.
Proximités et médiations à travers deux romans francophones : "Les Nuits de Strasbourg" (1997) de Djebar et "Le Village de l’Allemand ou le journal d…
2021
International audience; Cette communication porte sur différentes proximités et médiations à travers deux romans francophones, "Les Nuits de Strasbourg" (1997) d'Assia Djebar et "Le Village de l'Allemand ou le journal des frères Schiller" (2008) de Boualem Sansal. La première partie traite de la posture (Meizoz) ou de l'image de ces auteurs dans le champ littéraire (Bourdieu, Casanova), telle que médiée par ces ouvrages. Ensuite, nous nous intéresserons à la mémoire multidirectionnelle (Rothberg) dans ces romans car l'intertextualité et l'intermédialité médient des proximités mémorielles et interculturelles. Enfin, la lecture sera considérée comme une potentielle médiation du réel.
Designing an Innovative Face-Milling Cutter
2013
The paper consists in a research in the design of an innovative face-milling cutter, in terms of product lifecycle management (PLM), with the help from creative design methods, such as TRIZ. The model of the lifecycle management of the cutting tools was presented, emphasizing the functional analysis and creative design phase. Based on this analysis, a new constructive variant of the milling cutter was designed and simulated with finite element method, highlighting its advantages compared with classic construction variants.
Analyses of innovative glass blocks for BIPV: assessment of thermal and optical performance
2015
This paper illustrates the results of the performance analyses conducted on an innovative glass block integrated with thirdgeneration dye-sensitised solar cells (DSCs), designed to enable the construction of translucent and sustainable building envelopes. The analyses include the simulation of both thermal and optical performance with regard to different configurations of the photovoltaic (PV)-integrated glass block, and the results obtained are presented using two different programs: Comsol Multiphysics and WINDOW. The configurations may differ – for example, because of the position of the module inside the glass block, the type of DSC module used (composition, transparency, design) and th…
Computer-assisted orientation and drawing of archaeological pottery.
2018
Archaeologists spend considerable time orienting and drawing ceramic fragments by hand for documentation, to infer their manufacture, the nature of the discovery site and its chronology, and to develop hypotheses about commercial and cultural exchanges, social organisation, resource exploitation, and taphonomic processes. This study presents a survey of existing solutions to the time-consuming problem of orienting and drawing pottery fragments. Orientation is based on the 3D geometry of pottery models, which can now be acquired in minutes with low-cost 3D scanners. Several methods are presented: they are based on normal vectors, or circle fittings, or profile fittings. All these methods see…
Two photogrammetric methods for measuring flat elements in buildings under construction
2008
Usually, determining the dimensions of flat surfaces in buildings under construction, such as window cavities and facade coating materials, are done by direct measuring methods using tapes and plummets. Sometimes these methods suppose a slow and highly risky work for operators. This research proposes the substitution of these procedures by indirect methods based on close range photogrammetry and laser distance measurement. First, we show the design, construction and calibration of a system composed by a digital camera and a lasermeter mounted on a support with multiple turning positions. Next, two different facade element measuring methodologies are shown. The first method is based on takin…
Strength and ductility of RC jacketed columns: A simplified analytical method
2016
Abstract Reinforced concrete (RC) jacketing is a common method for retrofitting existing columns with poor structural performance. It can be applied in two different ways: if the continuity of the jacket is ensured, the axial load of the column can be transferred to the jacket, which will be directly loaded; conversely, if no continuity is provided, the jacket will induce only confinement action. In both cases the strength and ductility evaluation is rather complex, due to the different physical phenomena included, such as confinement, core–jacket composite action, preload and buckling of longitudinal bars. Although different theoretical studies have been carried out to calculate the confin…
Hand Held 3D Scanning for Cultural Heritage: Experimenting Low Cost Structure Sensor Scan
2017
In the last years 3D scanning has become an important resource in many fields, in particular it has played a key role in study and preservation of Cultural Heritage. Moreover today, thanks to the miniaturization of electronic components, it has been possible produce a new category of 3D scanners, also known as handheld scanners. Handheld scanners combine a relatively low cost with the advantage of the portability. The aim of this chapter is two-fold: first, a survey about the most recent 3D handheld scanners is presented. As second, a study about the possibility to employ the handheld scanners in the field of Cultural Heritage is conducted. In this investigation, a doorway of the Benedictin…
On the ranking criteria for energy retrofitting building stocks: Which building goes first? The role of the building size in the establishment of pri…
2017
Abstract The energy retrofit of the existing building stocks is considered a preeminent strategy to lowering the energy consumption of the building sector. Other than the definition of the most successful combination of energy saving measures, the definition of a suitable ranking of all the buildings of the stock, on which implementing established energy retrofit measures, is quite a relevant issue. The most eligible criterion for prioritizing the buildings seems their energy consumption because it combines the building energy performance and their size. To investigate the role played by the building dimension in determining the order of priority of all the buildings of a given stock, this …
A set of indices to assess the real performance of daylight-linked control systems
2017
Abstract The installation of Building Automation Control Systems (BACs) in general is an effective action to achieve relevant energy savings. Commercial BACs, installed in residential or small offices, often include functions of lighting control, acting as Daylight-Linked Control Systems (DLCSs). Nevertheless, because system performance is strictly dependent on different parameters, BAC’s hardware and software configuration and as well as an inaccurate commissioning do not always allow a perfect execution of the desired tasks; therefore, the system could not work as expected. Moreover, it is well known that energy saving potential is specifically related to the variability of the light envi…
