Analyse de la distribution spatiale des implantations humaines : apports et limites d’indicateurs multi-échelles et trans-échelles
2020
As human beings, it is easy for us to judge visually whether a distribution is dispersed or concentrated. However, the quantitative formalization of our impressions is problematic. It depends on the scales of the chosen analysis. This dependence of indicators on scales has changed. It is initially considered as a barrier to knowledge, it now reflects the multi-scale organisation of the distributions studied. The central objective of this thesis is to investigate the limits and contribution of multi-scale and trans-scale indicators to the study of the spatial distributions of human settlements.Spatial analysis aims at comparing spatial distributions to a uniform distribution. The way in whic…
Veniet Tempus (QNat.7.25): Stoic Philosophy and Roman Genealogy in Seneca's View of Scientific Progress
2014
Seneca's views on the future development of knowledge have often been interpreted as an enlightened anticipation of the modern faith in progress. And Seneca himself has been depicted as a sort of Condorcet avant la lettre. In the present paper, I argue that while it is extremely interesting to investigate the reception of Senecan patterns in modern thought, the writer's idea of scientific and moral enhancement should primarily be understood in the intellectual and socio-anthropological framework of ancient culture. Indeed, a reassessment of the evidence offered by the Natural Questions and the Moral Epistles shows that Seneca devises a broadly conceived spectrum of progress, which reflects …

Frankenstein or the modern theurgist, the reception of Hermetic magic in Mary Shelley’s work
2017
This work considers the relationship between the novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus and nineteenth-century esotericism with Hermeticism and its magical practices. We will focus on the influence of theurgy, a very popular magical-religious practice among the Neoplatonic movements of the first centuries of our era. In its Hermetic form, the art of animating statues through the attraction of their internal divine powers stands out. On the one hand, we will present an analysis of the path that this unique practice follows until it reaches Frankenstein. On the other hand, we will deal with the reception of the motive in this work.
Karyological observations on plant taxa endemic to the Balearic Islands
2007
Mitotic chromosome numbers are reported from 35 vascular plant taxa endemic to the Balearic Islands that are poorly known cytogenetically. The chromosome numbers of Chaenorhinum rodriguezii (2n = 14), Coristospermum huteri (2n = 22), Carduus ibicensis (2n = 26), Filago petro-ianii (2n = 26), Ononis crispa ssp. zschackei (2n = 30), and Ophrys bertolonii ssp. balearica (2n = 36) were determined for the first time. New chromosome numbers are reported in Pimpinella bicknellii (2n = 22), Calamintha rouyana (2n = 46), Vicia bifoliolata (2n = 14), and Teucrium asiaticum (2n = 30). A new diploid cytotype (2n = 16) was found in Ranunculus paludosus ssp. barceloi, which is restricted to populations f…
Prédiction du comportement mécanique et étude de l’endommagement d’un composite tressé 3D par une analyse multiéchelle. Application à la conception d…
2014
Cette étude porte sur la prédiction du comportement mécanique et l’étude de l’endommagement de composites tressés 3D, utilisés pour fabriquer des réservoirs multiformes. D’une part, on cherche à prédire les propriétés effectives du matériau homogénéisé par une approche dite d’homogénéisation multiéchelle à partir de la connaissance des propriétés des constituants, de leur fraction volumique et de leur disposition au sein d’un élément de volume représentatif du matériau hétérogène communément appelé volume élémentaire représentatif (VER). D’autre part, on cherche à avoir accès à des grandeurs locales pour mieux comprendre les mécanismes d’endommagement identifiés expérimentalement et évaluer…
Interactions and structures in polydisperse suspensions of charged spherical colloids
2018
Colloidal suspensions are found a bit everywhere around us, in construction materials,in cosmetics, in food, in biology. They are composed of nanometric or micrometric particlesdispersed in a gas, a liquid or sometimes a solid.This thesis is about colloidal suspensions in ionic solutions, where colloids bear anelectric charge, for example silica particles in an aqueous solution of sodium chloride,at a basic pH. The colloids, here approximated by spheres, can vary significantly in size,which can have an important effect on the behavior of these systems.This study aims at improving the understanding of these charged colloidal suspensionsby theoretical models solved by numerical simulations.of…
Cosmologie des théories de gravite modifiées
2017
The study of physical cosmology has reached an exciting era. For the first time in human history, a quantitative model for the formation and the evolution of the Universe exists, which explains a wide range of phenomena and has been tested with incredible accuracy during the last century. Moreover, weare approaching a time when a bounty of high quality cosmological data will be available,allowing us to use cosmology as a tool to test fundamental physics.In particular, as the large-scale structures of the Universe are governed by gravity, cosmology can help us to asses the correctness of Albert Einstein’s general relativity. This idea fueledmost of the work described in this manuscript,in wh…
Rupture de fibre : comparaison entre un modèle écrit a l'échelle microstructural et une détection du phénomène par tomographie très haute résolution
2011
International audience; On présente dans cette étude la discrimination des phénomènes de ruptures de fibre, de microfissuration intralaminaire, de macrofissuration intralaminaire ainsi que du microdélaminage au sein des composites stratifiés d'unidirectionnels orientés, dans le cadre d'une méthode de détection des endommagements basée sur la technique de l'Emission Acoustique. Ces résultats expérimentaux sont confrontés aux prévisions issues d'un modèle de comportement de matériaux composites unidirectionnels, basés sur la physique des phénomènes à l'échelle des constituants.
Une méthode FE2 simplifiée appliquée à la modélisation de l'éclatement des réservoirs composites hautes pressions
2011
International audience; On propose dans cette étude la modélisation des phénomènes physiques à l'origine et induits par celui de rupture de fibre au sein d'un composite unidirectionnel. Cette modélisation, faite à l'échelle microscopique, permet de construire une base de données qui va décrire cette échelle au sein d'un procédé multiéchelles FE2 simplifié. Ce procédé est ensuite utilisé pour réaliser le dimensionnement à l'éclatement d'un réservoir composite bobiné.
