Technical Rules for Connecting PV Systems to the Distribution Grid: A Critical Comparison of the Italian and Vietnamese Frameworks
2018
In the last two decades, starting from the Kyoto protocol, decarbonization has promoted worldwide the rise of distributed generation from renewable energy sources. Currently, Vietnam is still showing a strong dependence on fossil fuels but with a great interest in investing in renewable, especially in photovoltaic (PV) systems. In this paper, the current Vietnamese technical and administrative framework for the connection of PV systems to the power grid is presented and critically compared to the Italian one, in order to define the bases for future cooperation in distributed generation and renewable sectors.
Different Languages - Different Sentence Types? On Exclamative Sentences
2016
It is not equally easy for all languages to establish an exclamative sentence type. It seems the easiest for those languages that feature a morphological marking for an exclamative sentence type like Turkish or Vietnamese. English on the other hand is a language that does not mark exclamative clauses with an easily identifiable marker but uses certain preferred constructions, which allow us to separate a class of ‘exclamative sentences’ from other sentence types. However, there is another class of languages for which it is even harder to determine if ‘exclamative sentences’ exist as a sentence type. In those languages, these sentences share a striking amount of formal properties with senten…
Muhammad Alin nousu poliittiskulttuuriseksi ikoniksi : yhteiskunnallisten taustatekijöiden liikuntasosiologinen analyysi
2015
Urheiluhistorian merkkihenkilöistä puhuttaessa yksi nimi nousee usein ylitse muiden. Nyrkkeilijä Muhammad Ali on olympiavoittaja sekä kolminkertainen maailmanmestari. Alin urheilulliset saavutukset ja meriitit kuitenkin kalpenevat hänen yhteiskunnallisten saavutustensa rinnalla. 1960- ja 1970-luvuilla Muhammad Alista tuli enemmän kuin pelkkä urheilija. Hänestä tuli poliittiskulttuurinen ikoni ja kokonaisen aikakauden kuvajainen. Hänestä tuli myyttinen symboli, jonka tapahtumarikas taival on kiehtonut tutkijoita, toimittajia, historian harrastajia, penkkiurheilijoita sekä viihteentekijöitä jo yli viidenkymmenen vuoden ajan. Muhammad Aliin tietyllä tapaa tiivistyy liikunnan yhteiskuntatieteid…
Fluke egg characteristics for the diagnosis of human and animal fascioliasis by Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica
2009
In trematodiases, shape and size of the fluke eggs shed with faeces are crucial diagnostic features because of their typically reduced intraspecific variability. In fascioliasis, the usual diagnosis during the biliary stage of infection is based on the classification of eggs found in stools, duodenal contents or bile. The aim of the present study is to validate the identification of Fasciola species based on the shape and size of eggs shed by humans, characterizing their morphometric traits using a computer image analysis system (CIAS). The influence of both the geographical location and of the host (human and livestock) has been analysed. Coprological studies were carried out in fasciolias…
For me the taste of soy is not a barrier to its consumption. And how about you?
2012
International audience; This research investigates the cultural influence on beliefs about and attitudes towards soy foods (French from France vs. Vietnamese from Vietnam) and possible change of beliefs and attitudes and soy consumption habits with a change in cultural environment (French from France vs. French from Vietnam, Vietnamese from Vietnam vs. Vietnamese from France) of French and Vietnamese participants, two countries with very different soy food consumption. Expressed beliefs and attitudes of soy foods resulting from discussions in focus groups, conducted in both countries, were collected and used to derive a questionnaire. French participants differ mainly from Vietnamese partic…
"Pour moi, le goût du soja n'est pas une barrière à la consommation. Et pour vous ?" : Effet de la culture sur les croyances, attitudes et préférence…
2010
Understanding consumers' beliefs, attitudes and sensory preference is the key to a successful development and introduction of a new food. This thesis carried out a series of cross-cultural studies, France vs. Vietnam, on consumers' representation of soy foods and on sensory perception and preference of soy yogurts, a soy derived product recently developed for French market which does not exist on the Vietnamese market. Despite a favourable image of soy in terms of nutrition and health benefices, French participants reported that the barrier to its consumption was the taste of soy. This finding was confirmed by a consumer test in which French participants gave very low hedonic evaluations to…
Review of potential and actual penetration of solar power in Vietnam
2020
With the average solar radiation reaching up to 5 kWh/m2, Vietnam is considered as a country showing an excellent potential for solar power production. Since the year 2000, there have been a lot of studies about the potential of this source in Vietnam. So far, many applications of solar power have been implemented on small, medium, and large scales. In fact, the total capacity of current grid-connected solar power plants has exceeded the planned capacity by 2020 nearly 6 times. However, the studies of solar potential in Vietnam are still incomplete. The policies and mechanisms for developing solar power projects have received attention from the authorities but have not been really satisfact…
Critical Assessments of the Potential for Integrating Renewable Energy into Isolated Grids on Vietnamese Islands: The Case of the An-Binh Grid
2023
Renewable electricity for off-grid areas is widely seen as one of the top choices in supporting local economic development in most countries, and so is Vietnam. Over the years, many isolated networks using renewable energy sources have been deployed for off-grid areas in Vietnam. However, the use of these energy sources in Vietnam’s isolated networks is still facing many challenges due to its infancy here. The issues of reliability and vulnerability of these networks are not given the expected attention. Another challenge is that the issues of the operational security of these systems could also be negatively affected by the variable nature of renewable sources, including static and dynamic…

Sens et pratiques de l’héritage en contexte diasporique
2022
En partant de la notion de discontinuités pour éclairer les concepts d’héritage et de diaspora, cette étude éclaire le sens et les pratiques des jeunes générations d’origine vietnamienne. L’article se concentre sur les événements qui structurent une temporalité de l’héritage et de la transmission. Le décès et la naissance d’un côté et le retour au Vietnam de l’autre nourrissent un sens de la communauté transnationale, alimentée par des pratiques, parfois digitales, qui se révèlent alors toujours tournées vers les liens familiaux.
