« Deirdre O’Mahony, artiste et archéologue des savoirs techniques indigènes »
2022
Les projets participatifs et collaboratifs de l’artiste irlandaise Deirdre O’Mahony, ancrés dans le monde rural du Burren, valorisent le patrimoine vernaculaire et les savoir-faire indigènes. Ses recherches de terrain portant sur l’évolution du paysage abordé comme milieu et les collaborations multiples qu’elle entreprend aboutissent à des propositions artistiques revisitant le land art. Ses interventions dans le paysage sont souvent complétées par des propositions dialogiques, dont le repas partagé, qui invite les participants à explorer l’histoire des lieux, les jeux de pouvoir qui s’y tissent et la pertinence des savoirs vernaculaires pour les enjeux de demain, notamment en matière de sé…
Gestions de l'eau et du développement urbain dans l'espace dijonnais :quels modes d'intégration territoriale ?
2006
Urban growth, jointed to technical networks, contributes to human pressure on water resources. In the meantime, the water French policy put management of urban development in accordance with catchments and hydrologic dynamics; that makes districts and intermunicipal groupings adopt new areas and action systems. The urban area of Dijon is located in three catchments and above a wide groundwater. This case shows urban water management gives greater place to precariousness and common character of water resources, even if institutional responses mainly concern town planning regulation.
X-ray tomographic method for measuring three-dimensional deformation and water content distribution in swelling clays
2015
A non-invasive method for simultaneous measurement of the 3D displacement field and the water content distribution of a wetted solid material is developed. The method is based on comparison of X-ray tomographic images of a material sample in the reference state and in the wetted and deformed state. The deformation and water content analyses were successfully compared with numerical results for a cylindrical rubber test sample under axial compression, and with gravimetric results from axially wetted and sliced cylindrical bentonite samples, respectively. The methods were applied in a 4D study (three spatial dimensions and time) of wetting and deformation of purified swelling bentonite doped …
People power : the role of civil society in renewable energy production
2018
The engagement of civil society actors in energy generation can be defined by the term community energy. Community energy initiatives have increased in several countries. This thesis aims at better understanding how this phenomenon emerges and how it can contribute to the decarbonization of our economy. For this purpose, a multi-level perspective on socio-technical transitions and strategic niche management theory were employed as theoretical lenses. The research material consisted of 75 qualitative interviews, a survey of 26 distributed energy experts, and a panel data study of 66 large electric utilities from various countries. Thematic, narrative, regression and descriptive statistical a…
