Comment Hollywood figure l’intériorité dans les films « hollywoodiens » de David Lynch, Lost Highway (1997), Mulholland Dr. (2001) et Inland Empire (…
2011
The article takes Zachary Baqué's study of Los Angeles in the films of David Lynch as a starting point to explore David Lynch's Hollywood movies. The author contends that the films offer more than a satirical representation of a corrupt, unhealthy system which threatens dreams and artistic creativity, or a parodic play on Hollywood genre and narrative conventions. Rather, Hollywood is a character, a presence, revealed as both horizontal and vertical, physical and abstract, evoking the city, the studio system, cinema and dreams, so that the satire, the visual motifs and clichés and the topography of Hollywood, and the references to Hollywood films, constitute a complex fabric of subjectivity…
Modes de représentation des trajectoires quotidiennes des habitants
2007
Representing the daily trajectories of individuals Current research on inhabitants' daily mobilities has confirmed that individual mobility strategies are based on activity programmes. In France, the Household Travel Survey (HTS) is one of the principal sources of information about individual travel behaviour. Despite some drawbacks, they are rich sources of spatio-temporal data, as well as providing information on individual and household characteristics. However, for daily mobilities to be analysed, the raw data need to be reorganized. This study is based on the Grenoble-area Household Travel Survey, carried out in 2002. We propose to explore the HTS data through examples of individual mo…
Quasi-Lie Brackets and the Breaking of Time-Translation Symmetry for Quantum Systems Embedded in Classical Baths
2018
Many open quantum systems encountered in both natural and synthetic situations are embedded in classical-like baths. Often, the bath degrees of freedom may be represented in terms of canonically conjugate coordinates, but in some cases they may require a non-canonical or non-Hamiltonian representation. Herein, we review an approach to the dynamics and statistical mechanics of quantum subsystems embedded in either non-canonical or non-Hamiltonian classical-like baths which is based on operator-valued quasi-probability functions. These functions typically evolve through the action of quasi-Lie brackets and their associated Quantum-Classical Liouville Equations, or through quasi-Lie brackets a…
Communication analysis of the nomination proposals for inclusion in Unesco's World Heritage list : a comparative reading of “Ancient Georgian traditi…
2021
We live in a globalized world in which the attractiveness of territories, cultural policy and creativity are important levers for economic and sustainable development. Even a small territory or medium-sized cities can build their image by attracting tourists to increase economic benefits. Among other instruments, the Unesco's list has become increasingly popular. What are the consequences of classifying cities, know-how, traditions such as the world heritage of humanity? What are the differences in the ranking of items from different countries? The term heritage indicates all the objects, historical monuments, landscapes, or traditions of a country. There is the classification of these elem…
Theoretical approaches for geometric optimization of urban forms : towards a fractal development of the city
2017
This thesis aims to establish a urban structure that optimizes inhabitant's preferences. In other words, we want to find out which city shape answers the best the residents' aspirations, according to their consumption preferences for urban and green amenities. By considering a theoretical field of study and by characterizing the population by a Cobb-Douglas behavioral pattern, we will build step by step a city, assuming successive arrivais of new individuals, in order to find out which geometric shape gives the most suitable answer. The final goal of this thesis is there to suggest a city with a fractal shape as an appro- priate answer to the resident's expectations. We will show that this …
Incheon, vitrine de la Corée du Sud et masque de Séoul
2007
National audience; The present South Korean government's ambition is to give the port of Incheon the new aspect of a global city thanks to a gigantic free trade zone. The constraints met at different scales lead to wonder about the possibility for Incheon to gain a real international influence. Despite the extent of current improvements which also aim at reducing the size of Seoul, Incheon cannot claim to go beyond its role as a gateway to the capital city whose global functions are deeply rooted in the Korean urban system; Le gouvernement sud-coréen actuel a pour ambition de donner à la ville portuaire d'Incheon un nouveau visage, celui d'une ville globale, grâce à une gigantesque zone fra…
La valeur de la proximité pour une nouvelle interface métabolique
2016
La proximité constitue le noeud conceptuel de la première loi de la géographie de Tobler qui affirme que « tout interagit avec tout, mais deux objets proches ont plus de chance de le faire que deux objets éloignés ». Le concept de proximité ne s’arrête donc pas à une notion purement géographique, mais il acquiert une autre dimension lorsqu’il révèle la composante qualitative des relations au niveau matériel et humain. Bailly (1998) estime que la “proximité” est une condition essentielle pour raccourcir les distances sociales, économiques et culturelles, afin de réduire les tensions et maximiser les interactions entre les acteurs territoriaux.
Characterization of micromixing in a Continuous Oscillatory Baffled Reactor
2018
International audience; Micromixing is the limiting step in the progress of fast reactions and fast crystallization processes. Micromixing performance of a Nitech© glass COBR has been characterized using the competing parallel iodide-iodate test reactions. Macromixing length was also qualitatively determined by visualization of a tracer. The results show that an increase in the amplitude to baffle space ratio and a decrease of oscillation frequency improves mixing performance.
De la literatura misógina medieval a la igualdad de oportunidades entre hombres y mujeres. Descripción de una unidad didáctica para 3º de la ESO
2009
Se explica y comenta los contenidos y secuenciación de una unidad didáctica que contiene como tema transversal la igualdad de oportunidades entre homes y mujeres, preparada para la asignatura de "Valencià. Llengua i literatura" para el curso de 3º de la ESO (que hemos publicado dentro de un proyecto editorial, Ediciones SM, 2007). Los contenidos literarios, tanto teóricos como prácticos, tratan tanto de la obra más celebrada de temática misógina del siglo XV, la novela en verso l'Spill, escrita por Jaume Roig, como la Vita Christi de Isabel de Villena, donde se defiende la dignidad de la mujer. Se contextualiza el tema de la mujer en la literatura europea del siglo XV (Cristina de Pizán). E…
Optimal control and Clairaut-Liouville metrics with applications
2014
The work of this thesis is about the study of the conjugate and cut loci of 2D riemannian or almost-riemannian metrics. We take the point of view of optimal control to apply the Pontryagin Maximum Principle in the purpose of characterize the extremals of the problem considered.We use geometric, numerical and integrability methods to study some Liouville and Clairaut-Liouville metrics on the sphere. In the degenerate case of revolution, the study of the ellipsoid uses geometric methods to fix the cut locus and the nature of the conjugate locus in the oblate and prolate cases. In the general case, extremals will have two distinct type of comportment which correspond to those observed in the r…
