This paper studies an urban navigation filter for land vehicles. Typical urban-canyon phenomena as multipath and GPS outages seriously degrade positioning performance. To deal with these scenarios a hybrid navigation system using GPS and dead-reckoni...
Titanium oxide (TiO2) submicron powders have been treated by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) in a vibro-fluidized bed in order to deposit silicon layers of nanometer scale on each individual grain from silane (SiH4). Experimental results show that fo...
This study presents results on the influence of the nature of the filler on the surface properties of polymeric composites produced by co-grinding in a tumbling ball mill. The polymer used in the study was poly(vinyl acetate) which is a model materia...
Goiffon, Vincent;Virmontois, Cédric;Magnan, Pierre;Cervantes, Paola;Place, Sébastien;Gaillardin, Marc;Girard, Sylvain;Paillet, Philippe;Estribeau, Magali;Martin-Gonthier, Philippe This paper presents an investigation of Total Ionizing Dose induced dark current sources in Pinned PhotoDiodes (PPD) CMOS Image Sensors based on pixel design variations. The influence of several layout parameters is studied. Only one parameter is cha...
This work deals with the multicriteria cost-environment design of multiproduct batch plants, where the design variables are the equipment item sizes as well as the operating conditions. The case study is a multiproduct batch plant for the production ...
In this paper, the problem of sailing yacht rig design has been addressed through the development of a computational framework based on viscous Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) modelling for the aerodynamic part and on a non linear structural modell...
This paper addresses the robust control of a micro-launcher. The general framework of this work is a R&D project of the French space agency (CNES) focused on new launchers. The objective was to evaluate the potentialities of Linear Parameter Varying ...
Suite à l’autorisation d’utiliser de l’huile végétale comme carburant agricole, des éleveurs se sont équipés de presses permettant d’extraire l’huile des graines de colza. Le coproduit de cette extraction est un tourteau dit gras. Les dégradabilités ...
The Aerocrew mission was realized at Ny-Aalesund Arctic Base in December 2007, in theframe of the International Polar Year, and in cooperation with the French Polar Institute. The team made an original training experience, constituting an integrated ...
The SpaceWire network standard is promoted by the ESA and is scheduled to be used as the sole on-board network for future satellites. This network uses a wormhole routing mechanism that can lead to packet blocking in routers and consequently to varia...
