Full textAbstract:
The coast of Vendee, south of the Pointe du Grouin du Cou, has been the scene of a fast morphological evolution: the coastal bar of La Tranche, the spit of Arcay with ridges and furrows, and the bar of the Pointe de l'Aiguillon. The rather quick advance of the latter since the Middle Ages has narrowed the opening of the Anse de l'Aiguillon and thus facilitated the deposit of sediment in the Anse, which has reduced the size of the bay. A few centuries ago this bay went further east and north.

Full textAbstract:
Résumé La méthode SHYREG a été développée pour la connaissance régionale des quantiles de débits de crue (débit de pointe et lames d'eau maximales écoulées sur les durées de 1 h à 72 h) pour les périodes de retour de 2 à 100 ans suivant une approche spatialisée. Elle associe un simulateur de pluies horaires et une modélisation simple pluie-débit, mis en oeuvre à une résolution kilométrique. Les quantiles de débits se déduisent directement des distributions de fréquence empiriques des valeurs maximales extraites des très longues chroniques de débit simulées. On obtient alors une base de quantiles de crues que l'on peut agréger à l'échelle de n'importe quel bassin versant, moyennant une règle d'abattement avec la surface. La régionalisation de la méthode a été réalisée sur la France métropolitaine, à l'exclusion de la Corse, en exploitant les données hydrométriques de 1 359 stations de jaugeage et des caractéristiques hydro-climatiques et hydrogéologiques spatialisées permettant de décrire la variabilité du paramètre saisonnier du modèle. Au final, cette régionalisation permet la connaissance des quantiles de débits de crue en tout bassin versant de la France métropolitaine avec une bonne restitution des quantiles de débit de pointe et journalier, pour les périodes de retour comprises entre 2 et 10 ans : un critère de Nash minimum de 80 % est obtenu sur les quantiles de débit de pointe pseudo-spécifique et de débit journalier spécifique des bassins versants non utilisés pour la régionalisation.

Cinq formes institutionnelles de cette regulation sont mises en evidence; 1- partenariat entre acteurs politicoinstitutionnels; 2- ouverture de l'appareil de formation superieure et de recherche; 3- encadrement des entreprises; 4- gestion fonciere et amenagement de l'espace; 5- marketing spatial. Cette interpretation met en valeur les similitudes et les differences entre les villes francaises et americaines etudieesThe economical, spatial and institutional contemporary transformations en light new techno- industrial spaces : the technopoles, which focus the growth of high tech industry, the internationalization of cities, and the appearance of new political and insitutional actors, at both infra and supra national levels. Based on six cities, the study compares the involvement of the central state, the local governments, the universities and the entrepreneurial community in the growth of high tech industries in france and the usa. The technological policies lead by these actors are conceived, in theoritical terms, as the framework of the local regulation of flexible accumulation. We show cinq institutional forms of this regulation : 1- the partnership between local actors; 2- the opening of universities and research organisations; 3- the sostaining of start-up firms; 4- land use regulation and urban planning; 5- the spatial marketing. This approach emphasizes the similarities and differences between the french and the us. Cities studied

Full textAbstract:
Solea lascaris (risso, 1810) et solea impar (bennett, 1831) sont deux especes de soles poles qui frequentent les cotes bretonnes. Il a ete decrite, d'une maniere precise, la reproduction et la croissance des deux especes. En complement a la connaissance de la biologie des deux especes une etude detaillee de leur alimentation et des conclusions sur leur ethologie alimentaire sont presentees ici. L'analyse combinee de l'evolution du rgs moyen, de k, des suivis macroscopique et microscopique des gonades, a contribue a situer avec certitude la periode de ponte des deux especes. S. Lascaris et s. Impar ont en mer d'iroise, une periode de ponte printaniere et estivale, qui s'etale d'avril a aout. Chez les deux especes, elle comprend deux series d'emissions d'une duree moyenne d'un mois et demi separees par une periode d'inter-ponte d'environ un mois. Les soles poles sont d'origine meridionale ; dans leur progression vers le nord elles semblent avoir conserve leur affinite pour des eaux temperees chaudes dont l'elevation de temperature, printaniere et estivale, conditionnerait leur maturation et leur ponte. Dans ce travail, la croissance des soles poles a ete etudiee a partir de l'estimation de l'age des individus par observation des otolithes. Les longueurs totales moyennes lt des males et des femelles, chez les deux especes, ne different significativement qu'a partir de la troisieme annee. A partir de ce moment, les males des deux especes presentent un accroissement plus lent que les femelles. L'apparition de ce ralentissement de croissance peut correspondre a l'epoque ou les males atteignent leur premiere maturite sexuelle. Solea lascaris et s. Impar sont peu exploitees sur la zone geographique de cette etude. Les longevites observees correspondent vraisemblablement aux longevites maximales que peuvent atteindre les deux especes. Les conditions d'environnement qu'elles y rencontrent ne sont pas celles qui favorisent leur croissance optimale. Les vitesses de croissance revelees au cours de ce travail sont probablement plus faibles que celles observables chez des individus des deux especes vivant plus au sud. Les parametres et lois de croissance obtenus ici, a partir d'un grand nombre de donnees relatives a des individus d'une gamme de tailles etendue, sont donc probablement specifiques aux individus de la region. Les deux especes sont carnivores et leurs proies principales sont endogees ou epigees. Les crustaces, notamment les amphipodes et les mysidaces, constituent la base de leurs regimes. Le choix des proies depend de leurs disponibilite, vulnerabilite et accessibilite. Cette derniere peut dependre d'un facteur saisonnier ou du cycle biologique. L'analyse comparative des regimes des femelles et des males, de differentes tailles, montre que chacun a ses especes proies preferentielles, qui se distribuent sur des facies bio-sedimentaires similaires. Elles frequentent essentiellement les fonds de sables fins ou elles trouvent 70% en poids de leur nourriture. Les relations trophiques entre les deux especes indiquent qu'il y a peu de competition inter-specifiques. Elles habitent le plus souvent sur des sables fins, mais elles visitent aussi les sables grossiers a debris coquilliers comme le montre les especes-proies trouvees dans leurs regimes alimentaires. Il sera important de decouvrir leurs deplacements.

Full textAbstract:
Dans un premier temps ce travail décrit la variabilité spatiale des assemblages de macrofaune dans les champs de blocs intertidaux. La distribution des organismes à petite échelle (dm) a tout d'abord été étudiée. Les résultats ont révélé une structure hiérarchique du peuplement, en trois communautés et huit sous-communautés. La variabilité verticale du peuplement le long du gradient hypsométrique a ensuite été abordée. L'étagement de la faune se montre nuancé, tributaire de l'agencement des blocs, qui détermine la présence de refuges élargissant la distribution intertidale des espèces. Ensuite, la variabilité spatiale à l'échelle régionale (100 km) est forte au regard des abondances et des biomasses. Les structures trophiques en termes d'abondance montrent une variabilité hypsométrique et inter-sites. Elles sont directement liées aux variations environnementales. Les structures trophiques en termes de richesse spécifique sont en revanche stables pour un même niveau hypsométrique. Elles révèlent la présence d'un pool d'espèces régional commun, qui se distribue en meta-communauté dans les différents sites. La dynamique du peuplement a été examinée en un site, sur deux ans. La structure des assemblages montre une variabilité temporelle stochastique, sans saisonnalité. Par ailleurs, l'arrivée de débris de macroalgues dans le site dynamise tous les niveaux trophiques mais sans modifier la structure fonctionnelle globale. Ce dernier semble donc être adapté à l'utilisation et au recyclage des détritus algaux. Des études expérimentales ont enfin été réalisées, pour observer les conséquences de la perturbation de l'habitat par retournement des blocs. La fraction mobile de l'assemblage faunistique se montre résistante aux perturbations expérimentées. En revanche, la fraction sessile est fortement atteinte en abondance et, très probablement, en compositionThe spatial variability of macrofaunal community in boulder fields was described. The distribution of organisms at a small scale (dmø) was first analysed. Results revealed a hierarchical structure in the community, which was organised in three sub-communities and eight microcommunities. Vertical variability of the community was then observed along the hypsometric gradient. The well-known intertidal zonation of the fauna was blurred, depending on the boulder arrangements, which determined quantity and quality of shelter for organisms. Spatial variability was studied at regional scale (100 km). Three sites were compared. Results showed a great variability of the abundance and biomass values. Trophic structures expressed in terms of abundance showed a vertical (hypsometric) and horizontal (inter-sites) variability. They directly depended on environmental variations. Trophic structures expressed in terms of species richness showed a vertical variability, but were stable between sites at the same hypsometric level. They revealed the existence of a common regional pool of species, structured as a regional metacommunity. Secondly, community dynamics were studied for two years at one site. Results show a stochastic variability of the abundance, biomass and species richness. Moreover, arrivals of macroalgal debris on the shore enhanced the ecological parameters of each trophic level, but the global trophic structure was not changed. Intertidal macrofaunal communities are adapted to use algal debris as a trophic resource, and then may have a major role in recycling this important primary production in temperate waters. Finally, experimental studies were carried out to assess the impact of habitat disturbance on the macrofaunal community. The mobile part of the community seemed resistant to the experimental disturbance. However the sessile part, which encompassed ascidians, bryozoans and sponges, was impacted

Full textAbstract:
La thèse a pour objectif l'étude des plages sableuses enclavées, i.e. contraintes aux extrémités par des caps rocheux, soumises aux vagues et à un cycle de marée morte-eau vive-eau. Une double approche complémentaire liant études numériques et observations et mesures in situ sur un site-atelier a été retenue. Deux modèles déterministes basés sur les différents processus physiques (hydrodynamiques, hydro-sédimentaires et morphodynamiques) en jeu dans la zone littorale et moyennés sur la verticale (2DH) on été sélectionnés. Le code XBeach (Roelvink et al., 2009) utilise un maillage aux différences finies et intègre certaines spécificités tels qu'un modèle de propagation d'un rouleau d'écume ("roller"), un modèle de génération d'ondes longues et un modèle de développement d'un contre-courant de retour "undertow". Le code TELEMAC (Hervouet, 2007) utilise un maillage aux éléments finis. Pour le site-atelier, les plages enclavées adjacentes de La Palue et de Lostmarc'h en Presqu'île de Crozon (Finistère) ont été choisies pour leur bathymétrie complexe (présence de chenaux de baïne et d'un saillant) et leur géométrie complexe (caps rocheux de longueurs diverses, îlot). Une année d'observations et de mesures in situ (levés topographiques, pose de courantomètres ADV) a été entreprise entre le mois de septembre 2014 et le mois de septembre 2015, par diverses conditions météorologiques.Dans un premier temps, la dynamique globale des plages enclavées, représentées schématiquement par une échancrure rectangulaire, a été appréhendée. En particulier, la genèse d'une barre de déferlement en zone subtidale sous l'influence des dimensions de l'échancrure rocheuse, d'un cycle de marée morte-eau vive-eau et de houles énergétiques a été illustrée à travers plusieurs séries de simulations numériques à l'aide du code XBeach.Dans un deuxième temps, la modélisation hydrodynamique des courants sur les plages de La Palue et de Lostmarc'h a été effectuée, avec l'objectif d'étudier l'influence des caractéristiques des houles (hauteur, période et direction) et de celles de l'échancrure rocheuse (longueur des caps, espacement des caps, inclinaison des pointes) sur la prédiction des courants. Une ouverture sur la modélisation aux éléments finis (TELEMAC) en comparaison à celle aux différences finies (XBeach) a été présentée. Le code XBeach a été validé sur le plan hydrodynamique grâce aux mesures in situ d'une campagne de terrain réalisée en janvier 2015. Une étude numérique hydro-sédimentaire sur une lunaison complète (du 01 septembre 2015 au 29 septembre 2015) a alors été entreprise à l'aide du code XBeach, afin d'étudier l'intensité et la direction des flux sédimentaires instantanés et résiduels au gré des différents climats de houle et de marée, et selon les différents secteurs typologiques des plages de La Palue et de Lotsmarc'h. Cela a permis de mettre en évidence les particularités de la dynamique des plages enclavées par rapport aux plages ouvertes "quasi-infinies", tels que le phénomène de "contournement de cap", mais aussi les similitudes. Les résultats du code XBeach, pour différentes configurations du modèle, ont par ailleurs été comparés aux levés topographiques réalisés au cours du mois de septembre 2015.Dans un troisième temps, après une analyse statistique approfondie des climats de houle au large des plages de La Palue et de Lostmarc'h sur une période de 7 ans, l'impact morphodynamique de tempêtes extrêmes (houles décennale et cinquentennale) conjugué à celui de la hausse du niveau marin induit par le changement climatique, a été estimé sous la forme d'une étude numérique à l'aide du code XBeach sur un profil transversal au sud de la plage de La PalueIn this thesis, waves and neap-spring tide action on sandy embayed beaches constrained by rocky headlands is studied. A complementary approach combining numerical modeling and in situ measurements is used. Two deterministic model based on major physical processes (hydrodynamics, hydro-sedimentary and morphodynamics) present in the coastal zone and averaged over the water height (2DH) have been selected. XBeach (Roelvink et al., 2009) employs a finite difference scheme and incorporates some specific processes such as a roller, wave groups and the associated bound long wave and a undertow. TELEMAC (Hervouet, 2007) is a finite element scheme. Nearby sandy embayed beaches of La Palue and Lostmarc'h (Crozon Peninsula, Finistère) have been chosen for their complex bathymetry (rip channels, tombolo) and geometry (headlands, small island). One year of in situ measurements (topographical surveys, ADV velocimeters) between septembre 2014 and september 2015 has been undertaken, with different waves and tide climates.Firstly, the overall dynamics of embayed beaches built schematically in the form of a rectangular indentation has been caught. Especially, subtidal sandbar formation under the influence of waves, neap-spring tide and rocky headlands has been studied through several sets of numerical simulations.Secondly, hydrodynamic modelling on the embayed beaches of La Palue and Lostmarc'h has been made with the aim of study influence of waves characteristics (height, period and direction) and indentation's ones (headlands length, spacing between headlands, headlands inclination) on the prediction of currents. A simulation using finite element scheme (TELEMAC) has been achieved and compared to those using finite difference scheme (XBeach). XBeach currents predictions at two locations on the beaches of La Palue and Lostmarc'h over the period from the 21st January 2015 to the 23rd January 2015 have been compared to in situ measurements to validate the model. Whereupon, a numerical hydro-sedimentary simulation (using XBeach) over a full lunation from the 1st September 2015 to the 29th September 2015 has been undertaken on these two beaches, with the aim of study the intensity and direction of sediment flux (instantaneous and residual) for various waves and tide climates and for different morphological areas. This work has helped to highlight the dynamics features of embayed beaches compared to open beaches ones, such as headland sand bypassing, but also similarities. Moreover, XBeach morphodynamics predictions have been compared to in situ measurements for different model setup.Thirdly, after an in-depth statistical analysis of wave climates over a 7 year period offshore of La Palue and Lostmarc'h beaches, the morphodynamic impact of extreme storm waves (ten-yearly and fifty-yearly) combined to a sea level rise induced by climatic change on a cross-shore bottom profile south of La Palue has been estimated through a numerical study (using XBeach)

Nous plaçons la sociologie de l'entrepreneuriat comme une extension, aujourd'hui nécessaire, de la sociologie des entreprises. Un de ses buts est d'interroger et de rendre intelligible le processus entrepreneurial, c'est-à-dire l'ensemble des pratiques concrètes qui, sous des formes diverses et multiples, participent à la constitution d'une nouvelle organisation. En d'autres termes, comment se créent les nouvelles entreprises ? Ce questionnement nous amène à parcourir la chaîne des acteurs et des actions qui préside à l'émergence organisationnelle des nouvelles unités socio-productives. Ce mécanisme s'apparente, selon nous, à un processus au cours duquel des ensembles hétérogènes de protagonistes interagissent pour faire advenir collectivement une nouvelle entité, d'un ordre de complexité supérieure à celui des éléments qui l'ont fait apparaître. L'hypothèse générale que nous testons est que les nouvelles organisations portent les marques des processus d'émergence qui ont présidé à leur existence. Elles ne sont pas déterminées par leurs créateurs ou par des facteurs extérieurs, mais elles résultent d'entrepreneurs aux identités entrepreneuriales singulières, qui travaillent en association avec des partenaires, eux-mêmes guidés par des objectifs et des logiques qui leur sont propres. L'émergence peut être présentée comme un cycle dynamique d'échange (de crédits, de ressources ou de démonstrations), qui lie chacune des parties les unes aux autres. Pour que l'émergence arrive à terme, les différents acteurs veillent à préserver l'intérêt commun. Nous illustrons notre propos par une recherche de terrain, qui s'est effectuée à partir d'entretiens et de questionnaires. Elle a été menée sur 45 Entreprises de Nouvelles Technologies et sur leurs partenaires financiers, sur les régions de Nantes et d'AngersThe sociology of the entrepreneurship is an extension of the sociology of the companies, now necessary. It makes you think and understandable the entrepreneurial process that is the concrete practices wich take part in the contribution of a new organization. In other words, how are the companies created ? The general hypothesis tested is the new organizations have in itself the characteristics of the processes of emergence wich settled before their existence. The emergence process can be introduced as a cycle of exchanges (of credits, resources or demonstrations), wich connects the various actors : these actors collectively create a new entity of a superior compexity compared to the elements wich created it

The Caribbean sea, the archipelago and continental borders form a dispersed geographical space, mixing with the bigger maritime routes. This privileged passage has created tierce competition between the various ports in the area. Martinique, Guadeloupe and St-Lucia situated in the Lesser Antilles of the Caribbean archipelago are affected by this phenomena. Due to their dependence with regards to the exterior market, the majority of their merchandise imported and exported passes through the following ports from Pointe-à-Pitre / Jarry in Guadeloupe, from Fort-de-France / Pointe-des-Grives in Martinique and from Castries / Vieux-Fort in St-Lucia, a real survival line for their respective economies. What are their relations knowing that their main commercial partners are France and the European union for the two overseas French departments; the Caricom countries, the Americas and the United Kingdom for Castries, independent countries? In this geopolitics world, is there complimentarity or competition between these three ports taking into account that each port exercises their ambition for transhipment in the Caribbean? What are the ties between the neighbouring islands, taking into account cultural, historical and economical ties? Distance, continuity, breakdown, movement of goods and persons, commercial maritime lines, accessibility ofthe ports, such are the concepts which permit a better comprehension ofthis very specific and complex subject

Full textAbstract:
Peu de travaux se sont attachés à estimer les statistiques relatives aux crues fréquentes en sites non jaugés. Celles-ci ont de fait été délaissées par la communauté hydrologique, plus encline à s’intéresser aux événements extrêmes (périodes de retour d’au moins 10 ans) utilisés dans la gestion du risque inondation. Cependant, le régime des hautes eaux ne se limite pas à ces seules caractéristiques. Une bonne connaissance des crues modérées est requise dans de nombreux domaines comme l’hydroécologie ou l’hydromorphologie. La fréquente occurrence de ces crues implique en effet un modelage régulier du lit. Elles concourent ainsi à conditionner les habitats écologiques au sein des hydrosystèmes d’eau douce.L’objectif de cette thèse consiste à caractériser le régime des crues fréquentes, i.e. de périodes de retour de 1 à 5 ans, en France métropolitaine. Pour cela, il est nécessaire de considérer les chroniques disponibles au plan national, et d’en extraire l’information hydrologique pertinente. La constitution d’un échantillon fiable permettant une analyse robuste représente à ce titre une étape importante. La sélection de stations s’appuie sur une analyse des valeurs extrêmes de débit, extraites des chroniques de débit à pas de temps variable (longueur de la série, stationnarité, comportement des distributions statistiques…), ainsi que sur les informations fournies par les gestionnaires des stations hydrométriques. La démarche adoptée consiste à décrire les évènements de crues modérées dans un souci d’exhaustivité, à la fois en termes de débits mais aussi de volumes, selon une analyse multi-durées décrite par les courbes QdF (débit-durée-fréquence), qui fournissent les quantiles de crue (pic et volumes). Le modèle QdF convergent exploité ici permet de réduire à 3 le nombre de paramètres descriptifs du régime des crues.Pour caractériser le régime des crues fréquentes sur l’ensemble du réseau hydrographique français, la démarche intègre la mise en œuvre de méthodes dites « de régionalisation ». Il s’agit de transférer l’information hydrologique disponible aux sites de mesures vers l’ensemble du réseau hydrographique français. Plusieurs approches ont été envisagées. Ainsi, des formulations empiriques établies sur des découpages régionaux ont été mises en œuvre. Fréquemment utilisée, cette technique nécessite de limiter le nombre de stations présentant des enregistrements disjoints afin d’éviter le risque de représenter une variabilité temporelle plutôt qu’un effet spatial. Le respect de cette contrainte entraîne une perte de 30% de stations hydrométriques de l’échantillon initial.C’est pour limiter cette perte d’information non négligeable que la méthode TREK (Time-REferenced data Kriging) a été développée. Cet algorithme de cartographie a été conçu afin de prendre en compte le support temporel des données disponibles en plus du support spatial. Les données disponibles participent plus ou moins aux estimations selon leur période d'observation propre. TREK permet ainsi d'atténuer la perte de données provoquée par le recours à une période de référence commune ou un seuil maximal de lacunes autorisées. Pour répondre aux objectifs de la thèse, les différentes méthodes d’estimation en sites non jaugés sont mises en œuvre et leur efficience est évaluée dans le cadre d’une validation croisée. Cette démarche de comparaison objective permet de sélectionner le modèle optimal pour caractériser le régime des crues fréquentes sur le réseau hydrographique françaisOnly a few studies have focused on frequent floods regimes at ungauged locations. Most of works have put their efforts on extreme flood events (return periods of 10 years or more) needed for solving many engineering issues in flood risk management. However, high flows regime is not confined to extremes values. A good understanding of frequent floods is required in a wide array of topics like hydroecology and hydromorphomology. Frequent floods provide many functions, maintaining and rejuvenating ecological habitats and influencing the geomorphology of the streambed, so their distribution must be also known.The main objective of this work is to characterise the frequent floods from a statistical point of view (with a return period between 1 and 5 years) in France. Forming the dataset is a preliminary crucial step to derive both robust and reliable statistics. The selection relies on different criteria, for example related to the quality of discharge measurements, the length of records, the self-assessment of people in charge, and finally on an analysis of extreme values extracted from time series (stationarity, shape of the distributions…).A comprehensive description of frequent floods regimes (intensity, duration and frequency) is required. It is achieved by applying the flow-duration–frequency (QdF) model which takes into account the temporal dynamics of floods. This approach is analogous to the intensity-duration–frequency (IdF) model commonly used for extreme rainfall analysis. At gauged locations, the QdF model can be summarised with only three parameters: the position and scale parameters of the exponential distribution fitted to the samples of instantaneous peak floods and a parameter homogeneous to a decay time computed from observed data.Different regionalisation methods were applied for estimating these three QdF parameters at ungauged locations. Regionalisation methods rely on the concept of transferring hydrological information from a site of measurement to ungauged sites. However these approaches require simultaneous records to avoid that the map is spoiled by temporal variability rather than display truly spatial patterns. Regional empirical formulas were derived but the constraints discussed above lead to discard 30% of the dataset.Time-REferenced data Kriging method (TREK) has been developed to overcome this issue. This alogrithm was developped in order to account the temporal support over which the variable of interest has been calculated, in addition to its spatial support. This approach aims at reducing the loss of data caused by the selection of a common reference period of records required to build a reliable dataset. The performances of each method have been assessed by cross-validation and a combination of best features is finally selected to map the frequent flow features over France

Full textAbstract:
Face au développement des services à haute intensité technologique, se pose le problème de leur acceptation. En téléphonie mobile, les Français se rallient progressivement à ces services et cette thèse vise à comprendre cette adoption. La revue de littérature fondée sur l’adoption des innovations et son adaptation au domaine des services permet d’identifier les principaux facteurs qui influencent l’adoption des services à haute intensité technologique. Une étude qualitative exploratoire a permis d’enrichir notre cadre conceptuel que nous avons testé dans une seconde phase auprès de 350 utilisateurs de services mobiles. Finalement, la réalisation d’une étude de cas s’est avérée nécessaire pour expliquer le décollage des services de données en France à partir du lancement sur le marché d’un nouveau téléphone multifonction Smartphone en 2007-2008. Les résultats des trois études réalisées révèlent que les principaux construits du TAM sont pertinents pour expliquer l’utilisation des services à haute intensité technologique. Nos résultats mettent en valeur l’influence des communautés de marque dans le processus d’adoption des équipements et services mobilesWith the development of technology-based services the question of the level of their acceptance was raised. In mobile communication, the French progressively adopt these services. This thesis aims to understand this adoption. The study of the literature in innovations adoption helped us to identify the main factors influencing technology-based services adoption. An exploratory quality study helped us to enrich our conceptual framework. The proposed model was evaluated by quantitative survey among 350 mobile services users. Finally, the execution of a case study proved itself necessary to explain the take-off of the mobile data services in France due to the launch of a multifunction Smartphone device. The results of the three studies reveal that the TAM constructions are pertinent in the explanation of the technology-based services usage. Our results highlight the influence of brand communities in the technology-based services adoption process

Full textAbstract:
La thèse porte sur les stratégies de développement des industries de haute technologie des métropoles, ce que nous appelons les projets technopolitains. La perspective combine une analyse des politiques dans leur cadre institutionnel et une étude des dynamique territoriales qui accompagnent les mutations économiques. En comparant à la fois les projets en aéronautique et en sciences de la vie mis en œuvre à Montréal et à Toulouse, le thèse souligne l'importance du territoire tant dans l'essor de chaque secteur industriel que dans l'élaboration des politiques qui s'y rapportent. Elle met également en lumière l'impact structurant des politiques sur la trajectoire de développement des métropoles. De plus, la thèse met en évidence le jeu des échelles institutionnelles et de la configuration des acteurs publics dans le processus d'élaboration de politiques étant de plus en plus influencées par l'implication du secteur privé. Ainsi, les projets technopolitains résultent du jeu entre une grande variété d'acteurs dont les interactions dépendent des spécificités de l'innovation et de la production de chaque technologie. Cette genèse est également influencée par des forces et des contraintes spatiales propres à chaque ville ou région urbaine. Enfin, la thèse se conclue par une classification de projets technopolitains permettant dès lors un certain degré de généralisation pouvant servir à aborder ou à évaluer de futures politiques et stratégies de développement métropolitainThis dissertation is about the development strategies of high tec industries of metropolises, which we call technopolitan projects. Our perspective combines a public policies analysis in Their institutional framework and the study of territorial dynamics that come along with economic mutations. By comparing at the same time existing projects in Montreal and in Toulouse regarding aeronautics and life sciences activities, this dissertation is underlining the importance of the territory into the development of each industry sectors as well as the making of the policies that are dedicated to it. It also highlight the shaping impact of policies of the metroplitan development path. Moreover, the dissertation is putting into evidence the dynamics of multiscalar institutions and the configuration of public actors within a policy elaboration process increasingly influenced bu the private sector. Therefore, technopolitan projects are the result of the interplay of numerous actors that interacts depending on the specificities of the innovation and production of each technologies. This genesis process is influenced by various spatial forces and contraints which are unique to each city or urban region. At the end, the dissertation is unfolding a classification of technopolitan projects that permits a certain degree of generalization to adress or to evaluate future policy and strategy of metropolitan development

ZusammenfassungTaking as its point of departure G. Toury’s concept of ‘translation policy’ – that is, the question of what is even translated into a certain language at a certain point in time – this article calls attention to the boom in translations intended to optimize domestic ore mining in eighteenth-century France. As many relevant publications on mineralogy and mining of the time were in German, translations from German into French contributed greatly to shaping that boom, as has already been pointed out by research into cultural transfer. Yet whereas existing studies scarcely take the formal design of the translations into account, here that aspect is the main focus. It is conspicuous how the paratexts of the translations, for example, attempt to counter the relevance of the source texts with a ‘quality of their own’ in a compensatory manner, as it were, not least of all as a way of mobilizing the symbolic capital of French. The translations thus also became the site of a competitive process with the aim of securing the national capital of the target culture.

Chapter 1 argues that Wordsworth’s poetics are indebted to his encounters with ballet’s newly expressive, or emotionally narrative, manifestations in both France and England during the 1790s. In the final decades of the eighteenth century, Jean-Georges Noverre reinvented the ballet de cour as the ballet d’action—that is, transformed ballet from a subcategory of courtly pageantry to a pantomimic, storytelling art; in his autobiographical Prelude, Wordsworth describes having danced with a “blithe company” of French patriots during the (Noverre-indebted) Festival of the Federation and, later in England, having enjoyed “shifting pantomimic scenes” at Sadler’s Wells. Those experiences were formative for Wordsworth, a prolific walker, and the chapter evaluates Wordsworth’s Noverre-esque tendency to affiliate stepping with feeling, to associate moving (i.e. walking) feet with moving (i.e. emotionally engaging) art. It considers, in addition to The Prelude, the ballet-evocative themes and forms in Wordsworth’s lyric, especially “I wandered lonely as a cloud.”

Abstract The plan of Operation Overlord and the events of D-Day itself are outlined. Two official reports singled out the remarkable accuracy of Intelligence supplied by Austin’s section [TIS] as one of the primary factors in D-Day’s success. Four aspects of the assault where TIS’s information played a crucial role are examined, but the bulk of the chapter looks at some of the few places where TIS’s Intelligence was incorrect: the Merville, Crisbecq, and Pointe du Hoc batteries, and, most importantly, Omaha beach. The grinding battle of Normandy and the eventual American breakout are described. Austin remained in England for most of this period, and the chapter examines his experience of V1 strikes, and his section’s move first to Portsmouth, and then to Granville, France.

Full textAbstract:
Parmi les administrations, la diplomatie occupe une place à part : via les ambassades, elle doit représenter son pays sur un territoire étranger. Cela suppose de répondre aux lieux concernés, tout en symbolisant avec pertinence l’identité française. Ainsi, le programme requiert un certain sens de l’équilibrisme : d’un côté, la nécessité de prendre en compte un contexte singulier ; de l’autre, quelle image la France souhaite-t-elle y donner d’elle-même ? Les ambassades constituant en fait un équipement assez récent dans l’histoire créative, les architectes choisis par le Quai d’Orsay pour ces chantiers hautement représentatifs ont dû trouver eux-mêmes un équilibre entre les coutumes du métier diplomatique et les changements socioculturels de leur temps. Aussi, quatre exemples d’ambassades clés sous-tendent ce texte, dévoilant deux stratégies diplomatiques et culturelles distinctes. Durant l’entre-deux-guerres, celles de Belgrade et d’Ottawa témoignaient de l’affirmation du genre architectural diplomatique, conservant surtout des référents traditionnels français mais sachant les moderniser avec tact. Après le second conflit mondial, celles de Varsovie et de Washington ont poursuivi avec plus d’énergie encore cette volonté de représenter la France avec des édifices à la pointe de la modernité internationale. En cela, grâce à l’architecture, la diplomatie française a su rappeler combien le pays était au cœur des recherches novatrices, utilisant ces édifices comme un support explicite de cette créativité contemporaine, significative d’une nation dynamique.

Full textAbstract:
Availability and Reliability have become a major concern for operating companies; especially for those where unscheduled outages due to purchased power agreements may be highly penalized. On the other hand, high revenues by the sale of electricity can be achieved if the power generating set performs according to its demand. Economic calculations demonstrate that the bottom line between profit and loss lies within the high 90th% of availability. This paper summarizes the results of an analysis based on the regulations in France with its so-called EJP days (Effacement Jour Pointe). Any loss of highly penalized EJP days is quantified based on known RAM (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability) values of the equipment, as these are the Mean Time Between Failures MTBF’s and the Mean Times To Repair MTTR’s of the overall equipment as well as its subassemblies. In formulating the demand, the past 12 years of assigned EJP days by the Electricité de France, EdF, was analyzed to derive probability ratings of seasonal distributions, weekly distributions and day block distributions. The mathematics of this simulation model are based on well proven statistical procedures (i.e. the Monte Carlo Method). By performing parameter variations, the model can also quantitatively predict how much the Mean Time Between Failures of a heavy duty gas turbine must usually be better for this application when compared to an aeroderivative gas turbine. This is because it normally takes longer to repair or replace a heavy duty gas turbine versus an aeroderivative unit in case of a major unscheduled or forced outage.

EDF is responsible for the production and distribution of electricity on the French islands in Europe and overseas, such as: - Corsica (in the Mediterranean), - Martinique (in the Caribbean), - Guadeloupe (in the Caribbean), - Reunion (in the Indian Ocean), - and French Guiana in South America. Technical and economic studies revealed the viability in these regions of single cycle gas turbine technology for supplying peak demand requirements, or providing transitory means of production pending the installation of heavier production units (conventional thermal power plants, diesel generators or hydropower). After consultations with the major European manufacturers, a list of machines with the capacity to meet the generation specifications, and their characteristics, was prepared. On mainland France EDF had equipped its production units with 24 MW Alsthom MS 5000 and MS 5001 gas turbines. These were little used and studies showed the economic viability of transferring these units to island regions. The program finally adopted was to install the following power generation facilities: JARRY SUD (GUADELOUPE): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5001 – 20 MW – 40 MW KOUROU (FRENCH GUIANA): 2 COOPER ROLLS – 13 MW – 26 MW; 1 ROLLS ROYCE – 11 MW – 11 MW LUCCIANA (CORSICA): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5000 – 24 MW – 48 MW LE PORT (REUNION): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5001 – 20 MW – 40 MW POINTE DES CARRIERES (MARTINIQUE): 2 ALSTHOM MS 5001 – 20 MW – 40 MW or total rated power of: 205 MW The technical details, costs and scheduling of these works are described in the paper. Finally, the authors describe the future development prospects for gas turbines in these regions, and especially certain combined cycle projects for Corsica coupled with a proposed Italy-Corsica-Sardinia natural gas link.

Full textAbstract:
Desde una perspectiva comparatista arquitectura-literatura-pintura y Francia-Inglaterra, hemos abordado la imagen del agua en el «jardín inglés», de moda en el siglo XVIII en la literatura libertina y sentimental, y la pintura llamada «galante» y «pre-romántica» francesas (La Petite Maison de Jean-François Bastide, La Nouvelle Héloïse, de Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Les Liaisons dangereuses de Choderlos de Laclos, Point de Lendemain de Vivant Denon; lienzos y dibujos de Watteau, Boucher, Fragonard, Hubert Robert), repertoriando sus representaciones más emblemáticas, a partir de los tratados arquitectónicos sobre jardines de la época, y su trasposición ficcional e imaginaria en las obras de los escritores y pintores anteriormente indicados. Dicha trasposición se presenta en oposición al agua dentro del jardín «a la francesa», inmóvil, estanca, dominada por la mano del hombre, encerrada en estanques, lagos artificiales perfectamente simétricos y artificialmente armónicos, y fuentes-construcción arquitectónica. En efecto, en el jardín inglés, el agua se representa bajo todas sus formas naturales, libre, fluyente, brava, viva, naciente, desembocando, fuera de todo encierro arquitectónico, al menos en apariencia. Ello nos lleva a la conclusión de que el elemento acuático, si bien cohabita con los otros tres elementos esenciales que en la visión clásica componen el universo, adquiere una importancia primordial en el panorama paisajístico europeo, inglés pero también francés por influencia británica, y su representación imaginaria, y ello de manera paradójica en una época donde triunfa la razón en el pensamiento, pero donde fluye de manera libre un imaginario fresco y cambiante. Se expondrán planos de los jardines ingleses en Francia más representativos de la época y realizados por los arquitectos más notables, así como las obras de los pintores citados anteriormente donde aparecen representaciones de jardines ingleses, que se presentarán en contraste a jardines franceses que coexistieron en el siglo de las Luces con los estudiados.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/XXVColloqueAFUE.2016.2619

I.G. Ehrenburg was a writer, poet, publicist, whose creative legacy can be called an important asset of Russian literature of the twentieth century. The writer, who lived for a long time both in Russia and abroad, was also known in France - his figure was quite significant for the French readers and he was mentioned in various French weeklies. Moreover, he was invited as a journalist, wrote articles himself and gave interviews to French newspapers and magazines. A huge interest in the personality of Ilya Ehrenburg appeared during the Second World War: he was spoken of as a “combat writer”, as a supporter of Franco-Soviet relations, and as a great traveller. And, of course, the French media could not miss Ehrenburg's novel “The Fall of Paris”. In the 90s of the twentieth century, various biographical books about Ehrenburg are published, in which he, from one point of view, was called “a mediocre novelist”, “a weak writer”, but “the embodiment of the era”, and from another point of view - “a travelling Jew” and “a man of conviction”, “a nomad of the world” and “a missionary of culture”. In modern times, we only encounter references to the name of Ilya Ehrenburg as an outstanding journalist, a writer from the 'first wave' of emigration, who stood as a symbol of his era.

Full textAbstract:
Nexia Solutions are currently running a small European network entitled “European Network on the Determination of Site End Points for Radiologically Contaminated Land (ENDSEP)”. Other network members include NRG (Netherlands), UKAEA (UK), CEA (France), SOGIN (Italy), Wismut (Germany), Saxon State Agency of Environment and Geology (Germany). The network is focused on the technical and socio-economical issues associated with the determination of end points for sites potentially, or actually, impacted by radiological contamination. Such issues will cover: • Those associated with the run up to establishing a site end point; • Those associated with verifying that the end points have been met; and • Those associated with post closure. The network’s current high level objectives can be summarized as follows: • Share experience and best practice in the key issues running up to determining site end points; • Gain a better understanding of the potential effects of recent and forthcoming EU legislation; • Assess consistency between approaches; • Highlight potential gaps within the remit of site end point determination and management; and • Consider the formulation of research projects with a view to sharing time and expense. The programme of work revolves around the following key tasks: • Share information, experience and existing good practice. • Look to determine sustainable approaches to contaminated land site end point management. • Through site visits, gain first hand experience of determining an appropriate end point strategy, and identifying and resolving end point issues. • Highlight the key data gaps and consider the development of programmes to either close out these gaps or to build confidence in the approaches taken. • Production of position papers on each technical area highlighting how different countries approach/resolve a specific problem.

In the framework of NESC VII European project, a large experimental program has been dedicated to demonstrate the Warm Pre Stressing (WPS) effect in different testing configurations. One of the CEA (France) contributions to this project is the realization of five point bending tests on large cruciform specimens considering different WPS loading cycles. The five cruciform specimens, sponsored by EDF (France) and IRSN (France), are made of 18MND5 steel. Two of them have been tested on a same LCF (Load-Cool-Fracture) loading cycle, including an isothermal preloading at TWPS = −30°C followed by a cooling down to TFRAC = −150°C at a constant load before an isothermal reloading up to fracture at TFRAC. The results presented in this paper give a successful demonstration of the Warm Pre Stressing effect in biaxial loading conditions on a LCF cycle.

Full textAbstract:
The 2024 French European election took place against the backdrop of an economic and cost-of-living crisis in a context marked by global uncertainty arising from the war in Ukraine, social unrest and deep political discontent with President Emmanuel Macron. Marine Le Pen’s Rassemblement National (RN) emerged as the big winner with 31.4% of the vote, while Macron’s Renaissance list trailed far behind at 14.6%. Meanwhile, Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s left-wing populist La France Insoumise (LFI) won 9.9%, reflecting current internal dissent within the party and deep ideological divisions exposed by the Israel–Hamas war. National issues dominated the electoral agenda in June. Populist voting across both sides of the political spectrum was strongly fuelled by political discontent with Macron, making the 2024 European elections primarily a ‘second-order’ national election. A crucial test for Emmanuel Macron, the outcome of the European election led to the decision by the incumbent president to call a snap legislative election. The election confirmed the electoral strength of the RN; however, it showed the revitalization of the Republican Front against the far right, which blocked Le Pen’s party from winning an absolute majority, delivering instead a hung parliament split into three blocks.

Full textAbstract:
The Computerized Delivery Sequence (CDS) file contains listings for nearly all addresses in the United States. Survey researchers use the CDS as a sampling frame from which to draw an address-based sample (ABS). More than 700,000 addresses on the CDS are marked as drop points, which are mail receptacles shared by multiple housing units (drop units). Drop points are a challenge to sample and present a potential source of error because of their "one-to-many" relationships. Several techniques have been developed to overcome this challenge, including deleting them from the frame or sampling all units at a given drop point. This paper serves as an introduction to these challenges, discusses the pros and cons to each "solution," and provides a list of best practices.

Full textAbstract:
This is the last version available of this study, in which we will review the water charge experiences in France, Mexico and Brazil. However, prior to country cases, the next chapter sets the theoretical and conceptual boundaries of the study. It will not attempt to propose new analytical insights relevant to economic instruments. Instead it will point out the most important issues brought up in the literature that will be useful to the understanding and the evaluation of the country case. In doing so, it will not only present these theoretical and practical issues but also it will bring in existing experiences that will help to elucidate the discussion. These country reviews were undertaken by local experts and are presented in the following sequence: France in Chapter 3, Mexico in Chapter 4 and Brazil in Chapter 5.

Full textAbstract:
This paper challenges the prevailing assumption that the intensification of the weather phenomena known as El Niño and La Niña generally exert upward and downward pressures, respectively, on international food commodity prices that, in turn, affect consumer prices even in distant jurisdictions such as Europe. As regards the first point, we show that there are nuances that have to do with composition effects (the type of commodity) and sample periods (more recent decades present a different frequency of weather events, with producers having adopted mitigation strategies over time), in such a way that the impact is weaker nowadays and, in some cases, may even change sign (for some commodities, depending on the period of reference). With regard to the second point, and focusing on consumer price inflation in the euro area and its four largest constituent countries (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain), we show that it is crucial to account for the mitigating and sample-period-specific role of domestic agricultural policies (in the euro area, the European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy, CAP). To carry out our analysis, we construct a detailed database for the 1970–2023 period and use a local projections empirical framework. Among other results, we show that when using a sample period that starts at the time of the creation of the euro area (in the late 1990s), an intensification of El Niño actually decreases euro area headline inflation by about 0.3 percentage points (pp) after 12 months, while La Niña increases it by 0.6 pp over the same horizon. We explain our results on the basis of the aforementioned factors: composition effects, sample periods, and the CAP.

Full textAbstract:
The Conference on Disarmament (CD) has played a significant role in the negotiation of several major multilateral agreements that continue to contribute to global peace and security. More recently, however, negotiation in the CD has reached an impasse, leaving it unable to make progress on its agenda at a point of growing geopolitical tension. To address this issue, the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR), with the support of France and Germany, organized a high-level retreat in Montreux, Switzerland, on 22–23 June 2023 to discuss ideas to revitalize the work of the CD and its relationship with the wider disarmament machinery. Seventy-nine participants from 60 States (including 51 CD Member States and 9 States that have applied for Observer status to the CD) participated in the retreat in their personal capacity. This report provides a factual summary of the discussion in Montreux.

Full textAbstract:
The article dwells upon the issues of mathematics teaching as a subject training organisational process. Historical principles and tendencies concerning subject-specialised school creation in particular as well as Russian and soviet school practice are analysed in the article. Experience of differentiation process on the high stage of school education in such countries as France, Japan and the USA has been investigated. The main functions of a subject matter mastering conception at high school have been pointed out. Mathematical education is considered to be the principal component of comprehensive education as well as the factor influencing the quality of education at a higher educational establishment on the whole run. The peculiarities of mathematical education content at a subject-specialised school in different directions of mathematical training have been illuminated in the article along with the deep consideration of succession problem of both secondary comprehensive and higher school educational processes correspondingly, which, in their turn, are regarded as the possible ways of education quality improvement in terms of higher educational establishment (HEE). The constructional principles of educational courses in various mathematical subjects are defined in the article.

Full textAbstract:
Point Blue Conservation Science (hereafter Point Blue) conducted landbird monitoring from 16 August 2021 through 15 August 2023 in predominantly riparian habitat found in Point Reyes National Seashore and Golden Gate National Recreation Area. This monitoring was on behalf of the National Park Service?s (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Program. Progress reports, like this one, are intended to document the survey efforts and to provide a basic summary of the data collected. This progress report deviates slightly from the structure of previous progress reports by summarizing two years of data collection instead of one, as outlined in the protocol. The NPS provided additional funding to Point Blue for mist netting and point count surveys in fall 2021 through summer 2022 to complement the standard point count surveys called for by the program protocol. As a consequence, data from the entire fall 2021 through summer 2023 time frame are fully summarized in this report. Point Blue staff conducted monitoring at 15 study sites within the parks using one or both of two methods: point counts and constant-effort mist netting. We report on point count surveys that were conducted during the peak landbird breeding season (May?June) of 2022 and 2023 and mist netting (and associated bird banding) that was conducted in fall 2021 through summer 2023. Staff conduct monitoring at the entire suite of point count sites every third year, which was the 2023 breeding season. Additionally, staff conduct monitoring annually at a subset of core sites (mist netting and point counts) as part of Point Blue?s Palomarin Field Station network of intensive monitoring sites and as a complement to the I&M Program. Staff conducted surveys in fall 2021 through summer 2022 only at these core sites. Of the 126 bird species detected between fall 2021 and summer 2023, 32 are California Partners in Flight Focal Species (CalPIF 2000, CalPIF 2002a, CalPIF 2002b, CalPIF 2004, CalPIF 2009, RHJV 2004), six are California Bird Species of Special Concern (Shuford and Gardali 2008), and one is listed as Threatened by the State of California (CNDDB 2023). Public outreach, via in-person and virtual demonstrations, is an important component of Point Blue?s mist-netting programs. As we navigated reopening to public visitation following COVID-19 restrictions, over 700 members of the public viewed mist netting in person at the study sites as part of organized groups during this two-year period.
