Resumo: O mercado brasileiro de energia elétrica é composto por agentes regulados e caracterizado por negociar contratos, grande parte de longo prazo. Os agentes, objetos de estudo neste trabalho, são os que negociam contratos de energia elétrica atuando como vendedores, ou seja, geradores e comercializadores. Os contratos são aqueles provenientes de empreendimentos de geração em operação, denominados de energia existente". Particularmente, os agentes, quando negociam contratos de longo prazo, estão expostos a riscos de preço e a disponibilidade de lastro de energia elétrica. Este trabalho tem como objetivo desenvolver uma metodologia para um agente que atua como vendedor no mercado brasileiro de energia elétrica contratar e cientemente seu lastro de energia elétrica, maximizando o seu benéfico financeiro. Para este propósito, é construído um modelo de otimização, com o emprego de programação linear, cuja função objetivo é maximizar a receita esperada do agente vendedor através da construção de uma carteira ótima de contratos, de acordo com a regulamentação de comercialização de energia elétrica em vigor. Para modelar as incertezas quanto ao preço da energia elétrica é utilizada a técnica de simulação de Monte Carlo. A mensuração do risco é feita com o uso do conceito denominado, neste trabalho, de Receita ao Risco. O resultado do trabalho é um modelo computacional de otimização que fornece um conjunto de carteiras de contratos e, através de simulações de Monte Carlo, calcula a receita esperada e o risco de cada uma destas carteiras.
Abstract: The Brazilian electricity market is performed by regulated agents and characterized to trade long term contracts. This work studies the agents that trade electricity acting by sellers, that is, generation companies and traders. The contracts are those deriving from existing plants, called \existing energy". When these agents trade long term contracts, they are expose at price risk and electricity availability. The objective of this work is to develop a methodology for a seller that works in the Brazilian market to efficiently contract his electricity to maximize the financial benefit. For this purpose, it is developed an optimization model, with emploies linear program, whose objective function aims to maximize the expected revenue of the seller, in agreement with the actual electricity trading legal rules. Then, it is possible to build an optimal portfolio of contracts. To model the uncertainty of the electricity prices of the contracts it is used the Monte Carlo simulation method. The risk is measure using a concept named in this work by Revenue at Risk. The main product of the work is a computational optimization model that provides a set of portfolios contracts and, by Monte Carlo simulations, computes the expected revenue and the risk of each one of these portfolios.

Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this research is to model a tool to help decision-makers, while facing supplying contracts, in the clinical analysis industry. This tool aims to improve the analysis and evaluation processes to support the elaboration of contractual clauses. It is here emphasized the idea of flexibility, showing how flexible contractual clauses can improve the value of a contract to both suppliers and contractors. Using the tool shall allow managers to appreciate the value of the sensitivity of contracts to variations in price, quantity, variable costs and expected profits, pondering business risks and uncertainty. The here described case study allows to check the usefulness of the tool in order to verify the validity of simulation of flexibility conditions to enhance contractual relationships.

Повний текст джерелаThe work presented in this thesis deals with modeling, specification and testing of models of Systems-on-a-Chip (SoCs) at the transaction abstraction level and higher. SoCs are heterogeneous: they comprise bothhardware components and processors to execute embedded software, which closely interacts with hardware.SystemC-based Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) has been very successful in providing high-level executablecomponent-based models for SoCs, also called virtual prototypes (VPs). These models can be used early in thedesign flow for the development of the software and the validation of the actual hardware. For SystemC/TLMvirtual prototypes, Assertion-Based Verification (ABV) allows property checking early in the design cycle,helping to find bugs early in the model and to save time and effort that are needed for their fixing. TL modelscan be over-constrained, which means that they do not represent all the behaviors of the hardware, and thus,do not allow detection of some malfunctions of the prototype. Our contributions consist of two orthogonal andcomplementary parts: On the one hand, we identify sources of over-constraints in TL models appearing due tothe order of interactions between components, and propose a notion of loose-ordering which allows to removethese over-constraints. On the other hand, we propose a generalized stubbing mechanism which allows the veryearly simulation with SystemC/TLM virtual prototypes.We propose a set of patterns to capture loose-ordering properties, and define a direct translation of thesepatterns into SystemC monitors. Our generalized stubbing mechanism enables the early simulation with Sys-temC/TLM virtual prototypes, in which some components are not entirely determined on the values of theexchanged data, the order of the interactions and/or the timing. Those components have very abstract speci-fications only, in the form of constraints between inputs and outputs. We show that essential synchronizationproblems between components can be captured using our simulation with stubs. The mechanism is generic;we focus only on key concepts, principles and rules which make the stubbing mechanism implementable andapplicable for real, industrial case studies. Any specification language satisfying our requirements (e.g., loose-orderings) can be used to specify the components, i.e., it can be plugged in the stubbing framework. We providea proof of concept to demonstrate the interest of using the simulation with stubs for very early detection andlocalization of synchronization bugs of the design

Por ello, la autora desarrolla un análisis crítico de la simulación en el Código civil peruano desde el enfoque del derecho comparado.

Повний текст джерелаThis paper examines the pricing of barrier options using Monte Carlo Simulations. MATLAB based software is developed to estimate the price of the option using Monte Carlo simulation. We consider a generalized barrier option of knock out type, but we let the domain take the shape of a rectangular box. We investigate the price of this kind of barrier options. We investigate how the box is placed and what effect it will have on the price of the option. We compare the number of trajectories that are needed in order to achieve the same accuracy between this box barrier option and an ordinary option.
Doury, Maxime. "Quantification of tissue perfusion using contrast-enhanced ultrasound : toward robust exam comparison." Thesis, Paris 6, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA066255/document.
Повний текст джерелаQuantification of tissue perfusion from dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound data relies on appropriate modeling of the curve representing the evolution of the contrast-agent concentration inside the studied tissue. Many factors, experimental or physiological, make inter-subject or intra-subject comparison of these perfusion parameters difficult. In this thesis, the reproducibility and the comparison of various quantification methods was investigated through preclinical test-retest experiments and through simulations. The investigated methods were: the log-normal model, the one-compartment model using an arterial input function, and the one-compartment model using a reference tissue. The preclinical experiments revealed the difficulty to estimate an arterial input function directly from the image, as well as the necessity to locally correct for the time of arrival of the contrast agent in the tissue in order to ensure the model accurately fits the experimental enhancement curves. A regularized linear estimation of the parameters of the one-compartment model using a reference tissue taking advantage of multiple tissue regions was then proposed to obtain homogeneous relative values of the tissue blood flow and tissue blood volume, expressed relatively to the parameter value inside the reference tissue. The improved robustness and reproducibility of the method was demonstrated. The influence of factors such as the exam duration, the sampling frequency, the number of tissue regions in the analysis, and the noise amplitude were investigated through simulations, and allowed us to formulate recommendations regarding the acquisition and the analysis of contrast-enhanced ultrasound studies

Повний текст джерелаIn this work, we contribute to make ultrasound contrast agent simpler and more effective to use. First we developed a Simulator of Echo Contrast Imaging (SECI). SECI can simulate ultrasound imaging with contrast agent. It takes into account the probe, the propagating medium, the individual, non linear, response of each bubble. Simulations of bubbles alone, have also been performed, at different MI, transmit frequency, and radius. Then, we validate SECI by comparison with in-vitro experiments. An experimental study of the influence of the MI over the contrast agent behavior has been done. Finally, visualization techniques, based on spectral estimation, auto-regressive modelization, and atomical projection have been tested on in-vitro and in-vivo acquisition

Повний текст джерелаX-ray imaging is widely used in non-destructive testing dedicated to industry, medical or security domain. In most of the radiographic techniques, the image contrast depends on the attenuation of the X-ray beam by the sample. This attenuation is function of the density and thickness of the object and of the wavelength. Therefore, objects like metal covers, bones or weapons bring contrast on the image. In addition to attenuation, phase shifting happens, in particular for low-attenuating material. This phenomenon brings contrast, called phase contrast, and allows a X-ray image of low-attenuating material as plastics, composites, soft tissues or explosives. This work presents development and adaptation, in the X-ray domain, of phase contrast imaging techniques on laboratory equipment. The goal is to bring phase contrast imaging in daily use. This manuscript is split in two parts, simulation and instrumentation. A simulation tool has been developed, mixing geometrical optic and wave optic. Limits of the model and validation are presented. For the instrumental part, two interferometric techniques have been considered. The first one is multi-lateral interferometry where adaptation on X-ray tube is presented for the first time. Interesting use of the measurement recurrence will be introduced. The second one is speckle tracking interferometry, recently adapted on X-ray tube, for which we present new advancements

Повний текст джерелаIn high competitive industrial context where the collaborative partnership becomes a strategic answer to face the increased market requirements, supply contract gradually appears to be a key element in supply chain management. The contribution of this thesis is twofold. In one hand, methodological approach aims at providing deciders with contracting framework support that links clause, risk and performance in order to define, by instrumented approach, the relevant clauses to commit in adequacy with industrial context and supplying relationship. In the other hand, planning model including contractual constraints and simulation platform are developed. Two types of supply contracts (commitments on quantities per period and commitments on quantities per horizon) are simulated, highlighting the impact of these one on local performance (partner view) and global performance (supply chain view)

Повний текст джерелаSimulation is a lie. This notion takes on special characteristics when it comes to simulating a contract. The simulation of contract is one of the most fascinating institutions of the micro-world of contracts. A contract is a simulation when, by mutual agreement of the parties, it does not express their true intent. It is an agreement to hide all or part of the true agreement. Neither French law nor Venezuelan legislators have taken the trouble to define what we should understand by simulation of contract in civil law. This loophole has been filled either by doctrine or case law. Every author and almost all decisions have their own notion of contract simulation. This obviously provides no sure footing when seeking to identify a transaction of this nature. In this work, we have set ourselves the task of identifying the fundamental elements behind simulation of contracts, both in French and Venezuelan civil law

Повний текст джерелаLike other imaging modalities (MRI or X-Ray), ultrasound scanning has become a contrast imaging modality. It consists in the enhancement of standard ultrasound imaging using an intra-veinously injected ultrasound contrast agent (USCA). Video intensity and Doppler signals of perfused region, reached by the contrast agent, are enhanced. Then, contrast imaging allows a better visualization of perfusion of different organs, and the approach of functional imaging like myocardial perfusion study. In vitro efficiency of USCA has been demonstrated, but its in vivo use has shown a decrease of efficiency. This work studies the interactions between contrast agent and intra-corporal medium, and the influence of measurement method in the aims of understanding this lack of efficiency. The influences of intra-corporal medium actions (pulmonary filtering, dilution of USCA bolus, diffusion of internal gas of USCA micro particles cardiac pressure) and ultrasound waves are inspected to evaluate physical modifications of USCA in in-vivo conditions. The impact of these physical changes on acoustical responses of USCA is then studied. As clinical evaluation is performed on echographic images, simulations of echographic signals are computed. Finally, the feasibility of absolute measurement of blood flow rate is evaluated. A comparison between a newly developed fluid dynamics based model of bolus dilution and acoustical measurements made on a circulating tubular phantom is made. Our conclusions are applied to the study of myocardial perfusion using an isolated pig heart model

Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this thesis is to identify principles that could guide the planning of 3D upper-limb movements for different individuals. To this aim, the chosen approach combines novel experiments (namely, a “free reach-endpoint" motor task) with advanced computational techniques (here numerical inverse optimal control). Arm pointing movements without a prescribed final hand position are examined under different conditions of speed or load in order to let emerge various motor control strategies and assess the possible underlying motor planning principles. A core idea is to depart from classical point-to-point reaching paradigms (where the target is generally a dot, e.g. a spotlight target) to study a task in which the endpoint is left free to theparticipants in order to emphasize inter-individual differences as well as the selection process and motor decision that led to the observed strategies. This paradigm thus allows to better decipher the characteristics of the human motor controller. Empirical results are then modeled and interpreted in the inverse optimal control framework, hypothesizing that empirical arm trajectories derive from the minimization of a certain, possibly composite, cost function. This combined approach aims at revealing which principle or rule conceivably drives the planning process of these unrestrained upper-limb movements and to stablish a link between relevant motion parameters, cost functions and inter-individual peculiarities.The results show that subjects produced different motor strategies at both kinematic and dynamic levels depending on how they adapted to speed and/or load variations. Overall, significant motor adaptation of hand trajectories (e.g. location of reach endpoints) and motor commands (e.g. use of interaction torque) were found. Yet, some subjects exhibited stronger dependences than others who varied only little their reach strategies with respect to task-induced speed or load changes. When investigated from the optimal control viewpoint, these results could be accounted for by a composite cost essentially weighting kinematic and dynamic variables differentially at the motor planning stage. Such a composite model outperformed separate kinematic and dynamic ones in predicting the evolution of many important motion features and in explaining inter individual differences. Moreover, it allowed reconciling controversial findings of previous studies by showing that divergent adaptive behaviors can emerge depending on the weights of the elementary cost that may compose the total cost function. In sum, the present results suggest that motor planningof unrestrained3D arm movements necessarily mixes kinematic and kinetic variables and that this trade-off may be idiosyncratic and lead to subtle inter individual differences

Повний текст джерелаIn the common language, acting through intermediaries can be defined as the method which consists in appealing to an intermediary in oder to serve as e screen for the one who really takes advantage of a contract. In the french law, a lot of legal methods meet, under various designations, this broad definition : "convention de prête-nom" (figurehead clause), "contrat de commission" (messenger contract), "clause de reserve de command" (clause of reserve for a friend), "société-écran" (screen-society), "société fictive" (fictitious society), etc. The aim of the thesis is to show the advisability of gathering them under a unitary legal concept and to build a general theory of action through intermediaries [note : in English law, this theme corresponds more or less to the theory of undisclosed principal]. Indeed, despite a great variety of forms, characteristics and legal definitions, all these methods have in common the same problematics and seem to obey to some common, implicit rules. Underlining these common elements naturally leads to the study of the ambiguous and complex relationship between the action through intermediaries and several basic mechanisms of the french law, in particular "representation" (agency) and "simulation" (shamming)

Повний текст джерелаHemodynamics (blood flow dynamics) is now recognized as a key marker in the onset and evolution of many cardiovascular disorders such as aneurysms, stenoses, or blood clot formation. As it provides a comprehensive access to blood flows in-vivo, time-resolved 3D phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (or 4D Flow MRI) has gained an increasing interest over the last years and stands out as a highly relevant tool for diagnosis, patient follow-up and research in cardiovascular diseases. On top of providing a non-invasive access to the 3D velocity field in-vivo, this technique allows retrospective quantification of velocity-derived hemodynamic biomarkers such as relative pressure or shear stress, which are pertinent for medical diagnosis but difficult to measure in practice. However, several acquisition parameters (spatio-temporal resolution, encoding velocity, imaging artifacts) might limit the expected accuracy of the measurements and potentially lead to erroneous diagnosis. Moreover, the intrinsic complexities of the MRI acquisition process make it generally difficult to localize the sources of measurement errors.This thesis aims at developing a methodology for the assessment of 4D Flow MRI measurements in complex flow configuration. A well-controlled experiment gathering an idealized in-vitro flow phantom generating flow structures typical of that observed in the cardiovascular system is designed. The flow is simultaneously predicted by means of a high-order Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solver and measured with 4D flow MRI. By evaluating the differences between the two modalities, it is first shown that the numerical solution can be considered very close to the ground truth velocity field. The analysis also reveals the typical errors present in 4D flow MRI images, whether relevant to the velocity field itself or to classical derived quantities (relative pressure, wall shear stress). Finally, a 4D Flow MRI simulation framework is developed and coupled with CFD to reconstruct the synthetic MR images of the reference flow that correspond to the acquisition protocol, but exempted from experimental measurement errors. Thanks to this new capability, the sources of the potential errors in 4D Flow MRI (hardware, software, sequence) can be identified

Повний текст джерелаWireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a set of battery-powered nodes that include sensors coupled with processing units and wireless transceivers. Nowadays, WSN is a major topic in the research and development domain. Indeed, it constitutes an interesting solution to give an answer to different situations related to social, societal and economic issues such as the need to manage the Smart Grids or to supervise patient’s health in the context of the aging population. This kind of network has the capacity to be simply deployed in harsh environments, such as forests, volcanoes and buildings, to achieve various goals, like tracking targets, animals or human beings for example, or monitoring physical phenomena, such as patient physiological signals or ambient temperature in a building.However, the deployment of WSNs can be critical because of the difficult conditions imposed by the application environment, for example, the high temperatures in the case of volcano activity supervision, or the impossibility of reaching the nodes after deployment, when the WSN must be used to structural health monitoring of a highway or a building. Therefore, researchers and developers need tools to test and evaluate, in the design process of a WSN, node and network performances before deploying it in real surroundings.In this context, simulation can provide a solution that can save time, cost, and effort before deploying a WSN application in its real environment. This explains that simulation tools are widely used in WSN designing stages and for research works evaluation related to this kind of network. Nevertheless, designing a WSN, dedicated to a specific application, needs to address its multilevel structure: topology, nodes and circuits. Thus, to handle the main challenges of WSN design such as energy issues, WSN modelling is considered a complex task because the adopted modelling approach has to take into account the WSN multilevel structure in order to provide exploitable results from different points of view at the same time.In this thesis, we define, propose and implement a cross-level energy-aware model for WSN that allows considering different levels of abstraction at the same time: circuits, nodes and topology. This energy-oriented model is able to trace the energy consumption from multiple points of view: a specific circuit's activity, circuit or node activities, as well as the impact on the WSN lifetime. The proposed model is implemented in a dedicated WSN simulator, which is used, defining different scenarios, to compare obtained results with a well-known simulator and physical WSN nodes with the aim to validate the relevance of our approach

Повний текст джерелаTolerance analysis of mechanism aims at evaluating product quality during its design stage. Technique consists in computing a defect probability of mechanisms in large series production. An assembly condition and a functional condition are checked. Current method mixes a Monte Carlo simulation and an optimization algorithm which is too much time consuming. The objective of this thesis is to develop new efficient method based on probabilistic approach to deal with the tolerance analysis of overconstrained mechanism. First, a linearization procedure is proposed to simplify the optimization algorithm step. The impact of such a procedure on the probability accuracy is studied. To overcome this issue, iterative procedures are proposed to deal with the assembly problem. They enable to compute accurate defect probabilities in a reduced computing time. Besides, a new resolution method based on the system reliability method FORM (First Order Reliability Method) for systems was developed for the functional problem. In order to apply this method, a new system formulation of the tolerance analysis problem is elaborated. Formulation splits up the overconstrained mechanism into several isoconstrained configurations. The goal is to consider only the main configurations which lead to a failure situation. The proposed method greatly reduces the computing time allowing getting result within minutes. Low probabilities can also be reached and the order of magnitude does not influence the computing time

Повний текст джерелаThe simulation of human movement is an active theme of research, particularly in ergonomic analysis to aid in the design of workstations. The aim of this thesis concerns the automatic generation of reaching tasks in the horizontal plane for a virtual humanoid. An objective expressed in the task space, requires coordination of all joints of the mannequin. The main difficulties encountered in the simulation of realistic movements is related to the natural redundancy of the human. Our approach is focused mainly on two aspects: - Motion of the hand's operator in the task space (spatial and temporal aspect), - Coordination of all kinematic chains. To characterize human movement, we conducted a set of motion capture with position and orientation constraints of the hand in the horizontal plane. These acquisitions allowed to know the spatial and temporal evolution of the hand in the task space, for translation and rotation aspects. These acquired data were coupled with a playback method to analyze the intrinsic relations that link the task space to joint space of the model. The automatic generation scheme of realistic motion is based on a stack of task with a kinematic approach. The assumption used to simulate the action is to follow the shortest path in the task space while limiting the cost in the joint space. The scheme is characterized by a set of parameters. A global map of parameter adjustment enables the simulation of a class of realistic movements. Finally, this scheme is validated quantitatively and qualitatively with comparison between the simulation and the human gesture

Повний текст джерелаCurrently MRI exams use contrast agents to enhance contrast imaging and so diagnostics. A contrast agent is most of the time a gadolinium complex in which a chelate ligand is used to avoid Gd release, thus preventing toxic ion to spread in patient’s body. In this thesis we studied magnetic properties of gadolinium complexes that affect the relaxation of a water molecule coordinated to Gd, which is the source of contrast imaging. We focused on the commercial contrast agent ProHance, and some derivatives. The first step was to compute ab initio molecular dynamics of the different systems and analyse them. Then we calculated using quantum chemistry hyperfine interaction and Zero-Field Splitting. The analysis of hyperfine tensors was achieved for each system, and average terms were estimated. The origin of tensors’ fast fluctuations in ProHance system was identified thanks to geometrical collectives variables decomposition. ZFS was decomposed into two contributions: static and transient. We can now set up from ab initio all the necessary ingredients for modeling the electronic relaxation time and then the water coordinated molecule proton relaxation for each of the studied systems

Повний текст джерелаPhase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) is a powerful tool for measuring blood flow and has a wide range of cardiovascular applications. Simulation of PC-MRI from numerical flow data would be useful for addressing the data quality of PC-MRI measurements and to study and understand different artifacts. It would also make it possible to optimize imaging parameters prior to the PC-MRI measurements and to evaluate different methods for measuring wall shear stress.
Based on previous studies a PC-MRI simulation tool was developed. An Eulerian-Lagrangian approach was used to solve the problem. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) data calculated on a fix structured mesh (Eulerian point of view) were used as input. From the CFD data spin particle trajectories were computed. The magnetization of the spin particle is then evaluated as the particle travels along its trajectory (Lagrangian point of view).
The simulated PC-MRI data were evaluated by comparison with PC-MRI measurements on an in vitro phantom. Results indicate that the PC-MRI simulation tool functions well. However, further development is required to include some of the artifacts. Decreasing the computation time will make more accurate and powerful simulations possible. Several suggestions for improvements are presented in this report.

Повний текст джерелаMethods of Statistical Process Control (SPC) are used in the industrial sector to know if work pieces are conforms to specifications. Two methods are used: the Shewhart method and the Exponentially-weighted moving average method (EWMA). An adaptation of these methods to the financial markets is done to create a model which anticipates prices on commodities markets. Both methods are used simultaneously which is the first time. The developed model distinguishes several types of market movements and various types of investors. It is a safe model. Obtaining strong performances is important but reducing risk and limiting losses are too. A simulation of the management of a portfolio which may be invested of twelve commodities is done. The markets are: natural gas, oil, wheat, corn, soybeans, lumber, frozen concentrated orange juice, coffee, cocoa, sugar, cotton and copper. We decide to simulate a portfolio without “leverage” and results are impressive. The simulation is done from January 3rd 2000 to December 31th 2013. The initial capital of the portfolio is $ 10,000,000 and at the end of the simulation is $ 189,868,766. The rate of annual return is 23%. The only negative annual return is that of 2013 (-0.5%) and the best is that of 2010 (67%). The annualized volatility is 17%. The information ratio is exceptional: 0.85! The ability to market timing is 47%. This percentage is ordinary, but the average performance of winning positions is 17% while that of a losing position is -6%. The performance of a winning position, on average, corrects that of three losing positions

Повний текст джерелаPositron emission tomography is a medical imaging modality providing in-vivo volumetric images of functional processes of the human body, which is used for the diagnosis and the following of neurodegenerative diseases. PET efficiency is however limited by its poor spatial resolution, which generates a decrease of the image local contrast and leads to an under-estimation of small cerebral structures involved in the degenerative mechanism of those diseases. This so-called partial volume effect degradation is usually corrected in a post-reconstruction processing framework through the use of anatomical information, whose spatial resolution allows a better discrimination between functional tissues. However, this kind of method has the major drawback of being very sensitive to the residual mismatches on the anatomical information processing. We developed in this thesis an alternative methodology to compensate for the degradation, by incorporating in the reconstruction process both a model of thesystem impulse response and an anatomically-based image prior constraint. This methodology was validated by comparison with a post-reconstruction correction strategy, using data from an anthropomorphic phantom acquisition and then we evaluated its robustness to the residual mismatches through a realistic Monte Carlo simulation corresponding to a cerebral exam. The proposed algorithm was finally applied to reconstruct clinical data

Повний текст джерелаIn recent years, new single crystalline silicon substrates have been built from molecular adhesion of ultrathin silicon films onto a (001) silicon wafer. This technique opens therefore a new way to grow self-organized nanostructures or to engrave chemically a silicon substrate at a nanoscale. This nanostructuration is favored by the elastic deformation of the free surface due to the presence of a buried planar network of intrinsic dislocations forming a low angle twist grain boundary. A transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study including “two beam”, “weak beam” and “multi-beam” conditions, has been undertaken in the aim to analyse in details the structural defects of the intrinsic dislocation network. Indeed, TEM observation shows that this network is imperfect because of an undesired small tilt component arising inevitably from the process of molecular adhesion of the ultrathin film onto the (001) silicon substrate. The dislocation network exhibits two regions I and II, the aspects of which are very different : region I exhibits a square, periodic, pattern of intrinsic screw dislocations, while region II includes periodic breaks of the regular square pattern, appearing as successions of triple nodes of dislocations. Each node is separated from its neighbours by distances of a few nanometers. These small distances explain why these triple nodes were never studied quantitatively in TEM. In the present work, the TEM contrasts of the I and II regions have been calculated in order to determine the lengths and the senses of the Burgers vectors of each dislocation segment. The biperiodic contrast of region I was calculated from the construction of a calculation code based on the N-beam dynamical theory (N <7 beams) and a displacement elastic field u developed in double Fourier series. The more complex region II is modelled from two different formulations of the u field : one uses, in a repeated way, the notion of angular dislocation and the other the concept of a Somigliana dislocation extended over a hexagonal surface

A Bonferroni and an ordered P-value solution to the problem of controlling the experiment-wise Type I error rate are studied and compared in terms of actual size and power when carrying out correlated tests. Although both of these solutions can be used in a wide variety of settings, here they are only investigated in the context of multiple testing that specified pairwise comparisons of means, selected before data are collected, are all equal to zero in a completely randomized, balanced, one factor design where the data are independent random samples from normal distributions all having the same variance. Simulations indicate that both methods are very similar and effective in controlling experiment wise type error at a nominal rate of 0.05. Because the ordered P-value method has, almost uniformly, slightly greater power, it is my recommendation for use in the setting of this report.

Повний текст джерелаéquipements papetiers en complexité et en précision. L'injecteur hydraulique de pâte à papier, appelé caisse de tête dans l'industrie, n'a pas échappé à cette règle. Nous avons analysé chaque partie constituant une caisse de tête, en nous basant sur des observations et mesures directes quand les conditions le permettaient, ou sinon grâce à des simulations numériques, pour répondre à des questions essentielles relatives à l'utilité
et au dimensionnement de chaque partie d'une caisse de tˆete moderne. Pour cela, deux approches ont été retenues : la première est l'étude hydrodynamique de la suspension circulant dans chaque élément, surtout en termes d'´echelle et intensité de turbulence ; la deuxième est l'analyse de la réaction de la pâte à cette énergie.
Nous avons remarqué que l'eau peut être utilisée au lieu d'une suspension fibreuse pour établir les paramètres de dimensionnement. Finalement, nous avons étudié les paramêtres géométriques de la buse terminale d'une caisse de tête pour donner des solutions alternatives aux méthodes actuelles servant au contrôe du jet. Nous
avons démontré que les modèles existants pour caractériser le jet ne sont pas toujours applicables aux caisses de tête modernes et avons observé qu'aucune solution alternative n'est proposée actuellement pour calculer correctement l'angle et le coefficient de contraction du jet. Nous avons montré que le calcul de l'angle du jet est possible pour tout type de géométrie et avons mis en évidence la position de la veine contractée. Nous
avons aussi montré que l'utilisation d'un double convergent peut modifier significativement l'angle de jet et cela devrait être pris en compte.

Повний текст джерелаAlthough the field of multi-agent systems has been largely studied, interactions between agents imply privacy loss. Indeed, solving distributed problems, being frequently combinatorial, implies an extensive exchange of information between agents until an agreement is found. The problem is that existing approaches do not generally consider privacy and focus only on the satisfaction of agents’ constraints to evaluate solution. The works presented in this thesis therefore aim at considering systematically the issue of privacy in distributed reasoning. We show that existing works in the field still let agents preserve implicitly some degree of privacy. We propose an approach based on utility theory, a formal setting well defined in Artificial Intelligence, allowing an objective and quantitative approach to the interests and reasonable behaviours of agents. More precisely, the model we have developed includes non only the usual parameters but also information on agents privacy quantified in term of utility. We also show that these problems must be considered as planning problems where agents choose actions maximizing their utility. Common algorithms can be described as plans usable as generic models by intelligent planners. Conducted experiments let us validate the approach and evaluate the quality of obtained solution, while showing that their efficiency can be improved thanks to privacy considerations

Повний текст джерелаOur law is dominated by a fundamental principle that of contractual freedom. Every individual is free to contract, to choose his co-contracting party but also to choose the type of contract he intends using to fulfil the economic or social operation he wishes to achieve. If, in a given situation, there is one or several contracts whether nominate or innominate, the parties or one of them may not wish to make do with the contractual forms covered within the civil code or the law and decide to choose another type of contract. Thus, in order to react against an often mandatory regulation, the parties look for "substitution contracts" to the conventional contracts. Given the choice the contracting parties have of one type of contract from another, our law will take on a reaction which is expressed in three grounds: the first, that of a check of the reality of a choice of a type of contract made by the parties or one of them. Indeed, the parties may choose one contract in the aim of covering up another or they may inaccurately qualify their relation, either deliberately or not, in order to avoid certain effects of the contract ruled out. The second is that where the law lays down limits to the freedom of the choice of a contract. There are cases where the choice of one contract rather than another will not be considered as lawful whether in pursuance of pre-existent laws when the legislator offers the parties the choice of a contract or on the grounds of infringement of law when the contractual freedom is used to the full. Finally, the third ground of reaction is that where the court will admit the choice of the contract operated by either one or both parties whilst intending to limit the effects. The jurisprudence will then proceed to modulations of the effects of the choice

Повний текст джерелаThe objective of this thesis is design and development of two types of MRI contrast agents (CA) with high efficiency, including macromolecule and nanoparticles. The first substance is Gd(III)-meso-tetra(4-pyridyl)porphyrin (Gd(TPyP)). Its efficiency has been compared with two metalloporphyrin compounds, Mn(III)-meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin (Mn(TSPP)) and Fe(II)-meso-tetra(N-methylpyridiniumyl)porphyrin (Fe(TMPyP)) in presence of two magnetic field of 20 and 60 MHz. Among the metallated porphyrins, Gd(TPyP) exhibits the highest r1 of 24 mM-1s-1 (6-fold higher compared to r1 of Gd-DOTA). In the next step, Gd(TPyP) has been conjugated to chitosan nanoparticles in order to improve its biocompatibility and water solubility. The small water-soluble Gd(TPyP)-conjugated chitosan nanoparticles (~40 nm) show higher (56%) r1 of 38 mM-1. S-1 at 3T than the one of Gd(TPyP) in ethanol and 9-fold greater than r1 of Gd-DOTA. The second complex developed as CA is MnxZn1-xS ( 0. 1 =x=0. 3) nanoparticles while the majority of Mn atoms localized on/ or close to the surface of ZnS nanoparticles to enhance their efficiency as MRI CA. Mn:ZnS nanoparticles exhibits higher r1 compared with the one of commercial Mn-DPDP (r1=2. 8 mM-1s-1 at 42 MHz), which significantly increases from 20. 34 to 75. 5 mM-1s-1 with Mn content in the range of 0. 1-0. 3. Thereafter, effect of particle size on relaxivity of Mn0. 3Zn0. 7S has been investigated. We observed that r1 decreases with increasing particle size due to decreasing the surface to volume ratio from 75. 5 to 42. 81 mM-1s-1. In order to obtain the insight through the relaxivity of Mn:ZnS nanoparticles, computational technique has been carried out to predict the interaction and dynamic of Mn:ZnS and solvent (water) via molecular dynamic simulations (MDs). Thereby, MnxZn1-xS with different dopnat contents ( 0. 1 =x=0. 3) has been modeled via MDs. We achieved to reproduce the crystal structure of MnZnS precisely, within a few percent of experimental values. The study has been completed successfully by adding MnZnS nanoparticles in aqueous solution
