Course/seminar

Wind Farm Control (WFC) is defined as the coordinated control of the turbines in a wind farm, influencing the flow between the turbines as well as the power supply to the electricity system. Its primary goal is to mitigate the wake effects that reduce velocity and increase turbulence behind the turbine(s), while maintaining the stability in the grid.

Séminaire du centre Cefises avec Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent

In this talk, we will describe the system development approach followed by researchers and engineers of the team NAIST-RITS-Panasonic (Japan) for our participation in international robotics competitions such as the Future Convenience Store Challenge (2018 to 2022). In particular, this international competition is about the development of robotic capabilities to execute complex tasks for retail automation. The team built four different robots with multiple end effectors, as well as different technologies for mobile manipulation, vision, and HRI.

Recent earthquakes evidenced that many building structures may have a poor performance in future seismic events.

JOINT ISBA - LFIN SEMINAR by Tiziano Bellini (Prometeia) on ": Model Risk Quantification in Commercial Banking: A Statistical Framework"

Abstract :

Gas-liquid membrane contactor (GLMC) uses hydrophobic porous membrane to separate gaseous feed and liquid absorbent is one of the cost-effective post-combustion carbon capture technologies due to its excellent selectivity and lower energy requirement. Unfortunately, GLMC suffers from membrane wetting, toxic amine usage and energy- intensive solvent regeneration process. Greener solvents, such as carbonate salts, have been used in place of amines to capture CO2 in GLMC.

Contact electrification (also called tribocharging) results from the exchange of electrostatic charge during frictional contacts between same-type or different materials. It can be observed in natural phenomena (dust and sand storms, volcanic eruptions) and it is also present in industrial processes dealing with granular material (silo flows, filtration, fluidization) in which it can cause mixing and transport inefficiencies.

We are pleased to announce the next IREC seminar taking place on Monday March 13th 2023 (12.30 PM to 2.00 PM)

Speaker : Tracey Weissgerber (Berlin Institute of health)

Title : “meta-research: responsible use of methodological shortcut citations, and strategies for making methods more open and reproducible"

Place : Auditoire Gerty Cori, Tour Laënnec, 57 (ground floor)

The seminar will be followed by a workshop for PhD students.
