    Abstract: In the geophysics of oil exploration and reservoir studies, the surface seismic method is the most commonly used method to obtain a subsurface model in 2 or 3 dimensions. This method plays an increasingly important role in soil investigations for geotechnical, hydrogeological and site characterization studies regarding seismic hazard issues. The goal of this book is to provide a practical guide, using examples from the field, to the application of seismic methods to surface imaging. After reviewing the current state of knowledge in seismic wave propagation, refraction and reflection seismic methods, the book aims to describe how seismic tomography and fullwave form inversion methods can be used to obtain seismic images of the subsurface. Through various synthetic and field examples, the book highlights the benefit of combining different sets of data: refracted waves with reflected waves, and body waves with surface waves. With field data targeting shallow structures, it shows how more accurate geophysical models can be obtained by using the proposed hybrid methods. Finally, it shows how the integration of seismic data (3D survey and VSP), logging data (acoustic logging) and core measurements, combined with a succession of specific and advanced processing techniques, enables the development of a 3D high resolution geological model in depth. In addition to these examples, the authors provide readers with guidelines to carry out these operations, in terms of acquisition, as well as processing and interpretation. In each chapter, the reader will find theoretical concepts, practical rules and, above all, actual application examples. For this reason, the book can be used as a text to accompany course lectures or continuing education seminars. This book aims to promote the exchange of information among geologists, geophysicists, and engineers in geotechnical fields

    Abstract: Le présent ouvrage dresse un panorama mondial de la diversité et de la complémentarité des réacteurs de recherche, dont un certain nombre ont été ou sont encore utilisés pour y mener notamment des expérimentations indispensables au développement et à l'exploitation des réacteurs électronucléaires, y compris en rapport avec des questions de sûreté. Cet ouvrage met en évidence les multiples utilisations de ces réacteurs qui, de conceptions très diverses, mobilisent des quantités très variées de substances radioactives présentant des risques plus ou moins importants pour la sûreté ou la radioprotection et dont l'ancienneté ou l'inutilisation pour nombre d'entre eux nécessitent des dispositions appropriées pour maîtriser le vieillissement ou l'obsolescence de certains de leurs équipements, ainsi que, aux plans organisationnel et humain, pour en maintenir une exploitation sûre. Pour certains réacteurs de recherche, des aspects de sûreté et de radioprotection sont à considérer en tenant compte de la présence simultanée, au sein de ces réacteurs, de deux types d'opérateurs : le personnel d'exploitation du réacteur, des opérateurs de dispositifs expérimentaux utilisant les neutrons issus du réacteur pour des besoins de recherche fondamentale ou appliquée. Deux chapitres spécifiques sont dédiés aux normes de sûreté établies sous l'égide de l'AIEA pour les réacteurs de recherche et aux accidents sérieux, notamment de criticité ou de réactivité, survenus dans des réacteurs de recherche. La deuxième partie de l'ouvrage est consacrée aux réacteurs de recherche français, notamment au dispositif réglementaire et aux textes officiels qui leurs sont applicables, au retour d'expérience tiré en France d'événements significatifs et d'accidents survenus - y compris à l'étranger celui, en 2011, de la centrale nucléaire de Fukushima Daiichi -, à la prise en compte d'accidents de réactivité pour la conception des réacteurs de recherche français, ainsi qu'aux réexamens de sûreté décennaux pratiqués en France

    Abstract: This publication gives a global overview of the diversity and complementarity of research reactors, some of which have been or are still being used to conduct experiments that are essential for the development and operation of nuclear power reactors, including in relation to safety issues. This work highlights the many uses of these reactors, which have very different designs, use highly varied quantities of radioactive substances with varying levels of risk for safety and radiation protection, and which - in many cases because they are old or have been shut down - require appropriate measures to control the ageing or obsolescence of some of their equipment, as well as, on an organisational and human level, to ensure that they continue to be operated safely. For some research reactors, safety and radiation protection aspects must be considered, taking into account that two types of operators are present at the same time within these reactors: reactor operating personnel and operators in charge of experimental devices using neutrons from the reactor for fundamental or applied research purposes. There are two specific chapters on the safety standards established under the aegis of the IAEA for research reactors and on serious accidents, notably those involving criticality and reactivity, in research reactors. The second part of the work focuses on French research reactors, including the regulations and official documents applicable to these reactors, on lessons learned in France from significant events and accidents - as well as abroad, such as the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident in 2011 - on the consideration of reactivity accidents in the design of French research reactors, and on the ten-yearly safety reviews carried out in France

    Abstract: Des démarches classiquement appliquées en géophysiques d'exploration profonde, combinant différentes méthodes sismiques et diagraphiques, peuvent techniquement se décliner pour certaines reconnaissances géotechniques, hydrogéologiques ou des caractérisations de site dans le cadre d'études d'aléa sismique. Aujourd'hui la mise en œuvre de ce type de reconnaissances géophysiques est tout à fait réaliste, si les enjeux le nécessitent. Après un état de l'art concernant les mesures en forage des vitesses de cisaillement du sous-sol, appliquées au domaine géotechnique, cet ouvrage illustre la faisabilité de réaliser pour ce même domaine des profils sismiques verticaux (PSV) et des diagraphies. Cette démarche, illustre également l'intérêt de la combinaison des mesures de vitesse des formations fournies par les outils de sismique en forage (PSV) et les outils acoustiques (soniques). Un exemple innovant d'application des méthodes sismiques en forage et des diagraphies est présenté ensuite par l'étude d'un aquifère calcaire karstifié, relativement proche de la surface (de 20 à 130 m). On y montre comment une description multi échelle du réservoir peut être réalisée en intégrants les informations fournies par différentes méthodes sismiques de surface 3D-THR, diagraphies acoustiques en champs total, PSV avec hydrophones, imageries de paroi et mesures de débitmétrie. Dans cet ouvrage, les auteurs donnent également aux lecteurs des clefs pour mener à bien ces opérations, aussi bien vis-à-vis de leurs acquisitions, que de leurs traitements et interprétations. Ainsi, les utilisateurs pourront puiser l'inspiration de poursuivre la transposition de techniques pétrolières ou innovantes pour les études de la proche surface

    Abstract: Approaches that are typically applied in deep exploration geophysics, combining different seismic and logging methods, can be technically adapted for certain geotechnical or hydrogeological surveys or some site characterizations in the framework of seismic hazard studies. Currently it is entirely feasible to implement this type of geophysical surveying if the situation requires. After reviewing the current state of knowledge regarding borehole measurements of subsurface shear velocities applied to the geotechnical field, this book illustrates the feasibility of carrying out vertical seismic profiles (VSPs) and logs in this field. This approach also illustrates the value of combining velocity measurements of formations provided by borehole seismic tools (VSP) and acoustic (sonic) tools. An innovative example of the application of borehole seismic and logging methods is then presented in the case study of a relatively near-surface (from 20 to 130 m) karst carbonate aquifer. It shows how a multi-scale description of the reservoir can be carried out by integrating the information provided by different 3D-THR surface seismic methods, full waveform acoustic logging, VSP with hydrophones, borehole optical televiewer and flow measurements. In this book the authors provide readers with guidelines to carry out these operations, in terms of acquisitions as well as processing and interpretation. Thus, users will be able to draw inspiration to continue transferring petroleum techniques and other innovative methods for use in near-surface studies

    Abstract: Des démarches classiquement appliquées en géophysiques d'exploration profonde, combinant différentes méthodes sismiques et diagraphiques, peuvent techniquement se décliner pour certaines reconnaissances géotechniques, hydrogéologiques ou des caractérisations de site dans le cadre d'études d'aléa sismique. Aujourd'hui la mise en œuvre de ce type de reconnaissances géophysiques est tout à fait réaliste, si les enjeux le nécessitent. Après un état de l'art concernant les mesures en forage des vitesses de cisaillement du sous-sol, appliquées au domaine géotechnique, cet ouvrage illustre la faisabilité de réaliser pour ce même domaine des profils sismiques verticaux (PSV) et des diagraphies. Cette démarche, illustre également l'intérêt de la combinaison des mesures de vitesse des formations fournies par les outils de sismique en forage (PSV) et les outils acoustiques (soniques). Un exemple innovant d'application des méthodes sismiques en forage et des diagraphies est présenté ensuite par l'étude d'un aquifère calcaire karstifié, relativement proche de la surface (de 20 à 130 m). On y montre comment une description multi échelle du réservoir peut être réalisée en intégrants les informations fournies par différentes méthodes sismiques de surface 3D-THR, diagraphies acoustiques en champs total, PSV avec hydrophones, imageries de paroi et mesures de débitmétrie. Dans cet ouvrage, les auteurs donnent également aux lecteurs des clefs pour mener à bien ces opérations, aussi bien vis-à-vis de leurs acquisitions, que de leurs traitements et interprétations. Ainsi, les utilisateurs pourront puiser l'inspiration de poursuivre la transposition de techniques pétrolières ou innovantes pour les études de la proche surface

    Abstract: L'après Première guerre mondiale a favorisé le déclenchement de la professionnalisation de la chimie en France, tandis que l'industrie chimique se recomposait dans un cadre économique profondément modifié par le conflit. L'ouvrage présente en premier lieu des organisations nationales et internationales de la chimie. En particulier, des réseaux très actifs de chimie industrielle ont contribué à renforcer les échanges entre spécialistes et à améliorer l'image du secteur. Parallèlement, les modifications profondes des activités industrielles survenues avec l'effort de guerre ont généré la production massive de différents produits chimiques et le développement de nouvelles entreprises. Dans ce contexte, sont abordées les évolutions observées dans différentes zones économiques du pays et dans plusieurs domaines de production. Ainsi les restructurations des industries chimiques et des formations professionnelles dans le Sud-Est de la France sont examinées dans le cadre de la région lyonnaise. Puis vient ensuite la présentation d'initiatives industrielles prises dans l'Ouest (Nantes), le Sud-Ouest (Bordeaux), et le Midi (Toulouse). Enfin, l'étude d'une innovation, qui s'est expatriée aux États-Unis pour se développer avec succès, au moment de la recherche en France sur le « carburant national », est un exemple significatif des hésitations de la chimie dans l'entre-deux-guerres. Développement ou stagnation des activités, tel est l'un des constats faits lors de ce parcours dans une période historique encore peu explorée

    Abstract: For more than 40 years, IPSN then IRSN has conducted research and development on nuclear safety, specifically concerning pressurized water reactors, which are the reactor type used in France. This publication reports on the progress of this research and development in each area of study - loss-of-coolant accidents, core melt accidents, fires and external hazards, component aging, etc. -, the remaining uncertainties and, in some cases, new measures that should be developed to consolidate the safety of today's reactors and also those of tomorrow. A chapter of this report is also devoted to research into human and organizational factors, and the human and social sciences more generally. All of the work is reviewed in the light of the safety issues raised by feedback from major accidents such as Chernobyl and Fukushima Daiichi, as well as the issues raised by assessments conducted, for example, as part of the ten-year reviews of safety at French nuclear reactors. Finally, through the subjects it discusses, this report illustrates the many partnerships and exchanges forged by IRSN with public, industrial and academic bodies both within Europe and internationally

    Abstract: Le changement climatique, résultant de l'émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) dans l'atmosphère, pourrait modifier profondément l'équilibre de la planète. Malgré des engagements forts au niveau mondial, mais surtout au niveau européen, les progrès enregistrés sont extrêmement décevants. Ce livre a pour ambition d'apporter aux citoyens une information complète, mais aussi à la portée de tous, sur l'évolution en France, en Europe et dans le monde. Il dresse un panorama de l'énergie, productions et consommations, de son impact sur le dérèglement climatique, mais également sur la biosphère, la santé, l'économie et la société. Plus particulièrement, en ce qui concerne la France, les objectifs de la Loi relative à la transition énergétique pour une croissance verte (LTECV) sont rappelés et examinés. Les premiers résultats se révèlent souvent décevants. Pour sortir de cet échec des éléments de réflexion sont proposés, pour une politique de l'énergie efficace basée sur des priorités claires et des échéances cohérentes. Cette politique doit tenir compte de la situation particulière de la France, qui bénéficie aujourd'hui d'une électricité n'émettant que très peu de gaz carbonique, le principal gaz à effet de serre. Or la politique nationale a donné depuis une dizaine d'année priorité à une réduction du nucléaire, décarboné, plutôt qu'à la réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre. La France devrait être capable de respecter ses engagements, à condition de réorienter la LTECV avec un objectif clair de réduction des émissions de GES, au meilleur coût et en préservant le lien social qui nous unis dans de nombreux domaines grâce aux infrastructures communes bâties par le génération précédentes (électricité, gaz, eau, réseaux de transports, ...)

    Abstract: Cet ouvrage, dans la vision pluridisciplinaire de l'Académie, montre les progrès scientifiques réalisés depuis les premiers travaux d'Albert Einstein et de ses contemporains du début du XXe siècle sur les deux grands piliers de la Physique moderne que sont la Relativité générale et la Mécanique quantique. Il a la prétention de rassembler les résultats et les observations scientifiques les plus significatifs de la fin du XXe siècle et de ce début de troisième millénaire. Malgré les difficultés actuelles des tentatives de leur conciliation en vue de bâtir une théorie unifiée, ces deux théories montrent leur grande pertinence dans leurs domaines respectifs de validité. Elles nous offrent une vision du monde et de l'Univers d'une richesse insoupçonnée. Ce livre comporte quatre parties. 1) Relativité, ondes de l'univers. 2) Dualité ondes/corpuscules de la physique quantique. 3) Ondes, matière et quantification. 4) Une nouvelle révolution scientifique à l'horizon ? La même exigence traverse en filigrane tous les travaux ou réflexions présentés : l'exigence d'accroître et d'affiner constamment les techniques d'observations et d'expérimentations, et de construire parallèlement les outils mathématiques nécessaires à l'analyse de leurs résultats ; l'exigence de tester les implications des théories jusqu'aux dernières limites permises par ces possibilités observationnelles et expérimentales ; pour résumer l'exigence de mettre sans cesse à l'épreuve les théories dans leur conformité aux observations et expériences, et, à travers leur interprétation, dans le rapport que nous leur attribuons à la « réalité » de notre Univers

    Abstract: Les scientifiques et les ingénieurs ont un rôle majeur à jouer pour l'avenir de l'humanité : ce sont eux qui ont pu alerter le monde sur le danger que court le climat de la planète et sur ses conséquences ; ce sont eux qui en ont identifié une cause très probable et sur laquelle nous pouvons réagir. Notre action dépend de nombreux facteurs : prise de conscience universelle, volontés politiques, solidarité entre les Etats et les peuples, moyens financiers... mais aussi in fine moyens scientifiques et techniques. Cependant, les ingénieurs ne sont pas des magiciens. Remplacer l'usage des ressources énergétiques traditionnelles, stockées depuis des millions d'années, par des ressources non carbonées, autant que possible renouvelables (nucléaire, hydraulique, géothermie, biomasse, vent, soleil...) demande du temps. L'objet de ce livre est double : montrer d'une part l'attention que les ingénieurs et scientifiques portent à cette menace fondamentale et leur compréhension du problème, d'autre part leur souhait de participer davantage aux débats et aux décisions, avec l'espoir d'aboutir à des orientations et des réalisations plus efficaces en faveur de l'objectif recherché. Les auteurs estiment que par leur indépendance, leur objectivité, leurs compétences et leur pragmatisme, les ingénieurs devraient contribuer au rapprochement entre rêve et réalité

In this book the authors provide readers with guidelines to carry out these operations, in terms of acquisitions as well as processing and interpretation. Thus, users will be able to draw inspiration to continue transferring petroleum techniques and other innovative methods for use in near-surface studies

    Abstract: Approaches that are typically applied in deep exploration geophysics, combining different seismic and logging methods, can be technically adapted for certain geotechnical or hydrogeological surveys or some site characterizations in the framework of seismic hazard studies. Currently it is entirely feasible to implement this type of geophysical surveying if the situation requires. After reviewing the current state of knowledge regarding borehole measurements of subsurface shear velocities applied to the geotechnical field, this book illustrates the feasibility of carrying out vertical seismic profiles (VSPs) and logs in this field. This approach also illustrates the value of combining velocity measurements of formations provided by borehole seismic tools (VSP) and acoustic (sonic) tools. An innovative example of the application of borehole seismic and logging methods is then presented in the case study of a relatively near-surface (from 20 to 130 m) karst carbonate aquifer.

    Abstract: Des démarches classiquement appliquées en géophysiques d'exploration profonde, combinant différentes méthodes sismiques et diagraphiques, peuvent techniquement se décliner pour certaines reconnaissances géotechniques, hydrogéologiques ou des caractérisations de site dans le cadre d'études d'aléa sismique. Aujourd'hui la mise en œuvre de ce type de reconnaissances géophysiques est tout à fait réaliste, si les enjeux le nécessitent. Après un état de l'art concernant les mesures en forage des vitesses de cisaillement du sous-sol, appliquées au domaine géotechnique, cet ouvrage illustre la faisabilité de réaliser pour ce même domaine des profils sismiques verticaux (PSV) et des diagraphies. Cette démarche, illustre également l'intérêt de la combinaison des mesures de vitesse des formations fournies par les outils de sismique en forage (PSV) et les outils acoustiques (soniques). Un exemple innovant d'application des méthodes sismiques en forage et des diagraphies est présenté ensuite par l'étude d'un aquifère calcaire karstifié, relativement proche de la surface (de 20 à 130 m). On y montre comment une description multi échelle du réservoir peut être réalisée en intégrants les informations fournies par différentes méthodes sismiques de surface 3D-THR, diagraphies acoustiques en champs total, PSV avec hydrophones, imageries de paroi et mesures de débitmétrie. Dans cet ouvrage, les auteurs donnent également aux lecteurs des clefs pour mener à bien ces opérations, aussi bien vis-à-vis de leurs acquisitions, que de leurs traitements et interprétations. Ainsi, les utilisateurs pourront puiser l'inspiration de poursuivre la transposition de techniques pétrolières ou innovantes pour les études de la proche surface

    Abstract: Following on from the work on the safety of nuclear facility published in 1996, which needed to be updated and extended in scope, IRSN has created a new series of educational publications entitled "Elements of nuclear safety, radiological protection and security". The series takes up the general objective of tackling all aspects of risk management in the nuclear field, in terms of protecting human health, society and the environment. The first publication in this series, covering nuclear security and non-proliferation, describes the measures implemented in France and at international level to prevent terrorism and malicious acts and, if necessary, mitigate the consequences of any such act. It deals with the security of nuclear material, nuclear facilities and the transport of nuclear material, the security of radioactive sources and describes States' undertakings to implement safeguards relative to tracking nuclear material and chemicals to prevent their use for fraudulent purposes. These publications will be of interest to anyone concerned by these issues, especially those who work in the nuclear industry, but it will also answer many questions that members of the public may have regarding these subjects. It indudes information on context and history, the provisions and requirements contained in French regulations and international agreements, as well as details of the roles played by the various entities involved, induding IRSN

    Abstract: Depuis plus de quarante ans, l'IPSN puis l'IRSN mènent des travaux de recherche et de développement dans le domaine de la sûreté nucléaire pour ce qui concerne tout particulièrement les réacteurs à eau sous pression, réacteurs qui équipent le parc électronucléaire français. Ce livre fait état de l'avancement de ces travaux pour chaque thématique abordée - accidents de perte de réfrigérant primaire, accidents de fusion du cœur, incendies et agressions d'origine externe, ou encore vieillissement des composants, etc.-, des incertitudes qui subsistent et, dans certains cas, de nouvelles dispositions qu'il serait opportun de développer pour consolider la sûreté des réacteurs d'aujourd'hui et aussi ceux de demain. Ce livre consacre également un chapitre à la recherche menée dans le domaine des facteurs humains et organisationnels, et plus généralement des sciences humaines et sociales. Tous ces travaux sont mis en regard des questions de sûreté soulevées par le retour d'expérience d'accidents majeurs tels que ceux de Tchernobyl ou de Fukushima Daiichi, aussi bien que de celles soulevées par les expertises menées dans le cadre, par exemple, des réexamens décennaux de sûreté des réacteurs nucléaires français. Enfin ce livre illustre, au travers des thématiques abordées, les très nombreux partenariats et échanges concrétisés par l'Institut avec le monde institutionnel, industriel ou universitaire, au plan européen ou international. La réalisation de cet ouvrage s'inscrit dans la volonté de l'IRSN de pérenniser ses acquis et de faire partager ses connaissances

    Abstract: L'Encyclopédie fut l'ouvrage-phare du Siècle des Lumières. Mais n'est-elle plus, au XXIe siècle, qu'un monument à admirer de loin ? L'objectif de cet ouvrage est de donner envie de la découvrir ou de la redécouvrir. On trouvera ici l'essentiel de ce qu'on sait aujourd'hui sur ces 28 volumes publiés entre 1751 et 1772 par Diderot, D'Alembert et Jaucourt, troisième éditeur méconnu : ce que fut cette gigantesque entreprise éditoriale, sa construction, ses buts, ses ambitions, les obstacles rencontrés. On suivra l'histoire mouvementée de sa publication. On verra comment cette œuvre aux multiples héritages, est aussi le fruit de multiples innovations, grâce aux nombreux scientifiques, philosophes, écrivains, graveurs et dessinateurs, tous parmi les meilleurs de l'époque. Qui a fait quoi ? Comment ? Pourquoi ? Dans quel contexte ? Telles sont les questions auxquelles ce livre espère répondre simplement. À partir des matériaux rassemblés pour l'Édition Numérique Collaborative et CRitique de l'Encyclopédie (ENCCRE), mise en ligne en octobre 2017, et grâce aux recherches historiques les plus récentes, les auteurs invitent à un voyage à travers des savoirs encore vivants, dont les résonances sociales et politiques sont en grande partie d'actualité : la place de la rationalité et de l'esprit critique mérite toujours d'être défendue

    Abstract: L'évolution du climat nous concerne-t-elle vraiment ? On en a parlé au moment de la COP 21, à Paris, puis le sujet a été mis de côté. Ce thème éminemment politique est peu abordé par ceux qui sont chargés de l'action politique. De ce fait, il nous manque un récit collectif qui permette à chacun et collectivement d'organiser notre façon d'envisager notre vie à l'échelon de notre territoire, de notre pays, de notre planète en fonction du climat. Ce livre a pour objectif de participer à l'élaboration de ce récit collectif en partant de l'évolution depuis 1945 de la stratégie énergétique de la France et de l'Europe puis de la lente progression de la prise de conscience de la question du climat entièrement nouvelle pour l'humanité. Le sujet implique une progression considérable de nos connaissances sur le fonctionnement vraiment complexe de notre planète. Ces recherches coordonnées par le Groupe d'Experts Internationaux sur l'évolution du climat sont décrites. Ce livre aborde plus en détail quelque sujets plus rarement traités comme l'élévation du niveau des mers, l'évolution des ressources en eau, sujet de préoccupation majeure pour beaucoup de pays, le méthane acteur en partie naturel de l'effet de serre, la géo-ingénierie du climat, le coût à attribuer au carbone émis. Puis la Cop 21, la réunion de Paris, est racontée avec ses aspects diplomatiques et pratiques et sa conclusion, premier pas universel et menacé de solidarité planétaire

    Abstract: Report evaluates strategies for dealing with U.S. partners and adversaries in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East in a time of diminishing defense budgets and American public preference for a domestic focus. The three proposed strategies are to be more assertive, to be more collaborative, or to retrench from international commitments. Each strategy is constrained and a balance will need to be struck among them that varies from region to region

    Abstract: Mounting costs, risks, and public misgivings of waging war are raising the importance of U.S. power to coerce (P2C). The best P2C options are financial sanctions, support for nonviolent political opposition to hostile regimes, and offensive cyber operations. The state against which coercion is most difficult and risky is China, which also happens to pose the strongest challenge to U.S. military options in a vital region

    Abstract: Parce l'image erronée d'une « réserve calorique» colle à la peau des lipides depuis trop d'années, le Dr François Mendy, pédiatre qui a consacré sa vie à la pratique de la médecine et la recherche clinique sur les acides gras, rend hommage dans cet ouvrage à la finesse des systèmes de régulation qui assurent un équilibre précis entre ces « matières grasses de la vie» . Au fil des chapitres, il replace les grandes découvertes, mais aussi les errements scientifiques, dans leur contexte historique. Il rappelle ainsi que la communauté scientifique a bien trop longtemps considéré les lipides comme de simples pourvoyeurs d'énergie, interchangeables avec les glucides et donc non obligatoires dans un régime alimentaire ; une vision erronée pourtant érigée en « dogme» qui empoisonnera la recherche jusque dans les années 1930, et même après ! Puis, il présente successivement les différents types de lipides (acides gras saturés, mono-insaturés, poly-insaturés), consacre un chapitre aux acides gras trans (l'occasion là encore de souligner les erreurs de la simplification qui a jeté l'opprobre sur tous les trans), un autre au cholestérol, le suivant aux mécanismes de régulation. Puis, le pédiatre propose une mise en application pratique à travers le suivi de l'incroyable croissance du fœtus puis de l'enfant, soutenue en grande partie par les lipides dans leur immense complexité d'action. Enfin, il dénonce 50 ans d'excès et de dérives médiatiques qui ont impacté le monde des lipides... et la santé des citoyens. Autant de chapitres dans lesquels le lecteur peut se plonger intégralement pour découvrir par exemple que les acides gras polyinsaturés sont aussi les précurseurs de nombreux médiateurs de l'inflammation, et participent à ce titre parfois à l'entretien parfois à l'extinction du « feu» des multiples pathologies inflammatoires (obésité, diabète, arthrite, etc.)... et aux voies de recherche pour enrayer ces maladies. Il peut également « picorer» des réponses ici et là, chaque chapitre se terminant par un didactique résumé qui permet au lecteur d'en retenir l'essentiel

To reduce costs, the Air Force asked RAND to identify non-materiel means—doctrine, organization, training, leadership and education, personnel, facilities, and policy—to enhance space resilience over the near and far terms

    Abstract: How safe are autonomous vehicles? The answer is crucial for developing sound policies to govern their deployment. This report evaluates whether it is practical to test-drive autonomous vehicles to assess their safety. We find that it would take hundreds of millions of miles and sometimes hundreds of billions of miles of test-driving to provide clear statistical evidence of autonomous vehicle safety, suggesting it is not a practical approach
