In this paper we present the results of the national French project SolDuGri dealing with pavement reinforcement by glass fiber grids. In this project, an accelerated pavements test (APT) was performed on 6 pavement sections to evaluate the in situ performance of the reinforcement on their lifetime. The tests consisted in building test sections wit...
Monitoring pavement condition during its service life is paramount in order to antici-pate and optimize the potential maintenance work. For this purpose, different non-destructive techniques (NDT) are used to evaluate the structure distresses condition and to provide necessary information for the maintenance tasks. On their own, they are limited to...
Truck platooning for the transportation of loads is a strategy recently proposed by the automotive sector to cope with traffic congestion, fuel consumption, and operational costs. This new way of configuring trucks changes the typical pressures pavements structures experience. For this reason, the research efforts of the pavement sector should be a...
PURPOSE : Dynamic LCIA has been developed in the past 12 years almost exclusively for climate change impact assessment, and especially the Global Warming Potential (GWP) indicator. Recently, discussions have taken place in France on the issue of integrating, a dynamic GWP indicator in the 2020 regulation (noted RE2020) on new buildings. This regula...

Skid resistance is a significant feature that provides consistent traffic safety management for road pavements. An appropriate level of Skid resistance describes the contribution that the pavement surface makes to tire/road friction, and the surface of the road pavement can reduce vehicle operation cost, traffic accidents, and fatalities, particula...

Interventions are actions taken to make a change, for example heart surgery, an exercise programme or a smoking ban in public. Interventions are described as complex if they comprise several stages or parts or if the context in which they are delivered is complex. A framework on how to develop and evaluate complex interventions was last published b...
Background The MAKASI intervention aimed to empower sub-Saharan immigrants living in the Paris metropolitan area regarding sexual health and reduce their HIV exposure. The intervention was developed based upon a theoretical model of individual empowerment. Purpose A scale was developed using sixteen 4-point Likert items adapted from existing tools ...
This communication describes how datasets for the 1st challenge on Lagrangian Particle Tracking (LPT) and Data Assimilation (DA), held in 2020 and organized within the UE-funded H2020 project HOMER, have been generated. The physical situation, a turbulent wall-bounded flow in the wake of a cylinder, has been simulated using LES with the ONERA HPC s...
Ce rapport d’activité présente les principales actions entreprises en 2020/21 par INRAE EFNO, INRAE BioForA et GBFOR, l'ONF et le CNPF dans le cadre de l'évaluation des variétés issues des vergers à graines de l'Etat. Elles concernent le Douglas, les mélèzes et le cèdre de l’Atlas. DouglasLa majorité des travaux visent à valoriser le réseau de plan...
