Designing a hybrid powertrain remains a complex task. It is an intricate system involving numerous variables that are spread over different levels: architecture, component technologies, sizing, and control. There is currently a lack of frameworks or tools that help in exploring the entire design space and in finding the global optimal solution thro...

Purpose In urban areas, soil functions are deeply impacted by all human activities, e.g., water infiltration, carbon storage, and chemical substances degradation potential. In this context, nature-based solutions (NBS) are assumed to deliver multiple environmental benefits for soil quality improvement. The H2020 Nature4Cities project (N4C) offers t...

Current transportation systems contributed to one quarter to the Greenhouse Gases (GhG) emissions and the mobility demand increases continuously. The transportation infrastructure design has to be optimized to mitigate these emissions. The methodology ?Sloop? (acronym for Slope Optimization) has recently been set up to optimize the longitudinal roa...

Sustainable sediment management is a global issue due to dredging of rivers and river mouths for navigability and flood protection. Previous studies on sediments beneficial uses have shown that essentially the targeted materials relate to roads and ceramics (bricks, tiles). For sustainable management, these recovery sectors impose the minimization ...

Future climate scenarios for the Mediterranean region indicate a possible decrease in annual precipitation associated with an intensification of extreme rainfall events in the coming years. A major challenge in this region is to evaluate the impacts of changing precipitation patterns on extreme hydrological events such as droughts and floods. For t...

Volcanic hazards pose a potential threat to 8% of the world’s population, yet the economic literature on their short- and long-term consequences on household behavior and economic development is still in its infancy. In this article, we present the state of the literature and highlight knowledge gaps and methodological challenges inherent to the ec...

A major forthcoming sanitary issue concerns the apparition and spreading of drug-resistant microorganisms, potentially threatening millions of humans. In low-income countries, polluted urban runoff and open sewage channels are major sources of microbes. These microbes join natural microbial communities in aquatic ecosystems already impacted by vari...

Applied Rheology
Rheological parameters being of great importance for sludge process management, they are increasingly studied. However, experimental procedures may strongly impact their determination. Sample volume, measuring device depth and roughness but also mechanical history, have to be well-controlled to ensure reproducible results. Indeed, even if shear his...
