Abstract:
S’inscrivant dans le courant historiographique de l’histoire culturelle des relations internationales, cette thèse interroge le rôle des échanges artistiques dans les relations diplomatiques franco-italiennes, du lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale à la construction européenne. L’analyse des expositions réalisées par les services culturels des Affaires étrangères français et italien, respectivement en Italie et en France, met en évidence les rapports de force et les clés du rapprochement franco-italien après 1945. La reconstruction des identités nationales, leurs représentations et leurs circulations de part et d’autre des Alpes, sont ici interrogées au regard de l’élaboration d’une nouvelle forme de diplomatie culturelle dans l’Europe de la Guerre froide. Nous nous attachons, d’abord, à reconstruire l’héritage des politiques culturelles de l’entre-deux-guerres ainsi que la transformation des institutions, et des discours, de l’avant à l’après-guerre. Puis nous détaillons les expositions « militantes », objets de tensions et de forts enjeux géopolitiques sur la scène internationale de 1944 à 1948. Enfin, nous analysons pendant les années 1950 l’émergence de modèles récurrents et des typologies d’expositions qui répondent au besoin d’équilibre diplomatique poursuivi par les gouvernements français et italien dans la formation de l’Europe culturelle après 1945
As part of the current historiography of the cultural studies of international relationships, this thesis questions the role of artistic exchanges in Franco-Italian diplomatic relations, from the aftermath of World War II to the beginnings of European construction. The analysis of exhibitions held by the Cultural Services of the French and Italian Ministries of Foreign Affairs, respectively in Italy and France, highlights the balance of power and the keys to the Franco-Italian reconciliation after 1945. The reconstruction of national identities, their representations and their circulations in both sides of the Alps are questioned in the particular context of the Cold War leading to the rise of a new form of European cultural diplomacy. We focus, firstly, on the modalities of institutional and ideological transition before and after World War II, introducing elements of interruptions and continuities. We then analyze the "militant" exhibitions, main focus of tensions and strong geopolitical issues in the international stage. Finally, we show the emergence of recurring patterns and exhibition typologies which address the need for diplomatic balance pursued by the French and Italian governments in the formation of cultural Europe after 1945

Ci siamo prima impegnati a ricostruire la transizione istituzionale e ideologica dal periodofra le due guerre all’indomani del 1945, mostrandone i punti di rottura e di continuità. Poi, abbiamo esaminato le mostre“militanti”, oggetti di tensioni dai forti accenti geopolitici nello scenario internazionale dal 1944 al 1948.

Abstract:
Looking first for evidence in popular culture, the authors ask whether martyrdom stories still inspire today as they did 2,000 years ago. Three blockbuster stories that became cultural icons turn out to be martyrdom stories: the Harry Potter series, Lord of the Rings, and the Matrix trilogy. At the heart of each, the authors uncover a story that fits the definition of martyrdom. What’s more, their popular appeal around the world seems to be associated with the parallels they share with the Gospel story of Jesus.

Abstract:
Chapter 4, which covers the period from c. 1850 to c. 1960, begins with a genre of representation that came into its own in the nineteenth century: historical fiction. The chapter addresses some of the interpretive challenges that historical fictions present and offers new readings of two early stories about Wolsey, both set in his native Suffolk. The emergence of historical fiction occurred contemporaneously with far-reaching developments in academic historiography. With the publication of copious original documents from the Henrician period came new resources for the study of Wolsey. The chapter explores the work of such historians as James Anthony Froude and J. S. Brewer, alongside the Wolsey biographies of Mandell Creighton (1891), Ethelred Taunton (1902), A. F. Pollard (1929), and Hilaire Belloc (1930). It observes how Victorian historians were often zealous about policing the boundaries of their discipline. Finally, since it is from this period that we have the earliest evidence for the public commemoration of Wolsey, the chapter explores the ways in which the cardinal was remembered in early-twentieth-century civic pageants in Oxford and Ipswich, as well as on the anniversaries of his Oxford foundation, currently known as Christ Church.

<em>Abstract.</em>—Catchment characteristics and land-use practices can affect stream habitats at a variety of spatial scales. A suite of variables describing catchment geomorphology (area, circularity, slope, elevation, soil depth, surficial geology), surface water hydrology (drainage density, water velocity, Froude number), and patch (channel) habitat (slope, bank-full width, water depth, substrate particle size, stored and transported organic matter, transported inorganic sediment) were determined using a geographic information systems and field surveys in 19 upland Adirondack catchments (New York, USA) with differing land uses (New York Forest Preserve [Preserve] versus logging). Surber samples of macroinvertebrate assemblages and stored organic matter were collected in July 2003. Catchment geomorphology was similar between land-use types. However, Preserve streams tended to have deeper and wider channels, despite steeper channel slopes, while logged streams had more stored organic matter and finer substrate particles. We collected 177 macroinvertebrate taxa from the streams, and taxa richness was significantly reduced in logged catchments (<em>p </em>= 0.006). Twenty-seven taxa occurred more frequently in Preserve sites, while nine taxa occurred more commonly in logged streams (chi-square, <em>p </em>< 0.10). Distributions of these taxa were related to water quantity, channel geomorphology, and particle size at the patch scale and circularity, drainage patterns, and sediment load at the reach scale. The presence and absence of invertebrate taxa across the Adirondack landscape was controlled mainly by a combination of catchment-scale geomorphic and anthropogenic (forest management) factors. Patch-scale factors, although influenced by their catchments, had less effect on distributions.

Abstract:
The paper focuses on utilizing the Harmonic Wavelet Transform (HWT) for estimating the evolutionary power spectrum (EPS) of sea storms. A sea storm is considered herein as a non-stationary stochastic process with a time duration of the order of days. The storm evolution can be represented in three stages: the growth, the peak and the decay. Specifically, during growth the intensity of the wave increases with time until reaching the apex, and then decreases. The analysis is carried out by processing the time series of the free surface elevation recorded at the Natural Ocean Engineering Laboratory of Reggio Calabria, Italy. A peculiarity of the NOEL lab is that a local wind from NNW often generates sea states consisting of pure wind waves that represent a small scale model, in Froude similarity, of ocean storms (www.noel.unirc.it). The main focus of the paper is, first, to acquire a joint time-frequency representation of the storm via estimating the associated EPS, and second, to explore the variability in time of the spectrum and of the dominant frequencies of the storm. The EPS is estimated by utilizing a non-stationary record of the sea surface elevation during a storm recorded at NOEL lab. Further, in this paper, the standard representation of sea storms is also considered. That is, the non-stationary process is represented as a sequence of stationary processes (sea states or buoy records), each of them characterized by an intensity defined by a significant wave height Hs and by a duration Δt. During the time interval Δt the sea surface elevation is considered stationary and the frequency spectrum may be computed via the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Results obtained following this procedure, which can be considered essentially as a brute-force application of the short-time FT, are compared with those obtained via a HWT based joint time-frequency analysis.

Abstract:
The present investigation focuses on the motions and global structural loads induced by abnormal waves on a bulk carrier. A nonlinear time domain method based on strip theory is used to predict the ship responses. The results are compared with experimental data obtained at the model scale. The time domain hydrodynamic forces are calculated by convolution of linear memory functions, while nonlinear contributions arise from Froude-Krylov forces, hydrostatic forces and shipping of green water. The time domain simulations are compared directly with experimental records from bulk carrier model tests with in head waves for two Froude numbers. Extreme wave conditions (such as the New Year Wave) previously measured at sea during real storms were replicated both at the seakeeping tank and by the numerical code. The comparison analyses show a good agreement between numerical and experimental with good accuracy.

Abstract:
Abstract EOLINK have developed an innovative floating wind turbine in which the single tower is replaced by a set of legs providing a pyramidal architecture. A 1/10th scale prototype of EOLINK’s 12MW concept has been connected to the grid in April 2018 in France. Firstly, the paper describes the technical specifications of this device. Both the turbine and the floater have been designed using Froude scaling, in order to properly represent the EOLINK full scale 12MW concept. The device has been devised from scratch and deploys a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) and an individual electric blade pitch system. The patented mooring system comprises a single point mooring (SPM) system able to withstand very high tide ranges in shallow waters. Regarding monitoring, motions have been recorded using both an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and high precision Global Positioning System (GPS) sensors. Mooring lines tensions have also been monitored. Wind is recorded using both an embedded anemometer on the floating turbine and onshore anemometers installed by IFREMER. This Institute has also measured wave height using a wave recorder. Secondly, experimental results during production and storm events are presented. The encountered environmental conditions highlight the capability of the EOLINK design to withstand harsh wind events, and its ability to produce 12MW using a small sized semi-submersible floater. Then, numerical analysis using FAST and Flexcom is compared with experimental results. Static analysis, decay-tests, Response Amplitude Operators (RAOs) and Power Spectral Densities (PSDs) results are detailed. Power production and the embedded control command capabilities are also presented.

Abstract:
This paper presents an overview of the successful conclusion of 18 months of testing the first grid-connected floating offshore wind turbine prototype in the Americas. The prototype, called VolturnUS 1:8, was installed off Castine, Maine, USA. The prototype is a 1:8 scale prototype and serves to de-risk the deployment of a full-scale 6MW turbine. VolturnUS utilizes innovations in materials, construction, and deployment technologies such as a concrete semi-submersible hull and an advanced composite tower to reduce the costs of offshore wind. The prototype unit was designed following the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) “Guide for Building and Classing Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Installations”. Froude scaling was used in designing the 1:8-scale VolturnUS prototype so that the motions of the prototype in the relatively protected site represent those of the full-scale unit in an open site farther offshore. During the past year, a comprehensive instrumentation package monitored key performance characteristics of the platform during operational, extreme, and survival storm conditions. Data collected include: wind speed, turbine power, rotor angular frequency, blade pitch, torque, acceleration; tower bending moment, 6 DOF accelerations at tower top and base, mooring line tensions, and wave elevation at the platform. During the past year the prototype has experienced many environments representative of scaled ABS design conditions including operational wind and sea-states, 50-year sea states and 500-year survival sea states. This large data set provides a unique view of a near full-scale floating wind turbine subjected to its prescribed environmental conditions. Inspections of the concrete hull following removal provided confirmation of material durability. Marine growth measurements provide data for future design efforts.

Abstract:
Cold heat storage utilizing night-time electricity is one of the relevant technologies for the electric load leveling. Latent heat storage system with a large number of small paraffin particles is one of the promising technologies for the cold heat storage system. Small paraffin particles are generated by nozzle injection of liquid paraffin into cold water. Direct heat transfer between the ascending particles and surrounding cold water enhances the storage of latent heat in a short time. Transportation of solid paraffin particles suspended in water should be the best way to transport cold heat, because the density of cold heat stored in water/paraffin-particle mixture is very high. The present paper aims at investigating flow patterns and pressure loss of water/nonadecane-particle mixture flowing in horizontal and vertical pipes. The inner diameter and the average diameter of the nonadecane particle were 20mm and 3.7mm, respectively. Reynolds number, Froude number and volumetric concentration of nonadecane particles were varied in the ranges of 5000 ≤ Re ≤ 80000, 1 ≤ Fr ≤ 260 and 0.02 ≤ Cv ≤ 0.25. We found the following main results: (1) Four flow patterns were observed in the horizontal flow, (a) flow with a stationary particle bed, (b) flow with a sliding particle layer (c) heterogeneous suspension flow and (d) homogeneous suspension flow. The flow pattern shifted from (a) to (d) with increasing Reynolds number. (2) Homogeneous suspension flow was observed in the vertical up-flow. (3) Homogeneous and heterogeneous suspension flow was observed in the vertical down-flow. (4) The pressure loss coefficients λ of the horizontal flow were correlated by a function of λ and Re (λ = 0.479 Re−0.311) for the heterogeneous and homogeneous suspension flows (Re ≥ about 25000) and by a function of the excess pressure loss coefficient Φ, Fr and Cv (φ/Cv0.58 = 72.4Fr−1.25) for the flow with a sliding particle layer (Re ≤ about 20000). (5) The pressure loss coefficients of the vertical up-flow were correlated by a function of λ and Re (λ = 4.45 Re−0.501) in a large Reynolds number range of Re ≥ about 40000 and by a function of Φ, Fr and Cv (φ/Cv0.47 = 282Fr−1.47) in a small Reynolds number range of Re ≤ about 40000. (6) The pressure loss coefficients of the vertical down-flow were correlated by a function of Φ and Fr (φ = 73.0Fr−0.765).

Abstract:
The modeling of ship behavior in astern seas requires a large range of maneuverability and seakeeping knowledge since the understanding of the ship motions returns to solve a fluid structure interactions problem between waves and the ship hull. The broaching phenomenon is known as an abrupt change in motion in the horizontal plane, resulting in a loss of ship’s heading. It is characterized by a sudden divergence of yaw. Thus, there is a transfer of the kinetic energy on the roll axis that increases the risk of ship capsize. In the aim of modeling this phenomenon, the developed model uses the capture of the intersection between the ship hull and the free surface. Thus, we can overcome the hydrostatic stiffness matrix and integrate directly the hydrostatic pressure on the immersed surface. This method has the advantage of taking into account non-linearities of the wave profile into the calculation of the immersed surface, directly by performing a remodeling of the facets near the free surface. In the literature, three main factors are likely to affect the stability: the loading of the vessel, the presence of external disturbance torques and inadequate conditions of navigation, as is the case when a ship is caught in a storm. The first two factors are taken into account in the study of static stability, while the third factor is considered in the study of the instantaneous stability. Hydrostatic behavior of a ship is interesting when one wants to know her intact stability limits in calm seas. However, in the study of the ship behavior in following seas, the ship is no longer in usual conditions of navigation, but in unsuitable conditions requiring the study of the instantaneous stability. In the model formulation, the dynamic torsor comes from the general non-linear maneuverability equations and the time advance is solved by a 4th order Runge Kutta scheme with a constant time step. The torsor of the total applied mechanical action on the ship hull is expressed as the superposition of six torsors (gravity, hydrostatic, Froude Krylov, radiation, hydrodynamics and maneuverability) expressed in the center of gravity of the ship. Thus, we obtain a strong coupling between the maneuverability and seakeeping equations. Validation cases will be conducted and presented. The improvement of the model will require the implementation of test campaigns that will be specific for the study of ship behavior in astern seas. Validation of the model will help to define new stability criteria for ships in wave.

Abstract:
Million-gallon double-shell tanks at Hanford are used to store transuranic, high-level, and low-level radioactive wastes. These wastes consist of a large volume of salt-laden solution covering a smaller volume of settled sludge primarily containing metal hydroxides. These wastes will be retrieved and processed into immobile waste forms suitable for permanent disposal. Retrieval is an important step in implementing these disposal scenarios. The retrieval concept evaluated is to use submerged dual-nozzle jet mixer pumps with horizontally oriented nozzles located near the tank floor that produce horizontal jets of fluid to mobilize the settled solids. The mixer pumps are oscillated through 180° about a vertical axis so the high velocity fluid jets sweep across the floor of the tank. After the solids are mobilized, the pumps will continue to operate at a reduced flow rate producing lower velocity jets sufficient to maintain the particles in a uniform suspension (concentration uniformity). Several types of waste and tank configurations exist at Hanford. The jet mixer pump systems and operating conditions required to mobilize sludge and maintain slurry uniformity will be a function of the waste type and tank configuration. The focus of this work was to conduct a 1/12-scale experiment to develop an analytical model to relate slurry uniformity to tank and mixer pump configurations, operating conditions, and sludge properties. This experimental study evaluated concentration uniformity in a 1/12-scale experiment varying the Reynolds number (Re), Froude number (Fr), and gravitational settling parameter (Gs) space. Simulant physical properties were chosen to obtain the required Re and Gs where Re and Gs were varied by adjusting the kinematic viscosity and mean particle diameter, respectively. Test conditions were achieved by scaling the jet nozzle exit velocity in a 75-in. diameter tank using a mock-up of a centrally located dual-opposed jet mixer pump located just above the tank floor. Concentration measurements at sampling locations throughout the tank were used to assess the degree of uniformity achieved during each test. Concentration data was obtained using a real time in-situ ultrasonic attenuation probe and post-test analysis of discrete batch samples. The undissolved solids concentration at these locations was analyzed to determine whether the tank contents were uniform (≤ ±10% variation about mean) or nonuniform (> ±10% variation about mean) in concentration. Concentration inhomogeneity was modeled as a function of dimensionless parameters. The parameters that best describe the maximum solids volume fraction that can be suspended were found to be 1) the Fr based on nozzle average discharge velocity and tank contents level and 2) the dimensionless particle size based on nozzle diameter. The dependence on the jet Re does not appear to be statistically significant.
