Les agents d’imagerie aux rayons X sont essentiels en combinaison avec la tomodensitométrie pour améliorer le contraste de manière à permettre la visualisation complète des vaisseaux sanguins et de fournir l'information structurelle et fonctionnelle de lésions permettant la détection d'une tumeur. Ces outils fondamentaux permettent également de faire la distinction entre les cellules et les agents pathogènes sains.

The fundamental properties of various automotive suspension systems are theoretically investigated on the basis of simple vehicle models subjected to realistic inputs chosen to represent road surfaces of different qualities. The vehicle response is evaluated through a performance index representing ride comfort, dynamic tyre load and suspension working space parameters, and interpreted in the light of these individual parameters together with the implications of the suspension design for attitude control and steering behaviour.

Clustering serves a vital role in the operation of Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) by continually grouping highly mobile vehicles into logical hierarchical structures. These moving clusters support Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) applications and message routing by establishing a more stable global topology. Clustering increases scalability of the VANET by eliminating broadcast storms caused by packet flooding and facilitate multi-channel operation. Clustering techniques are partitioned in research into two categories: active and passive. Active techniques rely on periodic beacon messag

Active and passive localization employing widely distributed sensors is a problem of interest in various fields. In active localization, such as in MIMO radar, transmitters emit signals that are reflected by the targets and collected by the receive sensors, whereas, in passive localization the sensors collect the signals emitted by the sources themselves. This dissertation studies optimization methods for high precision active and passive localization. In the case of active localization, multiple transmit elements illuminate the targets from different directions. The signals emitted by the tra

Despite the extensive research within the field of resource management in monostatic multifunction radar, the resource management techniques for a multifunction radar network are still in their infancy.

This is a gap which has been identified and is the aim of this thesis to explore.

Abstract:

This thesis investigates fibre Bragg grating (FBG) devices. Specifically, it consists of the developments and applications of two groups of devices: the optical phase en/decoders and the tunable fibre Bragg gratings based on an S-bending technique. The advantage of an S-bending tuning FBG is that its central wavelength is invariant as the linear strain gradient along the FBG is altered. Two new devices are developed by embedding a pair of FBGs in a single uniform beam for S-bending. One is the tunable dispersion compensator with a wide tuning range, and the other is a tunable pure dispersion s

Nowadays, numerous applications of active sound transmission control require lightweight partitions with high transmission loss over a broad frequency range and simple control strategies. In this work an active-passive sound transmission control approach is investigated that potentially addresses these requirements. The approach involves the use of lightweight stiff panels, or tiles, attached to a radiating base structure through active-passive soft mounts and covering the structure surface.

Abstract:

To add damping to structures, viscoelastic materials (VEM) are added to structures. In order to enhance the damping effect of the VEM, a constraining layer is attached, creating a passive constrained layer damping treatment (PCLD). When this constraining layer is an active element, the treatment is called active constrained layer damping (ACLD). Recently, the investigation of ACLD treatments has shown it to be an effective method of vibration suppression. In this work, two new hybrid configurations are introduced by separating the passive and active elements. In the first variation

Abstract:

La plasmonique hybride est un sujet d’actualité qui exploite des interactions physiques entre nano-objets métalliques et d’autres nanomatériaux. En bénéficiant des propriétés de chacun de leurs constituants, les nanostructures hybrides sont utilisées dans de nombreuses applications comme la détection d’espèces bio-chimiques. Dans cette thèse, nous présentons une nouvelle nanostructure hybride polymère/metal qui est non seulement utilisée comme nano-émetteur anisotrope qui s’avère aussi être un outil puissant de caractérisation du champ proche optique.La fabrication de cette nouvelle nanostruct
