The Inria Sophia Antipolis Méditerranée center counts 37 research teams and 9 support departments. The center's staff (about 600 people including 400 Inria employees) is composed of scientists of different nationalities (250 foreigners of 50 nationalities), engineers, technicians and administrators. 1/3 of the staff are civil servants, the others are contractual. The majority of the research te...

Male and female Uca tangeri (the only Ž ddler crab species to inhabit Europe) construct mudballs from mud excavated from within their burrows. Individual males placed similar patterns of mudballs each low tide, suggesting that there is some degree of stereotypy. When mudballs were experimentally moved further from the burrow or closer to it, males only repositioned those that were moved closer,...

Observational evidence suggests that improving the diets of women of child-bearing age from disadvantaged backgrounds might be an important component of public health strategies aimed at reducing the burden of chronic disease in their offspring. The development of an intervention to improve the nutrition of young women needs to be informed by a systematic collation of evidence. Such a systemati...

Based on the technical characteristics of nuclear power turbine, differences between turbine and thermal are analyzed. premise safety combined with plants, feasible supervision mechanism conventional island daily management responsibilities studied. Extensive research collection related data, including specifications, operation procedures, maintenance etc., through analysis collation these cont...

A modification of the classic Dolph-Chebyshev low sidelobe array pattern design is introduced, which allows the adjustment of the mainlobe’s width relatively freely and independently from the sidelobe level. In order to illustrate the advantages of the tool provided by the new design method, its application to Uniform Linear Arrays (ULA’s) and Uniform Circular Arrays (UCA’s) is discussed. It is...

In this paper, the methods and their analysis for estimating the location of three dimension (3-D) single source buried in lossy medium are presented with uniform circular array (UCA). The mathematical model of the signal in the lossy medium is proposed. Using location information in the covariance matrix obtained by sensors’ output, the equations of the source location (azimuth angle, elevatio...
