La durabilité des services d'eau dans les grandes villes – EAU&3E
Stemming from the observation of the difficulties met by the water services providers, the EAU&3E project aims at helping them to establish an accurate diagnosis of their services' sustainability, but also to identify the possible evolutions – whether desirable or not –, the managerial choices to a
La consommation énergétique : de la résidence à la ville. Aspects sociaux, techniques et économiques – ENERGIHAB
This research is in a context where the necessity to improve the thermal performance of the buildings in France has appeared as a priority on the horizon 2020. It rests on the acknowledgement that most models offered about energy consumption negate the impact of domestic usages. It hence appears nec
Modélisation Intra-urbaine des Rythmes quOtidiens : accroître l'accessibilité à la ville pour maîtriser la mobilité urbaine – MIRO2
. . . . This project aims at interrogating the sustainable city by focusing on one of its very central components, daily mobility. Indeed, if towns can be interpreted as spatial organisations favouring social interactions, the number of daily movements needed to reach this goal is continuously incre
Chantiers furtifs urbains – FURET
The research conducted in the FURET project has produced a variety of results and products, which are delivered in various stages of completions. The central contribution of the project is a Decision Support Instrument prototype, coupled with, an operational approach, Référence du formulaire : ANR-F
PLAteformes numeriques INnovantes de Simulation Urbaines pour le Developpement Durable – PLAINSUDD
In the United States, the ISTEA law of 1991 and the TEA 21 law of 1998 obliged cities to take into account the links between town planning and transport in all infrastructure projects and transport policies. In brief, these two laws demanded that concern be given to the long-term effects on cities c
Aide à l'éco-conception des quartiers par l'analyse de cycle de vie – ACV Quartiers
Environmental awareness of local communities has led to develop sustainable urban projects, but without any precise definition of such concepts. Yet the importance of risks, from local to planetary levels, suggests a more rigorous management of these issues. In this context, life cycle assessment
Chaussée à Longévité Environnementale Adhérente et Nettoyante – CLEAN
Some motorways (highways inter-or peri-urban areas) are subject to such trafficking that downtime for maintenance is barely tolerable by users and residents. The objective is to develop a technological solution to ensure the same shelf life surfacing and pavement seating (thirty years), without main
Maîtrise durablE de la Fissuration des InfraSTructures en bétOn – MEFISTO
Lifetime management of civil works, from the design stage or during the service-life, is a major concern of public or private infrastructure owners. Evaluation and prediction of structures performance involves the control of concrete cracking. The National Project CEOS.fr (Design and evaluation of s
CONnaissances des FLux Urbains, EmpreiNTes environnementales et gouvernance durable – CONFLUENT
The project CONFLUENT is proposed by three partners - research laboratories - and a service provider (association 1901); it is part of axis 3.1 of the call 'control of urban environmental impacts'. It rests on the following statement: cities consume huge quantities of energy and material, directly w
Évaluation des impacts environnementaux d'un PDU et de leurs conséquences socio-économiques : développements méthodologiques et tests sur le PDU de Nantes Métropole – Eval-PDU
Mobility is at the heart of the stakes for urban sustainable development and transportation policies that are set up in cities increasingly incorporate environmental components. Urban mobility plans (PDU) are, in France, an essential tool of urban mobility policies. Their environmental features have
Evaluation des trames vertes urbaines et élaboration de référentiels : une infrastructure entre esthétique et écologie pour une nouvelle urbanité – TrameVerte
The role of nature in cities changes radically since few years, as well for the city-dweller who expects a better a quality of living environments as for the planner who has to take into account new orientations (eg. “Grenelle on the Environment”). One of the infrastructures recommended is the devel
