Was the 2012 Nobel Prize in medicine awarded for a Kuhnian paradigm shift? An author co-citation analysis perspective
No full textStem cell research has been a fast growing, highly successful, and at the
same time highly controversial field in recent years. Using a highly optimized
author co-citation analysis methodology to study the intellectual structure
of this field over the time period 2004–2009, we find that the induced
pluripotent stem cell breakthrough that earned Shinya Yamanaka the 2012
Nobel Prize in Medicine did indeed quickly redefine its entire research field,
and thus might truly qualify as a “paradigm shift” in Kuhn’s sense
Territorial solar baking potential: A socio-technical analysis for planning the sustainable energy transition of the bakery world
No full textInternational audienceNowadays, for energy reasons bread consumption appears unsustainable in the long-term. Direct solar baking can be part of the solution, but tools allowing for the estimation of the social-technical potential of solar baking at the territorial scale are lacking. In this article a socio-technical solar bakery's workflow model and two socio-economic indicators were developed. Then, these numeric tools were used in the frame of a full solar production and soft mobility scenario in a small tropical island (Réunion, France). Results show that in the best sites solar baking can be performed at least once a week with a production up to 16 tons/year and ≈ 32,000 tCO 2 emissions per year could be saved.</div

Territorial solar baking potential: A socio-technical analysis for planning the sustainable energy transition of the bakery world
No full textIn the context of a global energy transition, heating remains a highly energy consuming process. One very virtuous and low economic cost solution for cooking is direct solar concentration oven. In this article, in order to estimate the solar baking potential of a territory, a socio-technical solar bakery's workflow model and two socioeconomic indicators were developed. From real incoming solar energy as input, the model takes into account the solar oven properties and baker's time management in order to calculate bakery's bread productivity. Then, this model was applied and indicators computed for a small tropical island (Réunion, France). Results show that substantial solar bread production areas match the island population density, and that the level of solar bread production can be viable, though requiring an adaptation of the bakery sector's organization to the solar production variability
