This new species is dedicated to our entomologist colleague and friend Philippe Déliot, who died recently. Distribution and ecology. The new species is only known from a single cave located in the central part of the Pyrenean chain, south of Esparros. The total length of the cave of Artigaléou is more than one kilometer, with two levels of chalk-stoned fossil galleries before reaching the subterranean river. Specimens of B. delioti were found only in traps placed near the river. Apparently, the species does not occur in the deeper parts of the cave, and it seems likely that the specimens found were carried from deep soil by water together with Speonomus bastideus Coiffait, 1950 a and the species of Trechini mentioned below. Hypogean fauna of the Baronnies has never been studied in detail, and there are scarce faunistic data from only three other caves (Jeannel 1928, Coiffait 1950 a). To better characterize the ecology of Baronniesia it would be necessary to investigate other localities where it could live, probably as an MSS or endogean species together with Geotrechus discontignyi, a typical endogeous ground beetle also found near the traps. Biogeographical notes. In the area where B. delioti was discovered, the only other known Leptodirini are the species of the speluncarum group of the genus Speonomus, distributed between the Lez valley (Ariège) and the western Pyrenees, where they have also colonized the southern range in Navarra until the Echo valley (Huesca, Spain). Baronniesia delioti is sympatric with Speonomus bastideus (speluncarum group) and three species of Trechini: Hydraphaenops elegans Gaudin, 1945, Cerbaphaenops aff. aeacus Saulcy, 1864 and Geotrechus discontignyi canteti Cabidoche, 1967. The subterranean river of Artigaléou-Arodets is the third known locality of Speonomus bastideus, which was so far only known from the caves of Labastide and Diable Rouge, both in Banios, Hautes-Pyrénées. It may be expected that the two main unrelated groups of cave Coleoptera (Leptodirini and Trechini) living in the same geographical area show some similarities in their patterns of distribution and colonization of the subterranean environment. Both live in the same underground ecosystem, characterized by strict and constant features, and share the area affected by the same climatic conditions and a particular paleogeographic history. The pattern of distribution of the Pyrenean Trechini is presented in Fig. 18. The species of the subgenus Aphaenops Bonvouloir, 1862 have radiated in the western part of the Pyrenean chain, and their diversity increases from Lourdes to the west, the majority of them (including the endogean Geaphaenops Cabidoche, 1965) diversified between Lourdes and Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port (Faille 2006). The eastern-most French species of the subgenus Aphaenops is A. leschenaulti Bonvouloir, 1862, known from the caves around Bagnères-de-Bigorre. On the contrary, the species of the subgenus Cerbaphaenops Coiffait, 1962 have radiated in the eastern part of the Pyrenees between Ariège valley and Bigorre area, and their diversity decreases from east to west (Faille 2006). The surrounding area of Bagnères-de-Bigorre is the contact area between the two main radiations of subterranean cave Trechini, Aphaenops in the narrow sense in the west and Cerbaphaenops in the central-eastern Pyrenees. In this area, the two lineages are represented by A. (Cerbaphaenops) crypticola ssp. aeacus Saulcy, 1864 and A. (Aphaenops) leschenaulti Saulcy, 1864, both sympatric in the cavities around Bagnères-de-Bigorre, in particular the Castelmouly and Tuco caves (Jeannel 1928). While the species of the subgenus Aphaenops on the northern slope of the range do not reach the area east of Bagnères-de-Bigorre, on the southern slope some species of this subgenus are distributed further east, till the Ribagorçana valley, where A. catalonicus Escolà & Canció, 1983 is present. The pattern of diversification of the Pyrenean Leptodirini is quite similar, although with some differences (Fig. 19). The species of Speonomus of the speluncarum group are distributed from the western Pyrenees to the Aure valley (Sarrancolin, Lortet) and the Labastide area (Artigaléou, Labastide cave). Members of the speluncarum group are found again in Ariège, with S. orgibetensis Gers, 1989 (speluncarum group sensu Gers, 1989: Fig. 1 D), the two species of the ehlersi group, S. ehlersi Abeille de Perrin, 1872 and S. opisthonoxus Gers & Dupuis, 1988 (Gers & Dupuis 1988: Fig. 3 C), and the subgenus Machaeroscelis. The distribution area of the speluncarum group and related Leptodirini are thus extended to the east. The presence of other genera apparently related to the speluncarum group (Ceretophyes, Parvospeonomus, Perriniella, and Troglophyes) in the eastern part of the Pyrenees is very remarkable. A revision of the north Pyrenean Leptodirini would be necessary to elucidate this biogeographical enigma. When Leptodirini are compared to troglobitic Trechini, the main difference in their distribution is that in Leptodirini the contact area of the two groups, the western one (Speonomus of speluncarum and ehlersi groups, Machaeroscelis, Bathysciella and Phacomorphus) and the central-eastern one (Paraspeonomus, Trocharanis and Speonomus of the pyreneus group) is extended to the east until Ariège. The area between Ariège and Bigorre seems to be an overlapping area of distribution for the Leptodirini of the Trocharanis type and those of the Speonomus of the speluncarum group. The lineage of the Antrocharis group of genera seems to have originated in this contact area, but we do not know whether from the western or the eastern group. The coincidence of the same contact area for the eastern and western Pyrenean groups of Leptodirini and Trechini suggests the same geologic and climatic causes.Published as part of Fresneda, Javier, Bourdeau, Charles & Faille, Arnaud, 2009, Baronniesia delioti gen. n. sp. n., a new subterranean Leptodirini from the French Pyrenees (Coleoptera: Leiodidae: Cholevinae), pp. 1-16 in Zootaxa 1993 on pages 8-13, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18559

Control Design Model for a Solar Tower Plant.
No full textAbstractThis paper deals with the development of a control design model for a 1MW Solar Tower equipped with a heat storage facility. This model is precise enough to achieve a good prediction of the responses but is also simple enough to avoid computational burden. The paper presents the assumptions and equations used for the different components of the plant. The behavior of the model developed in Matlab/Simulinktm is qualitatively validated by closed loop simulations. The control used for these simulations is also given. It consists of two levels, the upper level being an automaton whose outputs are the set points of the lower level controllers

In his article, R. Faille has chosen to sum up history of iconography concerning the siege of Cambrai by Louis XIV in 1677.
This study had nev ;r been made and the research it involved is yet more complete. He examined the memoirs from this period, expecially the unpublished writtings from the Count of Lisliers, he surveyed the works in which informations about the tapestry "feinte" of Versailles or the unwoven piece on the king's history ordered from Van der Meulen were kept. He carefully studied not only painting and drawing (identifying those from Sébastien Le Clerc in the Louvre) but also print and medals as well.
Thus, the author demonstrates that by focussing the study of a single point of Louis XIV's reign the glory of which artists where charged to convey to the following generations, a large and clear synthèse of art for the whole period could be achieved.Faille René.

Paléosismologie de la faille d'Aigion (golfe de Corinthe, Grèce)
No full textInternational audienceWe performed palaeoseismological investigations along the Aigion Fault, one of the main faults that bound the southern side of the Corinth Gulf. The mapped trace of the Aigion Fault onland is about 8 km long and may extend as much as 14 km if one includes its offshore trace. We made detailed studies at two sites adjacent to the Meganitas River. Although dating of faulted sediments was a bit problematic, we present a preliminary estimate of the faults short-term slip rate and recurrence interval. Slip rates range from 1.6 to 4.3 mm yr-1, with a maximum up to 6.3 mm yr-1. Three surface faulting events occurred in the seven centuries prior to 1888 AD, yielding an average (maximum) recurrence interval of 360 yr. © 2003 Académie des sciences. Published by Elsevier SAS.

La trace de la faille à terre mesure au moins 8 km, mais se prolonge peut-être jusqu'à 14 km en mer. On a étudié en détail deux sites situés de part et d'autre de la rivière Meganitas. Une première estimation du taux de déplacement et de l'âge des ruptures de surface a été possible. Les taux de déplacements verticaux varient entre 1,6 et 6,3 mm a−1. Trois paléoséismes ont eu lieu dans les derniers 700 ans, avec un intervalle de récurrence maximum de 360 ans
Utilisation du cosmonucléide Chlore-36 pour une étude paléosismologique sur la faille de la Magnola (Abruzzi, Apennins centraux)

L isotope cosmogenique 36Cl résulte de l interaction des particules cosmiques avec le calcium du calcaire. En déterminant sa concentration on peut retrouver l histoire sismique et la vitesse de la faille. Nous avons appliqué cette approche à la faille normale de la Magnola (Apennins), direction WNW, pendage SSW, 15-km de long. Un échantillon continu de 20cm de large et de 10 m de haut a été prélevé sur le miroir de faille. Les analyses chimiques ont été faites tout les 10cm. Les concentrations en chlore 36 et en chlore stable ont été déterminées par spectrométrie de masse par accélérateur. Le profil 36Cl versus hauteur de l escarpement révèle qu il y eu 5 séismes sur cette faille depuis 12000 ans, avec un glissement entre 1 et 3 m et une vitesse cumulée de 0,8mm/a. L âge du dernier séisme serait de ~ 5000 ans. Cette étude confirme que cet escarpement de faille est d âge post-glaciaire.AIX-MARSEILLE3-BU Sc.St Jérô (130552102) / SudocSudocFranceF
