    Instruments de Design Management

    Comment se développe un processus d'innovation guidé par le design (design driven) ? Existe-t-il des règles et des outils de design en mesure de booster l'innovation ? Comment se situe le design management par rapport aux disciplines qui traitent de l'innovation et de ses processus : le project management, le design stratégique, le métaprojet? Cet ouvrage veut répondre à toutes ces questions en cernant les frontières et les attributions du design management, dans une optique de gouvernance du processus d'innovation, et en définissant une variété de configurations de projets. Le grand nombre d'instruments pratiques proposés - ainsi que la méthode RACE (Recherche, Analyse, Conceptualisation, Exécution) permettant leur classification - fournit un guide utile pour comprendre et tracer des parcours d'innovation fondés sur les méthodologies et les principes du design thinking. La structuration de l'ouvrage en chapitres enrichis de synthèses, questions, activités de réflexion et cas réels favorise l'apprentissage des principaux concepts. De plus, un site web propose des corrigés d'exercices pour l'auto-apprentissage de l'étudiant, ainsi que des ressources pédagogiques complémentaires permettant à l'enseignant d'animer des séances de cours et de travaux dirigés. L'ouvrage s'adresse aux étudiants des cours de design et design stratégique des Écoles d'Architecture, de Design, ou des Beaux-Arts, ainsi qu'aux étudiants des cours de management de l'innovation à l'Université, en Écoles de Commerce et dans les Instituts d'Administration des Entreprises. Il est aussi destiné aux professionnels et aux managers souhaitant mieux appréhender les processus d'innovation guidés par le design

    Le drame des 'harragas' vu de près et de loin: Youssef Amine Elalamy rencontre Hafid Bouazza

    Harragas (those who burn) is the name given to the thousands of illegal immigrants from Africa who, since the 1990's, have attempted to cross the Mediterranean in search of a better life in Europe. Recently these shipwreck stories have led to the creation of a new literary genre, the harraga novel, which distinguishes itself by its innovative style and magic-realistic elements. I make a comparison between two texts in which the theme of the harragas is central. De Oversteek (The Crossing, 2005) is a short story written by Hafid Bouazza, a Dutch author of Moroccan descent. Les Clandestins (The illegal immigrants, 2000) was written by Youssef Amine Elalamy, a French-speaking Moroccan writer who lives and is published in Rabat. This essay examines the way in which both of these authors make use of magical and poetic symbolism to confer a political and/or historical, autobiographical character to their texts

    Numerical investigation of ALFRED under seismic scenario

    The European project ANSELMUS focuses on the safety of advanced Heavy Liquid Metal (HLM) cooled reactors, including ALFRED, developed by the FALCON consortium, The reactor's operation progresses through three power levels (100, 200, and 300 MWth), requiring significant preliminary R&D efforts. The first ANSELMUS WP includes a Phenomena Identification Ranking Table (PIRT) analysis on ALFRED to prioritize R&D activities starting with ALFRED's reference design, selecting accidental transients to enhance the understanding of critical quantities known as FoMs (Figure of Merits). Supporting numerical analyses are executed within the same project. This paper examines core compaction following a seismic scenario using a detailed nodalization developed with the RELAP5 system code

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    La qualità dei prodotti orticoli freschi: influenza dei fattori in pre-raccolta

    Consumer interest in the quality of vegetable products has increased in recent years. Regular consumption of vegetables has been linked to a reduction of some diseases, since vegetable is a source of an array of phytochemicals, which are appreciated for their benef icial heal th ef fects. Vegetable quality is a complex issue with different means depending to the target customer group. Quality has both a product- and a consumer-dependent dimension. From the first perspective, quality attributes are inherent in a product and can be objectively quantified, whereas a consumer orientation, which defines quality in terms of user satisfaction, is much less tangible and less quantifiable concept. This review will be focused only on product-oriented quality and objective criteria for its evaluation. Standard for quality assessment of fresh vegetables are established in Europe and North and Central America. However, they take into consideration mostly external quality attributes (e.g. size, shape, color, absence of defects and decay, critical concentrations of pesticides and nitrate), whereas very important internal quality attributes such as texture, flavor and healthpromot ing compounds are not considered. Environmental conditions, crop management and physiological factors may modify the vegetable quality. The purpose of this paper is to review the recent literature dealing with the main pre-harvest factors that can modify the quality of vegetables and, in particular, the physical properties, flavor, and health–related compounds. First of all, the importance of the genotype and grafted plants selection, the optimization of the environmental conditions and the advantages and disadvantages of protected environments in comparison to open field cultivation concerning product quality will be outlined. Then, the effects of the optimization of agricultural practices, in particular water quantity and quality, mineral nutrition and growing systems (e.g. soilless culture), will be discussed. The review highlighted that vegetable quality is a product of the interaction of genetic, climatic, and cultural factors. Finding the best combinations of those factors to maximize vegetable quality according consumer demand will be a challenge. The use of novel cultural practices and development of new genetic lines to enhance the quality of vegetables are the main directions that research should take in the near future. Integrated quality production and management must be considered as a global target to reach
