The main problem with Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) is the management of batteries. We suggest to replace the batteries by an energy storage ystem made of supercapacitors on a series HEV with two traction drive. A maximum Control Structure (MCS) of such a ...
We propose a new method to render high dynamic range images that models global and local adaptation of the human visual system. Our method is based on the center-surround Retinex model. The novelties of our method is first to use an adaptive surround, whos ...

This paper discusses the use of simple good sense in the spatial prediction of rainfall measurements in Switzerland. The method consists of a forecast based on the values of the available observations combined with topographic knowledge of the Swiss territ ...
The links between air pollution gas phase chem., aerosol chem. processes, and solar radiation are calcd. to improve air quality models. Air quality models are used to simulate pollutant content of the city plumes such as for Los Angeles. ...
We propose a new spectral prediction model as well as new approaches for modeling ink spreading which occurs when printing ink layer superpositions. The spectral prediction model enhances the classical Clapper-Yule model by taking into account the fact tha ...
The choice of a specific distribution for random parameters of discrete choice models is a critical issue in transportation analysis. Indeed, various pieces of research have demonstrated that an inappropriate choice of the distribution may lead to serious ...
The development of a hydrological forecasting model is conditioned by the available data collected in the entire hydrological catchment for which discharge has to be predicted. The forecast quality not only depends on the available historical data but also ...
A method to evaluate capacitance based on parameter extraction from finite- element analysis as well as a global model for a novel silicon microfabricated accelerometer are presented. Mechanical simulations have been performed and results are coupled with ...
For companies proposing a large offer of products and services, it is important to identify the products for which the forecast quality is critical. The objective of this paper is to propose a strategic analysis of the products in order to determine priori ...
