"Durant toute la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle, l'archipel des Seychelles a été découvert ou plutôt redécouvert, puis exploré par endroits et enfin un moment exploité pour ses richesses, avant que des colons français ne finissent par s'y installer. Les livres de bord de capitaines et les mémoires de fonctionnaires, de même que le courrier administratif de l'époque, disent combien cette épopée ne s'est pas faite sans conflit ni douleur. A travers les hésitations des administrateurs, l'avidité des affairistes et des négriers, les stratégies patrimoniales des colons et les souffrances des esclaves qui souvent se rebellent, c'est bien une société qui se construit, et au-delà une identité qui se forge, dans ces années où tout change, où tout donc est possible."--Page 4 of cover

"Social media analysis is playing an important and increasing role in advertising and academic research, but it also has significant potential to support military information operations by providing a window into the perspectives, thoughts, and communications of a wide range of relevant audiences. Although there are compelling national security reasons to field a social media analysis capability, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) must do so while navigating U.S. law and cultural norms and under conditions of great uncertainty. Existing legal and policy frameworks have not anticipated the rapid pace and global reach of modern communication networks, and questions of cost and implementation hinder the development of a robust social media analysis capability and the most fruitful applications for these analyses. To support DoD's assessment of the benefits, trade-offs, and implementation challenges that it will face as it expands its capacity for social media analysis, this report reviews the analytic approaches that will be most valuable for information operations, as well as legal, ethical, policy, technological, and training considerations. It also includes a set of recommendations to help DoD navigate this terrain while building a robust, effective social media analysis capability to support operations worldwide."--Publisher's description

The present study investigates the sustainable use of a ground coupled heat pump (GCHP). In order to assess the performance of this type of installation, a computer model composed by two parts has been developed. The Borehole Heat Exchanger (BHE) model is developed in COMSOL Multiphysics, based on numerical methods. Part of the results are fed to the heat pump energy model, developed in MATLAB. A real case study has been used to validate the model: the Faculty of Engineering of La Sapienza University in Latina, undertaking a renewal project for an abandoned part of the building. After the renovation, the building will host a research center on the topic of low-enthalpy geothermal systems. The analysis have demonstrated that the modelled GCHP system can supply a significant share of the energy required from the future research center. This amount of energy can be provided keeping almost stable the thermal balance of the surrounding region in the subsoil, operating in a sustainable way. The range of variation of the ground temperature with respect to the average value is within the limit of 5°C, which is the cap set by the international legislation.
