Image segmentation based on community detection approach
Image segmentation is a fundamental low-level vision problem with a great potential when it comes to its applications. Several methods exist to split an image into regions. However, this problematic is still a relatively open topic for which various research works are regularly presented. With the recent developments in complex networks theory, methods based on […]

Investigation into current industrial practices relating to product lifecycle management in a multi-nationalmanufacturing company
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems have gained growing acceptance for managing all information relating to products throughout their full lifecycle, from idea conceptualisation through operations to servicing and disposal. This paper, through an in-depth exploratory study into a leading power generation manufacturing organization, presents current PLM issues experienced by manufacturing companies, exploring three separate topics: […]

Using avatars to tailor ideation process to innovation strategy
To face innovation challenges of the twenty-first century, companies should learn from proven successful strategies and draw on technological evolutions as well. Our proposal consists in aligning ideation to innovation strategies through the use of avatars in a virtual world. On the basis of the Persona method and the Proteus effect, we design avatars’ appearance […]

Avatar-mediated creativity: When embodying inventors makes engineers more creative
An important challenge today is to support creativity while enabling geographically distant people to work together. In line with the componential theory of creativity, self-perception theory and recent research on the Proteus Effect, we investigate how avatars, which are virtual representations of the self, may be a medium for stimulating creativity. For this purpose, we […]

Modelling and simulation of operation and maintenance strategy for offshore wind farms based on multi-agent system
Maintenance of offshore wind turbines is a complex and costly undertaking which acts as a barrier to the development of this source of energy. Factors such as the size of the turbines, the size of the wind farms, their distance from the coast and meteorological conditions make it difficult for the stakeholders to select the […]

Impact of spare parts remanufacturing on the operation and maintenance performance of offshore wind turbines: a multi-agent approach
Offshore wind farms are a growing source of energy, which aims to ensure a clean energy with a low environmental impact. In this context, this paper investigates opportunities of the turbine gearbox end of life-cycle to improve the operation and maintenance strategies. We determine the impact of spare part policy based on the remanufacturing of […]

One-step synthesis of Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 thin films by reactive magnetron co-sputtering
Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 (CZTS) is suitable to replace conventional materials as absorber layer in solar cell applications. CZTS is composed of earth abundant and non-toxic elements, and exhibits an optical bandgap of 1.5 eV and a high absorption coefficient in the visible range. CZTS thin films are usually synthesized by ‘‘two-step’’ processes consisting on […]
