Aerial Wanderings and Mountain Territorialities: Geographical Reflections on Cross-Country Paragliding by Camille Girault

“…Moreover, the conflict between the sport’s recreational and contemplative dimensions and its performance and competitive dimensions, combined with the intangible factors (air conditions, rules governing airspace) that constrain pilots’ liberty of movement, mean that paragliding is not quite as synonymous with freedom as one might think. Finally, the way in which pilots appropriate the areas over which they fly results in cross-country paragliding producing its own territorialities. …”

En attendant Bouteflika. Le président et la crise de sens en Algérie by Thomas Serres

“…This restoration of order was also linked to political paralysis, the dynamics of which would have been both institutional and fortuitous in so far as they linked to the head of state’s illness. Finally, if the President helped the ruling coalition to remain in place for an extended period, he did not resolve the epistemological issues: rather than restore credible political authority and political meaning, he has come to incarnate the misappropriation of historical legitimacy and the survival of a demented and grotesque order.…”

Mathematical modelling of cardiac pulse wave reflections due to arterial irregularities by Alexandre Cornet

“…In the case of two stenoses in series, local extrema are observed in the reflected pressure waveform which appears to be a characteristic of stenoses in series along an individual artery. Finally, we model a progressive change in stiffness in the vessel's wall and observe that the less the gradient stiffness is important, the weaker is the reflected wave.…”

Electricity meter area identification technology based on channel coding theory by Yinghai XIE, Yu ZHANG

“…Station area identification has always been a problem in the ubiquitous power Internet of things, a new analytical model similar to fading channel was established for the station area identification, and based on the remote on-load voltage regulation function of on-load capacity and voltage regulation distribution transformer, the channel coding theory was applied to solve the problem.In order to identify station area of the smart meters, different special voltage regulation schemes with the properties of repeated coding and block coding were applied synchronously.At the same time, the power consumption information acquisition system was used to collect the voltage of each smart meter in this period.Finally, the recognition of each meter was realized based on the principle of minimum distance of decoding algorithm.The theoretical analysis and test results show that, compared with the traditional technology, the new technology can realize the high accuracy identification of a large number of meters in the on-load capacity and voltage regulation distribution transformer area in the existing power grid system without upgrading, which has high engineering application value.…”
