Quel avion pour quelle mission? (FUN)

Vous êtes-vous déjà demandé pourquoi la compagnie aérienne avait affrété tel type d’avion plutôt que tel autre ?

En montant dans un avion, vous êtes-vous déjà demandé pourquoi la compagnie aérienne avait affrété tel type d’avion plutôt que tel autre ? Sachant qu’il existe aujourd’hui environ une centaine de types d’avions de transport, la question est en effet plus que légitime : un type d’avion donné, pour quel type de mission est-il fait ? Et a contrario, quel avion choisir pour effectuer un type de mission donné ?
Ce sont à ces questions que se propose en premier lieu de répondre le MOOC : Quel avion pour quelle Mission ?
Mais au-delà de ce questionnement initial, ce cours se propose de vous aider à appréhender le secteur du transport aérien dans toute sa richesse et sa complexité. Nous verrons ainsi que, s’il en est la face la plus visible, l’avion en tant que tel n’est qu’un élément, certes central, mais reste un élément seulement d’un vaste écosystème industriel et économique constitué de nombreux acteurs : avionneurs, aéroports et compagnies aériennes pour les plus visibles, mais également services de navigation aérienne, ou encore autorités de régulation…

Chemical reactions underpin the production of pretty much everything in our modern world. But, what is the driving force behind reactions? Why do some reactions occur over geological time scales whilst others are so fast that we need femtosecond-pulsed lasers to study them? Ultimately, what is going on at the atomic level? Discover the answers to such fundamental questions and more on this course in introductory physical chemistry.

Le recyclage n'est pas un luxe ou une mode mais une nécessité, qui provient d'une constatation fort simple : nous vivons dans un monde limité. Contrairement à ce que nous avons cru fort longtemps et surtout dans les "golden sixties", notre activité humaine n'est pas infiniment développable, car bornée par des limites en termes d'énergie, de ressources naturelles, d'espace ou simplement de capacité d'adaptation de la nature.

Quantitative Formal Modeling and Worst-Case Performance Analysis (Coursera)

Welcome to Quantitative Formal Modeling and Worst-Case Performance Analysis. In this course, you will learn about modeling and solving performance problems in a fashion popular in theoretical computer science, and generally train your abstract thinking skills. After finishing this course, you have learned to think about the behavior of systems in terms of token production and consumption, and you are able to formalize this thinking mathematically in terms of prefix orders and counting functions. You have learned about Petri-nets, about timing, and about scheduling of token consumption/production systems, and for the special class of Petri-nets known as single-rate dataflow graphs, you will know how to perform a worst-case analysis of basic performance metrics, like throughput, latency and buffering.

Although many would prefer to leave science in the past and no longer engage with it once completing compulsory science classes in school, the reality is that engaging with science is an integral part of our daily lives. Moreover, for the safety and wellness of human society, it is necessary to engage with scientific information. We are faced with the necessity of examining scientific evidence on topics ranging from conservation to public health and make decisions that impact not only our families but those around us.

Advanced Engineering Systems in Motion: Dynamics of Three Dimensional (3D) Motion (Coursera)

This course is an advanced study of bodies in motion as applied to engineering systems and structures. We will study the dynamics of rigid bodies in 3D motion. This will consist of both the kinematics and kinetics of motion. Kinematics deals with the geometrical aspects of motion describing position, velocity, and acceleration, all as a function of time. Kinetics is the study of forces acting on these bodies and how it affects their motion.
