Initiatives collaboratives sur et avec les territoires - Vue de la métropole...Claudine Revol
Mobilité partagée, échanges locaux de biens et services, coworking, fablabs, participation
citoyenne, finances participatives, locales…. L’économie collaborative apparaît comme un levier d'innovation, de création de valeur économique, d’utilité sociale et de développement durable sur les territoires. Les pratiques et modèles collaboratifs sont un vaste sujet et la consommation collaborative prend une ampleur insoupçonnée. Mais qu'est-ce que pourrait m'apporter un territoire collaboratif ? Est-ce que je dois m’engager davantage dans cette économie ?
De nombreux aspects optimistes sont à approfondir pour répondre à ces questions :
→ Qu’est-ce qui caractérise une “ville collaborative”, et comment l’incarner sur un territoire ?
→ Comment identifier, encourager, mettre en visibilité les initiatives foisonnantes (portées par
startups, réseaux, citoyens, associations, particuliers, chercheurs, collectivités, labels...) et
comment développer la cocréation ?
→ Comment prioriser les actions et les projets en fonction des stratégies territoriales
existantes ?
→ Quelle posture pour l’acteur public local : facilitateur, bâtisseur ou contributeur ?
→ Comment mettre en place une culture collaborative dans les modes de travail de la
collectivité, pour faciliter les synergies entre les services, ainsi qu’avec les acteurs et les citoyens du territoire ?

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Water scarcity is the lack of fresh water resources to meet the standard water demand. There are two type of water scarcity. One is physical. The other is economic water scarcity.

This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

3. Surface representation in ArcGIS
A 3D Surface model is a digital representation of features, either
real or hypothetical, in three-dimensional space.
They are usually derived, or calculated, using specially designed
algorithms that sample point, line, or polygon data and convert it
into a digital 3D surface.
ArcGIS can create and store three types of surface models: TIN,
Raster, and Terrain dataset.
4. Contd…
With ArcGIS, there are two approaches for managing your surface
data: geodatabase or file-based.
Choice of the surface is partially your choice but is also limited by
the surface type.
Geodatabases are collections of spatial data native to ArcGIS that
collate several features or raster datasets all in one place.
File-based formats can be ESRI specific (TIN, GRID), open-source and
standardized exchange formats (TIFF, JPEG), or third-party formats
(IMG, PIX).
5. Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN)
TINs are a form of vector-based digital geographic data constructed by
triangulating a set of vertices (points).
ArcGIS supports the Delaunay triangulation method.
Delaunay triangle criterion ensures that no vertex lies within the
interior of any of the circumcircles of the triangles in the network.
If Delaunay criterion is satisfied everywhere, the minimum interior
angle of all triangles is maximized.
TINs cannot be stored in any of the three types of geodatabases; they
can only be stored in file-based storage solutions.
6. Raster Surfaces
Raster surface data represents a surface as a grid of equally sized cells
that contain the attribute values for representing the z-value and the
x,y location coordinates.
Each cell represents a defined square area on the earth's surface and
holds a value that is static across the entire cell.
Elevation models are one such example of raster surface models.
The fixed point may be a spot height derived from
photogrammetric methods, but interpolation between heights
help form the digital elevation model (DEM).
7. Terrain Surfaces
Terrain datasets are an efficient way to manage large point-based data
in a geodatabase and produce high-quality, accurate surfaces on the
fly.
A terrain dataset in the geodatabase It doesn't actually store a surface
as a raster or TIN. Rather, it references the original feature classes.
This organization involves the creation of terrain "pyramids" that are
used to quickly retrieve only the data necessary to construct a surface.
Can be stored in a personal, file, or multiuser geodatabase.
8. Comparison between Surfaces
TIN models are less widely available than raster surface models and
tend to be more time consuming to build and process.
The cost of obtaining good source data can be high, and processing
TINs tends to be less efficient than processing raster data because of
the complex data structure.
TINs are typically used for high-precision modeling of smaller areas,
such as in engineering applications, where they are useful because
they allow calculations of plan metric area, surface area, and volume.
Terrain datasets and related tools offer benefits in the areas of data
management, analysis, and visualization in case of voluminous data .
9. Analyzing Surfaces
Surface analysis involves several kinds of processing, including
extracting new surfaces from existing surfaces, reclassifying
surfaces, and combining surfaces.
Most common Terrain analysis tools: Slope, Aspect, Hillshade,
and Curvature tools.
10. Slope ,Aspect, Hillshade and Curvature
The Slope tool calculates the maximum
rate of change from a cell to its
neighbors, which is typically used to
indicate the steepness of terrain.
The Aspect tool calculates the direction
in which the plane fitted to the slope
faces for each cell.
11. Hillshade shows the intensity of lighting
on a surface given a light source at a
particular location
It can model which parts of a
surface would be shadowed by
other parts.
Curvature (the second derivative of the
surface) calculates the slope of the slope
and finds out whether a given part of a
surface is convex or concave.
Convex parts of surfaces, like ridges,
are generally exposed and drain to
other areas.
Concave parts of surfaces, like
channels, are generally more
sheltered and accept drainage from
other areas.
12. Topographical Maps
Type of maps in which the configuration of the terrain along with
the horizontal position of the natural and artificial features above
the given terrain is represented.
Topographic maps are also commonly called contour maps or
topo maps.
The various features shown on the map are represented by
conventional signs or symbols. For example, colors can be used to
indicate a classification of roads.
13. Contouring
General definition:
A Contour line (also isoline, isopleth, or isarithm) of a
function of two variables is a curve along which the function
has a constant value.
It is a cross-section of the three-dimensional graph of the
function f(x, y) parallel to the x, y plane.
In Surveying and mapping , Contours are the imaginary lines that
connects the points of equal elevation.
Contour interval of a contour map is the difference in elevation
between successive contour lines.
Types: Index and Intermediate Contours
Usually every fifth contour line is shown in a heavy, wider line,
so called an index contour
14. Characteristics of Contours
The contour are closed curves.
Contour line do not cross to each other.
Important points can be further defined by including a “spot”
elevation.
Contour line cross valley lines at right angles.
Contour line cross ridge line at right angle. The contour line form
U shaped curve.
Ridge contours can be confused with valley contours as they, too, form
'U' shapes - the difference is that the closed end of the 'U' points to
lower ground.
Depression and hill look the same.
And Many more…
