Bilan financier de l'automatisation intégrale des transports collectifs urbains

Yang, Tzu-Pao 07 November 1996 (has links) (PDF)
L'objet de ce mémoire est d'étudier le bilan financier de l'automatisation intégrale, en essayant d'évaluer les investissements, les coûts et les avantages d'exploitation des lignes de transport collectif urbain à conduite automatique intégrale (le type du VAL de Lille), et en les comparant à des lignes à conduite manuelle avec un seul agent à bord, et avec une installation de pilotage automatique classique du type du Métro de Paris. Le travail se situe dans la continuité d'une étude de l'INRETS de 1986 et a pour objet d'élargir son champ en essayant d'établir trois types de bilans comparatifs entre lignes à conduite automatique intégrale et lignes à conduite manuelle : - un premier bilan B1 porte sur des lignes identiques sur le plan des infrastructures et du matériel roulant ; - un deuxième bilan B2 s'attache à la comparaison d'une ligne automatique à grande fréquence de type VAL, et d'une ligne à conduite manuelle avec des rames de même gabarit, mais de longueur double de celle des rames de Lille et une fréquence divisée par deux ; - un troisième bilan B3 compare une ligne automatique à grande fréquence de type VAL avec une autre ligne à conduite manuelle de fréquence nettement inférieure, équipée des matériels roulants de plus grand gabarit. Ces trois bilans sont établis à partir d'une comparaison des coûts d'infrastructure, des coûts des systèmes de conduite, des coûts de matériel roulant, des coûts d'exploitation, des coûts financiers du projet dus au temps d'essai et d'intégration et de l'impact de la fréquence sur la clientèle. Les résultats et leurs variations en fonction des différents facteurs contribuant à ces bilans sont donc examinés. Selon cette étude, les facteurs ayant l'influence la plus forte sur ces bilans sont les coûts d'infrastructure, les coûts des automatismes, les coûts de personnel, le coût des délais liés aux essais et à l'intégration du système et les surplus de recettes liés à l'attractivité exercée sur la clientèle par la qualité de service élevée apportée par les systèmes à conduite automatique intégrale. Les bilans sont plus favorables pour les lignes équipées de rames courtes et de petit gabarit, avec une fréquence élevée, qui demandent des stations courtes, un parc de véhicules important, et un nombre élevé de conducteurs.

Satire of Counsel, Counsel of Satire: Representing Advisory Relations in Later Medieval Literature

Newman, Jonathan M. 20 January 2009 (has links)
Satire and counsel recur together in the secular literature of the High and Late Middle Ages. I analyze their collocation in Latin, Old Occitan, and Middle English texts from the twelfth to the fifteenth century in works by Walter Map, Alan of Lille, John of Salisbury, Daniel of Beccles, John Gower, William of Poitiers, Thomas Hoccleve, and John Skelton. As types of discourse, satire and counsel resemble each other in the way they reproduce scenarios of social interaction. Authors combine satire and counsel to reproduce these scenarios according to the protocols of real-life social interaction. Informed by linguistic pragmatics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics and cultural anthropology, I examine the relational rhetoric of these texts to uncover a sometimes complex and reflective ethical discourse on power which sometimes implicates itself in the practices it condemns. The dissertation draws throughout on sociolinguistic methods for examining verbal interaction between unequals, and assesses what this focus can contribute to recent scholarly debates on the interrelation of social and literary practices in the later Middle Ages. In the first chapter I introduce the concepts and methodologies that inform this dissertation through a detailed consideration of Distinction One of Walter Map’s De nugis curialium . While looking at how Walter Map combines discourses of satire and counsel to negotiate a new social role for the learned cleric at court, I advocate treating satire as a mode of expression more general than ‘literary’ genre and introduce the iii theories and methods that inform my treatment of literary texts as social interaction, considering also how these approaches can complement new historicist interpretation. Chapter two looks at how twelfth-century authors of didactic poetry appropriate relational discourses from school and household to claim the authoritative roles of teacher and father. In the third chapter, I focus on texts that depict relations between princes and courtiers, especially the Prologue of the Confessio Amantis which idealizes its author John Gower as an honest counselor and depicts King Richard II (in its first recension) as receptive to honest counsel. The fourth chapter turns to poets with the uncertain social identities of literate functionaries at court. Articulating their alienation and satirizing the ploys of courtiers—including even satire itself—Thomas Hoccleve in the Regement of Princes and John Skelton in The Bowge of Court undermine the satirist-counselor’s claim to authenticity. In concluding, I consider how this study revises understanding of the genre of satire in the Middle Ages and what such an approach might contribute to the study of Jean de Meun and Geoffrey Chaucer.

Bydlení v uvolněných objektech bývalých brněnských textilních továren / Housing in released buildings of former Brno´s textile factories

Sedláková, Anežka January 2010 (has links)
The doctoral thesis is concentrated on housing as selected manner to convert the released textile factories. In the first part was attention given to history which confirmed the high recovery factor of Brno´s industrial past to reuse. Next part was focused on analysis of the XXth century forms of collective housing, especially the loft housing, to characterize the perspective habitation in selected factories. Finally was the contemporary housing observed through three specific aspects to aim the conversion of Brno´s textile factories.
