Project summary.

ISIR (Institute of Intelligent Systems & Robotics) (former Laboratoire de Robotique de Paris,) of Paris 6 University studies neuro-cognitive human-space interaction in order to design and realize prototypes of intelligent systems, robotics and mechatronics systems, highly autonomous and/or able to assist healthy and handicapped (especially visually
impaired), in performing everyday life tasks.
In this thesis we intend to investigate different navigation strategies used by human and animal during the navigation in indoor and outdoor environments. A cognitive map built from extra- and intra pro pro prioceptives data seems to be a central and key element of such navigation (similar to this established during the SLAM by robots ?). This thesis

PhD Studentship, Laboratoirede Mathematiques Appliquees, UPPA, France

The aim of this phd is to develop a new approach for the discretization of realistic models for polymer flows. The theoretical part of the thesis will be accompanied by the development of a computational code for the numerical simulation of nonisothermal non-newtonian flows with nonlinear differential laws. This software will be based on the incompressible flow solvers and related tools developed at LMA. This thesis is part of an interdisciplinary collaboration.
