Au Québec, les écoles sont situées dans une région où l’aléa sismique est considéré modéré à élevé. La majorité de ces écoles ont été construites avant les années 70 et comportent de la maçonnerie non armée (MNA) qui est un matériau à ductilité faible. Au cours des séismes passés notamment celui du Saguenay en 1988, il semble que les structures comportant de la MNA constituent le type de structure le plus dangereux vis-à-vis du séisme. La performance sismique de ces écoles est alors mise en question d’autant plus que la plupart ont été construites avant l’introduction des normes parasismiques. Ce projet de recherche traite de la vulnérabilité sismique des écoles comportant de la MNA et s’inscrit à la suite d’un projet d’élaboration d’une procédure de classification des écoles dans l’Est du Canada. Il découle d’une initiative du Réseau Canadien pour la Recherche Parasismique (RCRP) qui vise des procédures d’analyse de ces bâtiments en vue d’un programme de réhabilitation d’écoles, lancé par le Ministère de l’Éducation, des Loisirs et du Sport (MELS). Une procédure à trois niveaux pour l’évaluation de la vulnérabilité sismique des bâtiments dans l’Est du Canada a été élaborée par différents chercheurs de l’Université de Sherbrooke, de l’École de Technologie Supérieure et de l’Université McGill [Nollet et al., 2012]. Partant des conclusions de cette étude et d’une revue de littérature, les efforts de la recherche développeront un niveau d’évaluation sismique complète des écoles types au Québec comportant de la MNA comme murs de remplissage. Les objectifs seront donc de proposer un modèle adéquat du comportement sismique de la MNA issue de la littérature, étudier l’influence de la non linéarité de la MNA sur la réponse dynamique de ces écoles ainsi que l’influence de l’irrégularité en plan sur la réponse dynamique de ces écoles. La démarche comprend le développement des modèles Opensees [Mazzoni et al., 2004] et la modélisation des écoles génériques sur le logiciel OpenSees (l’un des défi majeur du projet), la validation des modèles à partir de valeurs empirique et expérimentale et enfin les analyses modales et temporelles.

Le sujet principal de cette thèse est la distribution des nombres premiers dans les progressions arithmétiques, c'est-à-dire des nombres premiers de la forme $qn+a$, avec $a$ et $q$ des entiers fixés et $n=1,2,3,\dots$ La thèse porte aussi sur la comparaison de différentes suites arithmétiques par rapport à leur comportement dans les progressions arithmétiques. Elle est divisée en quatre chapitres et contient trois articles.
Le premier chapitre est une invitation à la théorie analytique des nombres, suivie d'une revue des outils qui seront utilisés plus tard. Cette introduction comporte aussi certains résultats de recherche, que nous avons cru bon d'inclure au fil du texte.
Le deuxième chapitre contient l'article \emph{Inequities in the Shanks-Rényi prime number
race: an asymptotic formula for the densities}, qui est le fruit de recherche conjointe avec le professeur Greg Martin. Le but de cet article est d'étudier un phénomène appelé le <

Information structure and Kabyle constructions Three sentence types in the Construction Grammar framework The study examines three Kabyle sentence types and their variants. These sentence types have been chosen because they code the same state of affairs but have different syntactic structures. The sentence types are Dislocated sentence, Cleft sentence, and Canonical sentence. I argue first that a proper description of these sentence types should include information structure and, second, that a description which takes into account information structure is possible in the Construction Grammar framework. The study thus constitutes a testing ground for Construction Grammar for its applicability to a less known language. It constitutes a testing ground notably because the differentiation between the three types of sentences cannot be done without information structure categories and, consequently, these categories must be integrated also in the grammatical description. The information structure analysis is based on the model outlined by Knud Lambrecht. In that model, information structure is considered as a component of sentence grammar that assures the pragmatically correct sentence forms. The work starts by an examination of the three sentence types and the analyses that have been done in André Martinet s functional grammar framework. This introduces the sentence types chosen as the object of study and discusses the difficulties related to their analysis. After a presentation of the state of the art, including earlier and more recent models, the principles and notions of Construction Grammar and of Lambrecht s model are introduced and explicated. The information structure analysis is presented in three chapters, each treating one of the three sentence types. The analyses are based on spoken language data and elicitation. Prosody is included in the study when a syntactic structure seems to code two different focus structures. In such cases, it is pertinent to investigate whether these are coded by prosody. The final chapter presents the constructions that have been established and the problems encountered in analysing them. It also discusses the impact of the study on the theories used and on the theory of syntax in general.

The activation area and activation enthalpy are determined as a function of stress and temperature for alpha titanium. The results indicated that plastic flow below about 700°K occurs by a single thermally activated mechanism. Activation area determined by differential-stress creep tests falls in the range 80−8b2 and does not systematically depend on the impurity content. The total activation enthalpy derived from the temperature and strain-rate dependence of flow stress is 1.15 eV. The experimental data support a lattice hardening mechanism as controlling the low-temperature deformation in alpha titanium.

Sibire foi o primeiro missionário do Reino de Loango, antigo estado africano, fundado provavelmente em 1485 pelo povo Vili. O reino de Loango tornou-se independente entre os séculos XVIl e XVIII, e em 1885 dividiu-se entre o Estado do Congo, Portugal e França . Sibire considerava-se grande amigo dos africanos. A obra ‘L'aristocratie negriere, ou, Réflexions philosophiques et hisloriques sur l'esclavage et l'affranchissemenl des noirs’ é composta de duas partes: a primeira traz a transcrição de um discurso proferido por Sibire na Assembleia Nacional africana; a segunda relata o conteúdo de uma carta dirigida aos colonos, negros, europeus, negociantes e agricultores. O tema dominante em toda a obra é o repúdio à escravidão e a defesa da liberdade do ser humano

Este é o tomo III da Coleção Voyages, relations et mémoires originaux pour servir a l'histoire de la découverte de l'Amerique, da editora Ternaux-Compans. Embora o prefácio do editor francês afirme ser esta a primeira versão francesa do famoso livro de Staden so o Brasil, J.C. Rodrigues fala de uma edição francesa em Amsterdã, de 1714, se, contudo, fornecer detalhes. Mesmo sendo esta a segunda tradução francesa, é também rara. Narra a odisséia vivida pelo autor durante nove meses como prisioneiro dos Tupinambás, fonte de consulta importante sobre o período inicial de nossa história. Staden descreve, além das experiências de seu cativeiro, suas viagens ao Brasil, desde os portos de origem. Preocupa-se em citar os nomes das pessoas, com quem lidou em diversas circunstâncias. é a primeira publicação sobre os índios brasileiros e, ainda hoje, na opinião de Borba de Moraes "constitui uma das mais valiosas fontes da etnologia em geral e da tupinologia especialmente".

As Voyages... são estudos completos, abrangendo todos os aspectos das regiões percorridas; servem de subsídio ao estudo das condições de vida no Brasil no século passado. "Fonte primordial de informações sobre os prédios coloniais do Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Santa Catarina e Goiás. Poucas obras no gênero atingem o valor de Saint-Hilarire. São clássicas e indispensáveis para o estudo do sul do Brasil, antes da Independência" segundo Borba de Moraes

This study mission on acadja, the traditional way of fishing in the lagoons of the South-East part of Benin, permits us to understand how well-established this fishing practice is, in terms of time and spatial extention. The exploitation of acadja has a great profitability but it also represents the source of some problems as deterioration of branches, deforestation and social conflits. However, when acadjas are rationally exploited, they constitute a hope for waters which are in the process of losing their biological richness.

Primary production rates in the Gulf the Guinea (east tropical Atlantic) were measured with in situ incubations. The extracellular organic carbon passed through 0.8 u pore size membrane filters averaged 29.5% of the carbon fixed by photosynthesis. These is a good linear correlation (r=0.86) between assimilation and organic excretion. The significance and limits of the method for the measurements of low rates of photosynthesis is discussed. The influence of ecological factors (nutrients, light and stability) cannot be demonstrated. The importance of bacterial regeneration processes by reutilization of algal extracellular products is assessed.

Cumacea were only observed in night plankton of the Côte d'Ivoire continental shelf. However they are not always observed and their occurrence seems to depend on the marine seasons. In September, December and April, the catches were very poor indeed, whereas May and June showed interesting results. Most of the species are rarely seen in the upper layer. Several activity rhythms could be shown for the most common species present in the hauls.

The minimum spanning tree algorithm is used to classify two sets of planktonic copepod samples. This algorithm links the samples the distance of which is minimum, without doing a loop, so that the sum of the segment lengths is minimum. The authors estimated the distance between samples by 2 different ways: by a coefficient of association the Jaccard's index - and by the x2 distance. Jaccard's index is not retained but the use of the x2 distance allows comparison with the 'analyse factorielle des correspondances'. The results are discussed from an ecological point of view.

A cruise of the R. V. Capricorne in May 1973, in inner part of the gulf of Guinea, allowed the authors to identify the main part of the Atlantic circulation at the longitude of 5 degrees E, between 4 degrees N and 4 degrees S. It gave new data on the termination of the equatorial undercurrent. At the equator, under the westward south equatorial current flows the Atlantic equatorial undercurrent with a maximum eastward velocity of 90 cm/sec at 30 m depth linked to a salinity maximum higher than 36.20 ppt. Below the equatorial undercurrent, about 80-100 m depth, flows a westward current with a velocity as high as 30 cm/sec. At 4 degrees S, the south equatorial countercurrent is well delineated by a high salinity core (more than 36.10 ppt) at 30 m depth with an eastward velocity core of 40 cm/sec. On the contrary, near 3 degrees 30N, a high salinity core (36.10 ppt) flows westwards with a speed of 40 cm/sec at 40 m depth: it is the "return flow" of the undercurrent (Hisard and Moliere 1974). At 4 degrees N the Guinea current carries eastwards surface salinities of 34.50 ppt at 40 cm/sec. Off Cape Lopez (0 degrees 35'S-8 degrees 42'E) the high salinity core of the undercurrent becomes wider near the shore. It is 25m wide offshore, and 70 m wide near the cape. A part of undercurrent water extends northwards, then flows westwards with the subsurface westward circulation in the inner part of the Gulf of Guinea. Another part flows south-southwestwards in a high salinity tongue along the African coast to 4 degrees S. South-west of Cape Lopez, the trades divergence contributes to an upwelling of cold and high salinity water; this water increases at the Cape Lopez front.
