IFPEN

In the framework of the PhD thesis of F.Bleuse, 'Optimal control and robustness for rechargeable hybrid vehicles'. The study is focused on the so-called parallel architecture, with both the thermal and electric engines able to move the vehicle. The main axis is to optimize the use of the thermal engine.

Safety Line

(a startup in aeronautics), research and transfer contract, optimization of fuel consumption for civil planes. A first part is devoted to the identification of the aerodynamic and thrust characteristics of the plane, using recorded flight data. A second part is optimizing the fuel consumption during the climb phase.
