Research orientation 1_Mobility, the environment and energy
indicative of ageing in order to trigger predictive maintenance
operations on these systems. Generally, this involves monitoring
the electrical parameters which give an idea of the temperature
levels the chips reach.
The REMAPODE project, which was completed in 2011, aims
to achieve more integrated predictive reliability, which is an
important consideration from the economic and technical
points of view. Innovative investigations have been conducted
to ensure that the monitored electronic parameters provide
an accurate picture of mechanical stress levels. Piezoelectric
properties have been used in this context and applied in
an original manner to semiconductor traction power components.

The development
of electric transport
Under the scrutiny of socioeconomic analysis
The City, Mobility and Transport Laboratory (LVMT) at
Champs-sur-Marne on the Cité Descartes site is investigating
the socioeconomic conditions for the development
of electric vehicles (1) .
It has emerged from this research that the first step is
for a group of players to create a system, providing vehicles,
recharging terminals and parking spaces. The scenarios for
network development that are described in different countries
resemble one another: a phase of technological innovation, followed
by the conquest of niche markets (self-service, company
fleets), then the gradual increase in use as a private vehicle.
For a household, exchanging a conventional vehicle for an
electric vehicle involves an initial additional outlay which must
be compensated for by savings during use (cheaper energy):
for this it is necessary to make a considerable number of fairly
long trips (for example a commuting trip of about 30 km), but
these must not be too long because of range issues. When
other constraints are considered, for example leisure travel
and the type of housing stock (which affects the installation
of terminals) the potential for electric car use varies between
10% and 30% depending on the region of France.
(1) With several partners including Renault, EDF, Véolia and
in association with the Electric Vehicle GERI (VE).
Urban areas offer considerable potential for suitable vehicles
that are lighter, smaller and slower and offer less protection.
A bonus at the time of purchase will be necessary during the
expansion phase. The cost for the public finances will be part
of a series of tax effects and social accounts (industrial and
service sector jobs), whose impact will vary considerably depending
on the performance of the nation’s industry in the
context of international competition.
