Résumé : International audience
The Taylor power law (or temporal fluctuation scaling), is a scaling relationship of the form σ ~ (P)λ where !! is the standard deviation and hPi the mean value of a sample of a time series has been observed for power output data sampled at 5 min and 1 s and from five wind farms and a single wind turbine, located at different places. Furthermore, an analogy with the turbulence field is performed, consequently allowing the establishment of a scaling relationship between the turbulent production IP and the mean value (P)

Résumé : International audience
The massive integration of sustainable energies into electrical grids (non-interconnectedor connected) is a major problem due to their stochastic character revealed by strongfluctuations at all scales. In this paper, the scaling behaviour or power law correlationsand the nature of scaling behaviour of sustainable resource data such as flow velocity,atmospheric wind speed, solar global solar radiation and sustainable energy such as,wind power output, are highlighted. For the first time, Fourier power spectral densitiesare estimated for each dataset. We show that the power spectrum densities obtained areclose to the 5/3 Kolmogorov spectrum. Furthermore, the multifractal and intermittentproperties of sustainable resource and energy data have been revealed by the concavityof the scaling exponent function. The proposed analysis frame allows a full descriptionof fluctuations of processes considered. A good knowledge of the dynamic of fluctua-tions is crucial to management of the integration of sustainable energies into a grid.

Résumé : International audience
Depuis quelques décennies, l'énergie éolienne connaît une croissance considérable. Cependant cette énergie est dépendante de la vitesse du vent variant en intensité sur des échelles de temps qui incluent l'année, la journée à quelques secondes. Il est donc fondamental de bien parvenir à comprendre et décrire le caractère non-linéaire et stochastique de ces fluctuations dans la production électrique issue des éoliennes. L'objectif de ce travail est de caract'eriser les fluctuations d'une série temporelle de production éolienne. Dans un premier temps, nous vérifions l'utilisation de la loi de Taylor, relation de puissance entre l'écart-type et la moyenne. Cette relation fut observée en écologie, en finance, dans les sciences du vivant et pour des données de traffic internet. De récents travaux fournissent des hypothèses d'explication quant à l'origine de cette loi cite{Agata2010,Kendall2011}. L'exposant alpha caractérise le type de dynamique du processus considéré et varie entre 1/2 et 1. Dans notre cas d'étude, l'estimation de l'exposant alpha est proche de 1. Quand alpha=1, les processus considérés sont à invariance d'échelle cite{eisler2008}. Pour mettre en évidence les propriétés d'invariance d'échelle de notre série temporelle, nous effectuons une analyse multifractale pour estimer la fonction exposant d' échelle l'aide des moments d'ordre $q$ de l'incrément temporel des données de production éolienne $Delta P=P(t+ au)-P(t)$, telle que $<(Delta P_ au)^q>simeq au^{zeta(q)}$ cite{Schertzer1997}. La fonction $zeta(q)$ est concave et non-linéaire: plus elle est concave, plus la série analysée sera intermittente. Nous montrons que la série temporelle de la production éolienne considérée est intermittente et possède des propriiétés multifractales. De plus le modèle de cascades aléatoires log-normal se révèle pertinent pour décrire ces fluctuations.

Résumé : From measurements obtained at high level frequency over a long period of time, we aim to determine the different characteristics of the flow situated in the IFREMER (French Research Institute for Exploration of the Sea) wave and current flume tank in Boulogne-Sur-Mer. This 2 data measured with a LDV (Laser Doppler Velocimetry) allows to get the characteristics of turbulence and the incident velocity fluctuations. The well-controlled conditions in the flume and the high sampling frequency of LDV system will give us a good estimate of the different flow characteristics such as dissipation, the Reynolds number, the injection scales, Taylor and Kolmogorov. The objective is to place the marine current turbine in this flow and then to study the influence of turbulence on the rotor of this turbine. The flow velocity is imposed and two different rates of turbulence are analysed.
A partir de données à haute fréquence acquises pendant une longue période de temps, on cherche à déterminer les différentes caractéristiques de l’écoulement généré au bassin d’essais à houle et courant d’IFREMER à Boulogne-Sur-Mer. Ces données mesurées avec un système LDV permettent de caractériser la turbulence et les fluctuations de la vitesse du courant incident. Les conditions contrôlées du bassin et les longues périodes d’acquisition du système LDV nous donneront une bonne estimation des différentes caractéristiques de l’écoulement tels que la dissipation, le nombre de Reynolds, les échelles d’injection, de Taylor et de Kolmogorov. Dans un deuxième temps nous étudions les effets de la turbulence de l’écoulement sur le comportement d’une hydrolienne tri-pale à axe horizontal.L’objectif est de placer la maquette d’hydrolienne dans cet écoulement et étudier l’influence de la turbulence sur le rotor de cette turbine. La vitesse de l’écoulement est imposée et deux taux de turbulence différents ont été étudiés.

Résumé : International audience
The correlation between the flow turbulence and the performances of a ma- rine current turbine is studied. First, the incoming flow encountered in the flume tank is characterized in the framework of fully developed turbulent cascades in the inertial range. The Reynolds number, the Kolmogorov dissipation scale and the integral scale, are estimated from flow measurements. The intermittency of the turbulence is characterized in the lognormal multifractal framework, and the influence of the turbulent flow on the turbine power is assessed. The rotor speed control unit characteristics used for the turbine regulation induces non-negligible effects on the turbine behavior under fluctuations loads. Even if the power spectrum does not reveal any scale invariance, a multiscale analysis allows us to show the correlations between the turbulence time se- ries and the power produced. The classical Mean Square Coherency function shows that for scales larger than 10 seconds, the upstream velocity and power have large correlations. In the framework of the Empirical Mode Decomposition method, such correlations are studied using the time-dependence intrinsic corre- lation analysis method. This method allows to zoom into time-frequency scales where the flow perturbations induced some modifications in power production

Résumé : International audience
The objectives are to study and model the aggregate wind power fluctuations dynamics in the multifractal framework. We present here the analysis of aggregate power output sampled at 1 Hz during three years. We decompose the data into several Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMF) using Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD). We use a new approach, arbitrary order Hilbert spectral analysis, a combination of EMD approach with Hilbert spectral analysis (or Hilbert Huang Transform) and the classical structure function analysis to extract the scaling exponents or multifractal spectrum $zeta(q)$: this function provides a full characterization of a process at all intensities and all scales. The application of both methods, i.e. structure function and arbitrary-order Hilbert spectral analyses, give similar results indicating that the aggregate power output from a wind farm, possesses intermittent and multifractal properties. In order to check this result, we generate stochastic simulations of a Multifractal Random Walk (MRW) using a log-normal stochastic equation. We show that the simulation results are fully compatible with the experimental results.

Résumé : International audience
There is growing efforts for the development of wind energy. Yet, as for other renewable resources, a basic characteristic of wind energy is to deliver intermittent power. In this paper, we consider this topic by analyzing data provided by the wind industry. We discuss first the spectral properties of the data and the corresponding power curve. We estimate the scaling behavior in the inertial scale of wind input and the power output. We also study the rotor revolution scaling fluctuations. Finally the wind/power transfer function is studied, together with the wind/rotation and rotation/power intermediary transfer functions.

Résumé : In this work, we present an analysis of one-year period measured wind speed in the atmospheric boundary layer from a wind energy production site. We employ a Hilbert-based methodology, namely arbitrary-order Hilbert spectral analysis to characterize the intermittent property of the wind speed in a joint amplitudefrequency space. The measured scaling exponents implies intermittent nature of the wind on mesoscales.

Résumé : International audience
We consider here wind speed time series and the aggregate output wind power from a wind farm. We study their scaling statistics in the framework of fully developed turbulence and Kolmogorov's theory. We estimate their Fourier power spectra and consider their scaling properties in the physical space. We show that the atmospheric wind speed and the aggregate power output from a wind farm are intermittent and multifractal over a wide range of scales. The coupling between simultaneous data of the wind speed and aggregate power output is investigated through a joint multifractal description using the generalized correlation functions (GCFs). This multiscaling test is compatible with a linear relation between the wind speed and the aggregate power output fluctuations for timescales T ⩾ 103 s ≃ 15 min

Résumé : International audience
A good knowledge of the intermittency of global solar radiation is crucial for selecting the location of a solar power plant and predicting the generation of electricity. This paper presents a multifractal analysis study of 367 daily global solar radiation sequences measured with a sampling rate of 1 Hz over one year at Guadeloupean Archipelago (French West Indies) located at 16 150N latitude and 60 300W longitude. The mean power spectrum computed follows a power law behavior close to the Kolmogorov spectrum. The intermittent and multifractal properties of global solar radiation data are investigated using several methods. Under this basis, a characterization for each day using three multifractal parameters is proposed.

Résumé : International audience
In this paper, we have presented a spectral and a multifractal analysis performed on 412 time series of wind speed data each of duration of 350 s and sampled at 20 Hz. The average spectrum for the wind speed displays a scaling behavior, in the inertial range, over two decades, with b ¼ 1:68 close to the Kolmogorov value À 5/3. A multifractal analysis has been motivated by the presence of scaling invariance in data set. Then we have considered their scaling properties in the framework of fully developed turbulence and multifractal cascades. The results obtained for wind speed confirm that the exponent scaling function z V ðqÞ is nonlinear and concave. This exponent characterizes the scaling functions in the inertial range indicating that the wind speed is intermittent and multifractal. Moreover the theoretical quadratic relation for lognormal multifractals is well fitted. We investigate the consequence for wind energy production: we generate stochastic simulations of a multifractal random walk, and using a power curve derived from experimental data, we generate the associated power time series. We show that, due to the saturation of the power curve for large speed values, when the input time series (turbulent wind speed) is multifractal, the output can be almost monofractal.

Résumé : International audience
Background: Mounier-Kuhn syndrome (MKS) is a rare disorder characterized by enlargement of the trachea and main bronchi and associated with recurrent respiratory tract infections. Objective: This multicenter, retrospective study was carried out to describe respiratory conditions associated with tracheobronchomegaly. Methods: Nine institutions involved in the ‘Groupe d'Endoscopie de Langue Française' (GELF) participated in this study. A standard form was used to record patient characteristics, treatments and follow-up from medical charts. Results: Seventeen patients, 53% male, aged 58 ± 18 years at diagnosis were included. Recurrent infections revealed MKS in 88% of cases. Main comorbid conditions were diffuse bronchiectasis in 88% of patients and tracheobronchomalacia in 67% of cases. The exacerbation rate was 1.5 exacerbations/patient/year. The main non-respiratory morbid condition was gastroesophageal reflux disease in 29% of cases. Interventional bronchoscopy was performed in seven patients (41%), consisting of laser (n = 2) and tracheal stenting (n = 5). Complications related to stents were observed in 80% of cases with a mean stent duration of 8 months. Four deaths, including three due to respiratory causes, occurred during follow-up. Conclusions: This is the largest series of MKS reported in the literature, showing that bronchiectasis and tracheobronchomalacia are the main associated morbid conditions that constitute a challenge for treatment.
