Henry Bazin: Experimenter, Engineer, and Gentleman
(2023)One of the most distinguished experimenters in hydraulics of the 19th century was Henry Bazin. In addition, he was an outstanding civil engineer, and a real gentleman. He had a notable career within the French Corps des Ponts et Chaussées. This work provides insight into his life based on a large correspondence with his friend Joseph Boussinesq, papers written by hydraulicians mainly presented during the inauguration of his monument in ...Monograph -

State Space Control, LQR and Observer
(2010)State Space regulators are not as well known by many of the engineers, compared to PID. Either they are a little bit more complicated to understand, either a modeling of the system is needed to design a robust and stable feedback loop. However, there is a variety of systems, where a use of State Space regulators can be justified. Especially, if regulators of multiple in and multiple out systems need to be designed, a little bit more ...Monograph -
S(Zp,ZP): Post-structural readings of Gödel's proof
(2009)S(zp,zp) performs an innovative analysis of one of modern logic’s most celebrated cornerstones: the proof of Gödel’s first incompleteness theorem. The book applies the semiotic theories of French post-structuralists such as Julia Kristeva, Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze to shed new light on a fundamental question: how do mathematical signs produce meaning and make sense? S(zp,zp) analyses the text of the proof of Gödel’s result, and ...Monograph -
