Abstract

Pourquoi un nouvel ouvrage consacré à la Luxation Congénitale de la Hanche ? La recrudescence des cas diagnostiqués tardivement imposait que les principaux acteurs impliqués dans le dépistage apportent ici leur témoignage, Ce livre est la concrétisation des deux précédentes années qu'ils ont passées ensemble à échanger afin que ± s'infléchisse la courbe des échecs . Tout au long de ces 200 pages, pédiatres, médecins généralistes, échographistes et orthopédistes pédiatres présentent leur expérience avec une approche très didactique, s'appuyant sur une riche iconographie, avec même, cerise sur le gâteau, un film sur l'examen clinique du nouveau-né. Un juste rappel des ± bonnes pratiques qui paraissent avoir été oubliées ! De quoi satisfaire tous ceux qui sont ou seront un jour confrontés à ce véritable problème de santé publique.

Abstract

"C'est ma foi assez lourd à supporter, la solitude !" Cet énoncé illustre la construction syntaxique au coeur de cet ouvrage : la dislocation à droite. Le français est l'une des langues romanes qui comportent le plus de constructions de ce genre. Loin d'être le reflet d'une syntaxe désordonnée, la dislocation à droite traduit un choix syntaxique de la part des locuteurs qui l'exploitent comme une ressource à des fins interactives. Menée dans la perspective de la linguistique interactionnelle, cette recherche montre comment les locuteurs font intervenir cette structure dans leurs conversations ordinaires. Pourquoi la privilégient-ils par rapport au schéma SVO ? Qu'accomplissent-ils au moyen d'une telle construction ? L'originalité de cet ouvrage repose sur la richesse des données authentiques, ainsi que sur le cadre théorique convoqué, qui permet de revisiter un phénomène aussi massif que mal connu. En outre, l'étude revient sur certains concepts fondamentaux de la linguistique - le topic, la référence, la grammaire, etc. - qui sont reconsidérés à la lumière d'une approche foncièrement empiriste et interactionniste.

Abstract

In 1976, at the age of twenty-three, Farideh Goldin left Iran in search of her imagined America. She sought an escape from the suffocation she felt under the cultural rules of her country and the future her family had envisioned for her. While she settled uneasily into American life, the political unrest in Iran intensified and in February of 1979, Farideh’s family was forced to flee Iran on the last El-Al flights to Tel Aviv. They arrived in Israel as refugees, having left everything behind including the only home Farideh’s father had ever known.Baba, as Farideh called her father, was a well-respected son of the chief rabbi and dayan of the Jews of Shiraz. During his last visit to the United States in 2006, he handed Farideh his memoir that chronicled the years of his life after exile: the confiscation of his passport while he attempted to return to Iran for his belongings, the resulting years of loneliness as he struggled against a hostile bureaucracy to return to his wife and family in Israel, and the eventual loss of the poultry farm that had supported his family. Farideh translated her father’s memoir along with other documents she found in a briefcase after his death. Leaving Iran knits together her father’s story of dislocation and loss with her own experience as an Iranian Jew in a newly adopted home. As an intimate portrait of displacement and the construction of identity, as a story of family loyalty and cultural memory, Leaving Iran is an important addition to a growing body of Iranian–American narratives.

Abstract

This thesis is concerned with establishing a rigorous, modern theory of the stochastic and dissipative forces on crystal defects, which remain poorly understood despite their importance in any temperature dependent micro-structural process such as the ductile to brittle transition or irradiation damage. The author first uses novel molecular dynamics simulations to parameterise an efficient, stochastic and discrete dislocation model that allows access to experimental time and length scales. Simulated trajectories are in excellent agreement with experiment. The author also applies modern methods of multiscale analysis to extract novel bounds on the transport properties of these many body systems. Despite their successes in coarse graining, existing theories are found unable to explain stochastic defect dynamics. To resolve this, the author defines crystal defects through projection operators, without any recourse to elasticity. By rigorous dimensional reduction, explicit analytical forms are derived for the stochastic forces acting on crystal defects, allowing new quantitative insight into the role of thermal fluctuations in crystal plasticity.
