Sommario/riassunto

La Grande Illusion de Jean Renoir compte parmi les films les plus étudiés de l'histoire du cinéma. On a pourtant méconnu un aspect essentiel de ce film qui emprunte à la culture visuelle de son auteur des œuvres de peinture aussi importantes que le retable d’Issenheim de Grünewald, le Polyptyque de saint Antoine de Piero della Francesca ou L’Annonciation de Léonard de Vinci. Ce matériel iconographique qui constitue la documentation raisonnée du musée imaginaire de Renoir est encore et surtout l’instrument d’une politique de l’art en temps de guerre qui rencontre les engagements de Georges Bataille, de Pablo Picasso et d’André Malraux. C’est à partir de quelques chefs-d’œuvre de la peinture occidentale que Renoir a choisi de s’interroger sur le destin de la civilisation, thème douloureusement polémique de l’entre-deux-guerres, ainsi que sur ses attaches chrétiennes qu’il rassemble sur la figure de la Vierge Marie. La Grande Illusion est « un film fantôme » disait Renoir à l’occasion de sa ressortie en 1946 : quelque soixante-dix ans plus tard ce film continue de hanter notre imaginaire cinématographique.  Jean Renoir’s Grand Illusion is one of the most studied films in the history of cinema.  However an often unrecognized but essential aspect of this film is the visual cultural heritage of the author which draws from such important painting works as the Issenheim Altarpiece by Grünewald, the Polyptych of St. Anthony by



Piero della Francesca or Leonardo de Vinci’s  Annunciation.This iconographic material is not only a rational documentation of works from Renoir’s imaginary museum, it is also and above all, an instrument of art policy in a time of war, which stands alongside the works of Georges Bataille, Pablo Picasso and André Malraux. However these masterpieces of Western painting were also for Renoir an opportunity to reflect not just on the fate of civilization, a painfully controversial theme during the period between the two World Wars, but also on their links…

Sommario/riassunto

Comprehensive resource exploring the basic principles of microbubbles including modeling and simulation, as well as applications across various industrial processes   Featuring in-depth case studies, Microbubbles delves into the science and engineering behind microbubbles, their unique properties, and the state-of-the-art



techniques being utilized to unlock their full potential, with insight into their various industrial applications, such as in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling, as well as statistical and numerical analyses of lab-scale and pilot-scale operations.   Written by a highly qualified author with significant research contributions to the field, this comprehensive resource discusses sample topics including:    * Fundamental concepts of mass transfer as well as reaction engineering and process design of microbubble-based systems  * Different types of microbubbles, including ozone, N2, air, and O2, and the scope of microbubble industrial scalability, with information on cost and energy estimation  * Intrinsic concepts of chemical and environmental engineering related to microbubbles and recent developments in the simulation of microbubble systems  * Latest breakthroughs in microbubble technology, encompassing their use in nanotechnology, pollution control and treatment, and environmental remediation  This book is an essential reference on the subject for researchers at the postgraduate, PhD, and postdoctoral levels, along with engineers and chemists working with water and wastewater treatment technology. Understanding the basics of mass transfer and solid operations is a prerequisite to reading.
