  • Publication number: 20170213926
    Abstract: A photovoltaic structure including an assembly of plural photovoltaic cells arranged side by side and electrically connected together, and an assembly encapsulating the plural photovoltaic cells. The encapsulating assembly and assembly of plural photovoltaic cells is situated between first and second layers, and a fixation layer situated between a circulable zone and a photovoltaic module, enabling adherence of the photovoltaic module to the circulable zone. The first layer includes at least one transparent polymer material and plural panels independent of each other, each panel situated facing at least one photovoltaic cell, to form a discontinuous front face of the photovoltaic module, and rigidity of the encapsulating assembly is defined by a Young's modulus of the encapsulation material greater than or equal to 75 MPa at ambient temperature and a thickness of the encapsulating assembly is between 0.4 and 1 mm.

  • Publication number: 20160161251
    Abstract: A method for characterizing k mechanical parameters of a pavement formed by a stack in a direction Z of N layers, including: a) applying a load to the pavement to deform the pavement; b) in response, measuring deformation of the pavement at various points with displacement sensors situated at each of the points; c) determining the k parameters on the basis of the measurements of the various sensors. The measuring b) is carried out by at least k sensors buried inside the pavement and distributed in at least two non-parallel directions X and Y perpendicular to the direction Z, and the c) determining of the k parameters is obtained on the basis of known boundary conditions on lateral edges of the pavement.
