Un guide de bonnes pratiques managériales au secteur public marocain

Dans un contexte de concurrence au Cerner les concepts de ̎management public̎ n'en devient que plus nécessaire. En particulier, il importe de vérifier que le management public a bien des attributs propres par rapport au management «classique» ou général. Dans son livre portant sur le management public, Annie Bartoli le définit comme étant « L’ensemble des processus de finalisation, d’organisation, d’animation et de contrôle des organisations publiques, visant à développer leur performance générale et piloter leur évolution dans le respect de leur vocation ».Une vocation basée sur la production d’un service public destiné aux citoyens, et sur l’intérêt général de la société.  Elle ajoute aussi que le management public s’appuie sur un principe général du management qui est celui de la contingence : en d’autres termes, il suppose une adaptation des méthodes de gestion à la diversité des situations et des enjeux. Plusieurs niveaux peuvent traduire ce champ, Le niveau « micro » qui s’intéresse aux interactions entre les acteurs et les systèmes, selon un regard de psychosociologie .Le niveau « méso » qui touche aux processus de fonctionnement des unités publiques, dans une optique gestionnaire.L’objectif dans ce papier est de présenter un état de lieu sur le management public et un guide de pratiques managériales qui sont innovantes dans ce sens

Optimal Load Restoration in Active Distribution Networks Complying with Starting Transients of Induction Motors

Large horsepower induction motors play a critical role as industrial drives in production facilities. The operational safety of distribution networks during the starting transients of these motor loads is a critical concern for the operators. In this paper, an analytical and convex optimization model is derived representing the starting transients of the induction motor in a semi-static fashion. This model is used to find the optimal energization sequence of different loads (static and motor loads) following an outage in a distribution network. The optimization problem includes the optimal control of the converter-based DGs and autotransformers that are used for the induction motor starting. These models together with the semi-static model of the induction motor are integrated into a relaxed power flow formulation resulting in a Mixed-Integer Second Order Cone Programming (SOCP) problem. This formulation represents the transient operational limits that are imposed by different protection devices both in the motor side and network side. The functionality of the proposed optimization problem is evaluated in the case of a large-scale test study and under different simulation scenarios. The feasibility and accuracy of the optimization results are validated using I) off-line time-domain simulations, and II) a Power Hardware-In-the-Loop experiment

Stuctural And Magnetic Characterization Of CoxZn1-x/Cu Multilayers Obtained by Electrodeposition

We present the experimental results of (CoxZn1-x/Cu)n multilayers (3<x<10) grown using the electrochemical dual bath method. The X-ray diffraction patterns have shown that the CoZn structural lattice parameters are close to those of the monoclinic CoZn13 compound. We have developed an analytical model in the X-ray kinematical theory adapted to the electrodeposited (CoxZn1-x/Cu) multilayers. We have shown that the model can give interesting structural information about the multilayer components, and reproduces the position of the satellite peaks around the main diffraction peak. Thus we have deduced the multilayer period and performed comparison between experimental results and the analytical model. The magnetic properties at room temperature reveal both superparamagnetic and ferromagnetic features. The inclusion of Zn into the magnetic layer and the existence of CoZnCu based alloy at the interfacial regions explain the magnetic properties. The magnetoresistance (MR) loop displays a broad , rounded maximum and the saturation is not observed even at high applied fields. The MR(H) behaviour and its small ratio can be attributed to interfacial effects.We present the experimental results of (CoxZn1-x/Cu)n multilayers (3<x<10) grown using the electrochemical dual bath method.

Tilt order parameters, polarity and inversion phenomena in smectic liquid crystals

The order parameters for the phenomenological description of the smectic-{\it A} to smectic-{\it C} phase transition are formulated on the basis of molecular symmetry and structure. It is shown that, unless the long molecular axis is an axis of two-fold or higher rotational symmetry, the ordering of the molecules in the smectic-{\it C} phase gives rise to more than one tilt order parameter and to one or more polar order parameters. The latter describe the indigenous polarity of the smectic-{\it C} phase, which is not related to molecular chirality but underlies the appearance of spontaneous polarisation in chiral smectics. A phenomenological theory of the phase transition is formulated by means of a Landau expansion in two tilt order parameters (primary and secondary) and an indigenous polarity order parameter. The coupling among these order parameters determines the possibility of sign inversions in the temperature dependence of the spontaneous polarisation and of the helical pitch observed experimentally for some chiral smectic-{\it $C^{\ast}$} materials. The molecular interpretation of the inversion phenomena is examined in the light of the new formulation.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figures, RevTe

Diagnostic et traitement de la Maladie du charbon à localisation palpébrale: à propos d’un cas et revue de littérature

L´anthrax est une zoonose causée par le Bacillus anthracis. les humains contractent généralement cette maladie dans des régions endémiques, par contact direct avec des animaux infectés ou avec leurs produits contaminés. Les localisations palpébrales sont rares dans la pratique clinique et posent des problèmes de diagnostic différentiel. Les auteurs rapportent l'observation d'un patient admis dans un tableau de cellulite préseptale, avec escarre noirâtre étendue de la paupière supérieure et oedème extensif de l´hémiface, faisant suspecter une localisation palpébrale de la maladie du charbon. L'examen bactériologique a permis de confirmer le diagnostic. Le patient a bénéficié d´une antibiothérapie à base de pénicilline G avec une bonne évolution.Key words: Maladie du charbon, oeil, oedème, blépharoplasti

Service Restoration in DG-Integrated Distribution Networks Using an Exact Convex OPF Model

The ever-increasing requirements for reliability and quality of supply suggest to enable the self-healing features of modern distribution networks. Within the context of Active Distribution Networks (ADNs), new, fast and efficient restoration strategies can be developed relying not only on switching devices to realize load transfer operation, but also on the contribution of Distributed Generators (DGs) while controlling their set points. In this paper, a global optimization method is proposed for the restoration problem in a DG-integrated distribution network. The objective is to restore a maximum of loads with a minimum number of switching operations. In order to check the technical constraints of the resulting configuration (ex., line current and bus voltage constraints), a recently published method for exact convex formulation of the OPF problem is incorporated making the restoration problem robust particularly in the case of high nodal injections. The proposed restoration model is formulated as a mixed-integer second-order cone programming (MISOCP) problem. Two test cases are used to quantify the DG effects on the quality of the restoration strategy and to demonstrate the feasibility of the identified solution in cases where general relaxation methods for OPF problem leads to inexact solutions
