The energy sector is undergoing unprecedented change. Twenty years ago, the main concern was having enough oil and gas, whereas today, political leaders are faced with the need to reduce the CO2 emissions produced by still-dominant fossil fuels, without being able to totally rely on renewable energies, which are intermittent and whose share in energy production remains low.
Geopolitics and Energy Transition 1 presents the technical aspects of energy and its main characteristics, and outlines the challenges of the energy transition, the conditions for the development of renewable energies and the geopolitical stakes of this transition. It also describes the various energy markets and the consequences of liberalization policies, not forgetting to analyze the structures of the different sectors, while pointing out the fundamental problems of supply security and ways of strengthening it. -

Twenty years ago, the main concern was having enough oil and gas, whereas today, political leaders are faced with the need to reduce the CO2 emissions produced by still-dominant fossil fuels, without being able to totally rely on renewable energies, which are intermittent and whose share in energy production remains low. Geopolitics and Energy Transition 2 examines the energy sector and the state of energy transition continent by continent. North America is rich in resources, while the situation is mixed in South America. Europe advocates transition but remains dependent on imported fossil fuels. The CIS has enormous resources at its disposal and uses them as political weapons. Access to energy is a priority for Africa. Asia is faced with growing energy needs and pollution, which should accelerate energy transition. The Middle East, a champion of hydrocarbons, is launching into solar energy.

Electromagnetic Waves 2 examines antennas in the field of radio waves. It analyzes the conditions of use and the parameters that are necessary in order to create an effective antenna. This book presents antennas' definitions, regulations and fundamental equations, and describes the various forms of antennas that can be used in radio: horns, waveguides, coaxial cables, printed and miniature antennas. It presents the characterization methods and the link budgets as well as the digital methods that make the fine calculation of radio antennas possible. Electromagnetic Waves 2 is a collaborative work, completed only with the invaluable contributions of Ibrahima Sakho, Hervé Sizun and JeanPierre Blot, not to mention the editor, Pierre-Noël Favennec. Aimed at students and engineers, this book provides essential theoretical support for the design and deployment of wireless radio and optical communication systems.

Electromagnetic Waves 1 examines Maxwell's equations and wave propagation. It presents the scientific bases necessary for any application using electromagnetic fields, and analyzes Maxwell's equations, their meaning and their resolution for various situations and material environments. These equations are essential for understanding electromagnetism and its derived fields, such as radioelectricity, photonics, geolocation, measurement, telecommunications, medical imaging and radio astronomy. This book also deals with the propagation of electromagnetic, radio and optical waves, and analyzes the complex factors that must be taken into account in order to understand the problems of propagation in a free and confined space. Electromagnetic Waves 1 is a collaborative work, completed only with the invaluable contributions of Ibrahima Sakho, Hervé Sizun and JeanPierre Blot, not to mention the editor, Pierre-Noël Favennec.

Le développement de nouveaux instruments financiers et la prise de conscience par les agents économiques des enjeux sont les deux évolutions majeures qui ont marqué la gestion des risques d'entreprise ces dernières années. Un double mouvement de financiarisation se produit dans cet environnement, celui des modes de transfert des risques et celui de la gouvernance. Dans ce contexte, le management des risques devient une source de création de valeur pour l'entreprise. Véritable panorama de ces évolutions et de leurs impacts sur la gestion des organisations, cet ouvrage présente successivement l'historique du management des risques d'entreprise, les processus mis en oeuvre, les outils utilisés et enfin le rôle des principales fonctions de l'entreprise et leur contribution à la création de valeur par la gestion des risques.
