Details: For several years, we have been witnessing an evolution in the profession of agricultural business managers, making their work more intense, difficult and complex. Living and Working Conditions Characterized by “Strong Physical Constraints, Large Working Hours, Significant Economic Pressure, Environmental and Climatic Constraints”, Without Forgetting “Significant Professional and Social Isolation” Suffered by a Good Number of Agricultural Farmers , Weaken them. In such a context, we are witnessing an increase in situations of unease and a loss of meaning in one's profession. This subject is today at the heart of debates. The Prime Minister, Jean Castex, in March 2020, requested a report on the unhappiness and suicide of farmers from MP Olivier Damaisin. The Report Highlights the Interest in Taking Humans into Account “The Human Side Really Needs to Be Put Back in Place”, “The Entire Human Side is Completely Absent”. It is important that the business manager takes pleasure in his activity and is fulfilled in order to be able to adapt his business to the various changes and sustain his activity. Adasea De La Marne, in partnership with Alice Martinet, Master's student in Occupational Psychology, carried out a study on "The Meaning of Work in Agriculture": 319 Farmers responded to the survey. 49% of farmers surveyed are in a fragile situation: 18% are identified as burn-out and 31% are at risk of burn-out. Thus, the elected officials of the Vivea Champagne-ardenne Committee have decided to launch a specific call for tenders falling within Priority 4 “Developing efficiency and quality of life at work” of Vivea's 2021-2026 Strategic Plan. The objective is to develop training that addresses the connection between efficiency and well-being at work while maintaining company performance.

The State Complexity And Combat Engagement Timelines For Notional Future Warfighting Scenarios Are Expected To Exceed The Cognitive Capacity And Response Times Of Human Operators To Effectively Manage The Electric Plant Via Existing Control System Schema In Support Of Executing Ship Missions. The Survivability Requirements For Military Ships Combined With The Higher Dynamic Power Characterisitics (pulse Load) Characteristics Of Some Mission Systems Will Require More Sophisticated Control Interfaces, Power Management Approaches, And Algorithms Than Are Commercially Available. The Navy Is Pursuing A Long Term Strategy To Create A Unified, Cyber Secure Architecture For Machinery Control Systems That Feature A Common, Reusable, Cyber Hardened Machinery Control Domain Specific Infrastructure Elements; A Mechanism For Transitioning New Technology From A Variety Of Sources In An Efficient And Consistent Manner; And A Mechanism To Provide Life Cycle Updates And Support In A Cost Effective And Timely Manner.tem Controls Will Be Expected To Maintain Awareness Of The Electric Plant Operating State (real Time Modeling); Interface With Ship Mission Planning (external To The Electric Plant Control Systems) For Energy Resource Prioritization, Planning, And Coordination Towards The Identification Of Resource Allocation States That Dynamically Optimize Mission Effectiveness; Identify And Select Optimal Trajectories To Achieving Those Optimal Resource Allocation States; And Actuate The Relevant Electric Plant Components To Move The Electric Plant State Along Those Optimized Trajectories Towards The Optimal Resource Allocation State. Tem Controls Would Enable Reduced Power And Energy System Resource Requirements For A Given Capability (or Improved Capability For A Given Set Of Resources); Increased Adaptability Of The Navy’s Power And Energy System Design To Keep Pace With An Evolving Threat Environment; And Maximized Abilities To Execute The Ship’s Mission. the Navy Is Interested In Potential Applications Of Distributed Control Architectures That Have Led To The Development Of Intelligent Agents That Have Some Autonomous Ability To Reason About System State And Enact Appropriate Control Policies. A Simple Example Of These Agents In A Control System Is The Use Of Autonomous Software Coupled With Smart Meters In A Smart Grid Implementation. The Agents, Smart Meters In This Example, Can Temporarily Shut Off Air Conditioning But Not The Refrigerator In Residences During Grid Peak Power Usage Times When The Cost Per Watt Is Highest On Hot Days. The Agent Software Acts Autonomously Within Its Authority To Comply With Programmed Customer Desires. The Navy Is Interested In Tem Controls Within A Modular Open Systems Architecture Framework Such That They Are Agnostic Of, But Affordably Customizable To, Specific Ship Platforms And Power System Architectures. Tem Controls May Reside Between (i.e. Interface With) Embedded Layers Within Individual Power System Components, Ships’ Supervisory Machinery Control Systems, And Ships’ Mission Planning Systems. Initial Or Further Development Or Modification Of These Interfaces May Be Required To Achieve Desired Performance Behaviors And Characteristics. Tem Controls Are Expected To Develop Within A Model-based System Engineering And Digital Engineering Environment And Will Be Initially Evaluated In A Purely Computational Environment, Representing Navy-developed Shipboard-representative Power And Energy System Architecture(s), But Will Be Progressively Evaluated On Systems With Increasing Levels Of Physical Instantiation (i.e., Controller-hardware-in-loop And Power-hardware-in-loop With Progressive Levels Of Representative Power System Components Physically Instantiated). When Implementing A Tem Based Control Scheme, The Overall Power System Should Increase Installed Power Generation Available To Mission And Auxiliary Loads; Reduce Power System Design Margins; Hone The Installed Stored Energy Required For Mission Critical Capability; And Allow Higher Power Transients (ramp Rates And Step Loads). Other Areas Of Interest To The Navy With Respect To Controls Include Improvements To Traditional Machinery Control And Automation, Advanced Power Management, Cyber Security, And Advanced Controls For Distributed Shared Energy Storage And Maintaining Electrical System Stability. The Navy Is Also Interested In Non-intrusive Load Monitoring, Power System Data Analytics, Real Time System Monitoring And Onboard Analysis And Diagnostics Capabilities. 4.3.8 System Interplay, Interfacing, And Integration increasingly, The Navy Is Recognizing The Need For Incorporating Flexibility And Adaptability Into Initial Ship Designs And Recognizing That The Integration Of New Systems And The Ability To Rapidly Reconfigure Them Will Be An Ongoing Challenge Throughout A Platform's Life Cycle In Order To Maintain Warfighting Relevancy. The Ability To Support Advanced Electrical Payload Warfighting Technologies Requires Not Only Power And Energy Systems Delivered With The Flexibility And Adaptability To Accommodate Them, But A Npes Engineering Enterprise With The Capability And Capacity (knowledge, Labor, And Capital) For Continuous Systems Integration. The Navy Can More Affordably Meet This Challenge By Shifting As Much Effort As Possible Into The Computational Modeling And Simulation Regime. an Integrated Power System (ips) Provides Total Ship Electric Power Including Electric Propulsion, Power Conversion And Distribution, Energy Storage, Combat System Support And Ship Mission Load Interfaces To The Electric Power System. Adding Energy Storage And Advanced Controls To Ips Results In An Integrated Power And Energy System (ipes) In Order To Accommodate Future High Energy Weapons And Sensors. The Ipes Energy Magazine Is Available To Multiple Users, And Provides Enhanced Power Continuity To The Power Distribution System. The Flexibility Of Electric Power Transmission Allows Power Generating Modules With Various Power Ratings To Be Connected To Propulsion Loads And Ship Service In Any Arrangement That Supports The Ships Mission At The Lowest Total Ownership Cost (toc). systems Engineering In Ips/ipes Is Focused On Increasing The Commonality Of Components Used Across Ship Types (both Manned And Unmanned) And In Developing Modules That Will Be Integral To Standardization, Zonal System Architectures, And Generic Shipbuilding Strategies With Standard Interfaces That Are Navy-controlled. Ipes Offers The Potential To Reduce Signatures By Changing The Frequency And Amplitude Of Acoustic And Electromagnetic Emissions. Integrated Energy Storage Can Reduce Observability By Enabling The Reduction And Elimination Of Prime Movers, Thereby Reducing Thermal And Acoustic Signatures. The Modules Or Components Developed Will Be Assessed For Applicability Both To New Construction And To Back-fit Opportunities That Improve The Energy Efficiency And Mission Effectiveness. areas Of Navy Interest Are To Continuously Improve Ips/ipes By Performing Analysis, Modeling And Simulation, Life Cycle Cost Analysis, Producibility Studies, Module Development, Ship Integration Studies, Architecture Design, Ship Electric Architectures And Support For High Power Weapons Systems Requirements, And Related Efforts. High Level Power System Architectures Are Based On Mvac And Mvdc Power With Attributes Of Power Density, Fault Management, Capability And Affordability. For Ship Service Electrical Loads, The Architecture Includes Zonal Electrical Distribution Which May Be Either Ac Or Dc, Depending Upon The Specific Application. In Addition To A Full Ipes Or Ips Implementation, Hybrid Electric Drive (hed) Where Mechanical Propulsion Is Augmented By Rotating Electric Machinery, Or Additional Power Generation Or Energy Storage May Be Of Interest. The Navy Desires To Understand The Performance And Cost Trade Space That Is Available For The Various Options Of Architecture; Component, System And Controls Technologies; Functional Allocations; And Interfaces. Also Of Interest Are Technologies That Result In Significant Energy Efficiency, Thermal Improvements, Power Density Improvements And/or Carbon Footprint Improvements Over Existing Propulsion And Power System Technologies. Another Area Of Interest For The Navy Is The Interface Definition Between Unique Electrical Loads And The Power System, And The Provision Of Specialty Power To Optimize That Load Interface. Among The Special Load Interfaces That Might Require Development Are Support For Pulsed Power Weapons And Sensors Such As Radar Power Supplies, Electromagnetic Launchers (for Example Electromagnetic Railgun), And Advanced Laser Systems, All Of Which Would Benefit From Optimized Integration With The Shipboard Power System. the Approach To Prototype Hardware Developed Under This Baa Is That It Fosters Modularity And Scalability (so That Families Of Products May Be Leveraged To Multiple Potential Applications) And Shall Accommodate An Open System Architecture Where Interfaces Are Well Defined And Mutually Accepted. The Navy Is Interested In Both Near Term Solutions That Have The Potential For Rapid Transition To A High Technology Readiness Level (trl) As Well As Longer Term Technology Pushes That Advance The Science And Would Enable A Future Compact Shipboard System. Risk Reducing Technology Prototype Demonstrations In The Near Term Are Encouraged. An Evaluation Of Emerging Technologies For Ship Applications (such As Energy Storage, Support For High Energy Weapons, Support For High Power Radars, High-speed Generators, And Advanced Power Electronics) To Determine Future Feasibility And Development Requirements Is Also Of Great Interest. Development Of Advanced Design Tools And Power System Specifications And Standards Is Also Key To Ensuring New Power Systems Will Integrate Aboard Ship. The Navy Is Interested In A Model-based Approach To Power System Engineering, From Early Concept System Architecture Trade Studies And Trade-space Exploration, To Production-ready Performance Specifications For Component And Systems Acquisitions. Particular Technologies And System Concepts Will Need To Be Evaluated In A Common Set Of Modeling Contexts And Environments Standardized Across The Navy Power System Engineering Enterprise. Modeling-enabled Evaluation Of Technology Alternatives And Performance Of System-level Trade Studies Requires That Models Be Delivered With A Sufficient Pedigree Supported By Analysis, Verification, And Validation (e.g., By Subscale Hardware Demonstrations) To Prove The Applicability Of The Models For The Standardized Modeling Contexts And Environments (model Based System Engineering). 5.
