Abstract: Abstract Let Σ be a physical system whose evolution is to be studied. Generally, many models are possible. Here, we consider modelling at a macroscopic level (or classical microscopic, without quantum physics), with a deterministic point of view. Studying a system Σ by a family of observers leads one to represent the system using frames and atlases, that is, a family of charts that leads to a modelling by a set M equipped with a manifold structure that is often Riemannian, with a notion of distance.
