From the heart of matter to innovative integrated technologies – to functionalize, optimize and verify materials, microsystem ... s and structures The research activities of the Applied Mechanics Department are organized around two unifying axes: - The "Micromechanical: materials and processes" axis whose activities are at the interface between the world of nanotechnologies - the preferred field of the MIMENTO platform - and the macroscopic world that constitutes our perceptual reality. This specific positioning is particularly supported by the deployment of the MIFHySTO platform, a true tool for federation and outreach. - The "Structures: integration and functionalization" axis crystallises its joint activities around the Labex ACTION "Smart Skin" project, by adding an "Eco" component to illustrate to a large extent the scientific ambitions of the different themes of the axis. The research is aimed at developing new composite materials, including biosourced plant fibers and matrices, integrating transducer networks that provide structures with self-monitoring capabilities, adaptive interactions with their environment, energy collection and storage room ... read more
