From design to end-of-life!
Optimise the properties of materials of the future by controlling their microstructure, their architecture and the different stages of their lifecycle: development, forming, recycling.
- Transports (car industry, aeronautics, railways etc.)
-
To make structures lighter, increaseengine efficiency (and therefore reduceenergy consumption), as well as to improvesafety and comfort etc..
Engineering courses:
- Energy
-
Nuclear energy
Materials to increasethe service life of power stations, to developnew generation reactors.
Engineering courses:
Master's degree courses
Alternative energiesNew materials and processes to produce cheaper and more efficient photovoltaic cells.
Engineering courses
- Leisure activities, sports - health
-
Lighter, solider, corrosion-resistant and biocompatible materials etc.
Engineering courses:
- Microelectronics
-
Selection of materials to meet the challenges of reduction of scales (when the dimensions of the components are similar to the size of the microstructures): limitdielectric leakage, maintain good conductivity performance, forcematerials to coexist in spite of incompatibilities linked to surface energies, manufacturehybrid components etc.
- Building industry
-
New materials to meet future standards for thermal insulation, sound insulation, temporary energy storage etc..
