Field of expertise

Our specialised skills are recognised in the fields of mechanics, calculation of structures and materials.

Material behaviour

The behaviour of metals, composites, polymers, elastomers and glass

Composite materials,

  • Projection of materials’ properties
  • Failure and reliability criteria
  • Fatigue behavioural analysis, linked to ageing
  • Links to construction standards and rules
  • Consideration of residual constraints linked to manufacturing

Elastomer materials.

  • Identification of materials’ properties
  • Hyper-elastic calculations
  • Contact, friction, wear, major deformations
  • Failure criteria, usage limitations
  • Fatigue behavioural analysis
  • Visco-hyperelastic behaviour

Structural calculation 

Design and dimensioning of equipment - structures and mechanisms (static, dynamic, earthquake, impacts)

Calculation of solid mechanics,

  • Analysis of behaviour of structures,
  • Static,
  • Non-linear static,
  • Modal analysis,
  • Linear or non-linear dynamic,
  • Buckling,
  • Warping,
  • Fatigue,
  • Thermal calculations (permanent and transient states),
  • Thermo-mechanical coupling, CFD-Structure coupling
  • Mechanical optimisation,
  • Seismic calculations (spectral responses, time history)
  • Numerical finite element calculations using software: RADIOSS, NASTRAN, ADINA, ANSYS, Hypermesh, Optistruct, CAESAR, ROBOT.
