Nanoscale digital image correlation measurements on...
Digital image correlation (DIC) allows 2D mapping of the deformations occurring in a material, by tracking the displacements of a speckle pattern deposited on the specimen surface. The spatial resolution of the strain fields calculated with DIC depends on that of the speckle, and good-quality...

SEDIMARE : how to predict the effect of sediment...
Coastal and estuarine areas are under constant erosion/sedimentation pressure. The sustainable development of these areas depends on our understanding of and ability to predict the effect of complex sediment transport and morphodynamic processes and the development of effective applied...

Improve the design of offshore wind turbine foundations...
The foundations of Offshore Wind Turbines (OWT) represent a large share of their installation costs and environmental impact. In order to improve both aspects, the "SAGE-SAND" project investigates the evolution during multiple years of soils’ mechanical properties, called soil ageing,...
