Multi-scale modeling and characterization of coupled

Research team - ULR 4515

Description

We study the development and use of modeling to improve the understanding of the behavior of geomaterials and infrastructures by taking into account the multi-scale nature of the problems encountered. The goal is to model the behavior and characterize materials from the nanometric to the macroscopic scale.
Our current projects are mainly related to geomaterials at all scales, the various couplings (hydro-thermo-mechanical, physico-chemical ...) and the interaction of the structure with its environment.
Our research is organized around three main topics:
- Nanomaterial modeling of geomaterials
- Multi-scale mechanical characterization of materials
- Large-scale modeling of soil-structure interactions
