Smart mechanics
The Smart Mechanics degree is an EIPHI graduate school master focusing on research and innovation in the field of Smart Structures for mechanics. (EIPHI : Engineering and Innovation through Physical sciences, High technologies, and cross-dIsciplinary research).
Smart Structures are innovative solutions for applications as vibroacoustic control (NVH), Structural Heath Monitoring, Shape Control, or Energy Harvesting for instance. Different strategies can be developed to add such new functionalities to structures as the design of complex architected technological solutions, the integration of smart materials with specific behaviors, or the development of embedded active devices with electronic circuits. The purpose of the present master is to learn students about all these emerging structures for them to become a R&D engineer in a laboratory or a company in sectors such as transport, energy, defense, or prepare a PhD.
The Master degree aims to develop skills in design, modeling numerical simulation and experiments of smart structures. As such solutions are likely to involve many physical phenomena (optical, thermal, electromagnetic, …) coupled to mechanical applications, the specialization includes methodologies for mechanical and multiphysic modeling with advanced mathematical, numerical and experimental tools
The Smart Mechanics Master Degree is associated to the Department of Applied Mechanics of the FEMTO-ST Institute. One specialization of the departement is the integration and functionalization of structures. Students work in the research laboratory for their projects, many of their teaching activities, and can carry out their internship in the premises.
