LAMSI
(Shape Memory Alloys and Intelligent Systems Laboratory)
The LAMSI has assumed the task of promoting
the emergence of Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) and of so-called intelligent
systems using SMAs within new industrial applications. To achieve
this objective, the research team developed know-how at the level
of experimental characterization, of manufacturing and of numerical
modeling adapted to SMA pecularities. Furthermore, the laboratory
is very active in the design and manufacture of functional prototypes.
By working at all stages of development of new industrial applications
using SMAs, the LAMSI is thus in a position to act as a bridge
between theory and practice as well as between metallurgists and
application engineers.

LiNCS
/ SCeLAB (Semantics and Cognitive
Engineering Laboratory)
The SCeLAB is interested in any textual or visual descriptions
applying to computer, electronic and biologic systems used for
industrial and scientific applications in the engineering and
sciences fields. More precisely, SCeLAB teams focus on the mapping
between narrative written description in natural language (document)
and his visual representation (model or diagram).
The laboratory interests cover also e-learning standards and
tools. Here two lines of research are explored, first learning
objects integration in an automatic or semi-automatic way, second
automatic or semi automatic recuperation of information describing
learning objects.
SCeLAB research activities advocate technological innovations
having business potential as products and services. This is the
SCeLAB’s own way to participate into the economic and social
development our community.
