Team "Fluid Dynamics, Materials and Structures"

It combines the research activities ENSIETA and UBO in the field of dynamics (fluid mechanics, materials and structures).

Our team accepts his theme in two groups:

• group calculations and experiments in marine structures DYNamic (CESMADYN) led by Jean-Marc Laurens
• group Complex Fluids (CF) led by Blaise Nsom.

The activity was mainly oriented DFMS team in recent years to study the dynamic behavior of ship structures subjected to hydrodynamic stress, the theme flows with heterogeneous also discussed.

In particular theoretical models, numerical simulations and experiments have been developed on the following issues: hydrodynamics of appendages, free movement of an object underwater shock waves underwater, slamming (slamming into English), behavior dynamics of composite laminates.

These research activities have appealed repeatedly to the disciplines of physical interfaces. We thus find topics related to multiphase fluids or even multi-species and the dynamics of fluid-fluid interfaces, solid-solid and fluid-solid. Most of this research have applications in the maritime context, mostly naval.
