Bilateral Grants with Industry

• The SOFIA project (SOlutions pour la Fabrication Industrielle Additive métallique) started in the summer of 2016. Its purpose is to make research in the field of metallic additive manufacturing. The industrial partners include Michelin, FMAS, ESI, Safran and others. The academic partners are different laboratories of CNRS, including CMAP at Ecole Polytechnique. The project is funded for 6 years by BPI (Banque Publique d'Investissement).

• FUI project Tandem. This three years project started in December 2012 and has been extended to September 2017 involves Bull-Amesys (coordinator), BOWEN (ERTE+SART), Ecole Polytechnique (CMAP), Inria, LEAT et VSM. It aims at constructing a radar system on a flying device capable of real-time imaging mines embedded in dry soils (up to 40 cm deep). We are in charge of numerical validation of the inverse simulator.

• FUI project Saxsize. This three years project started in October 2015 and involves Xenocs (coordinator), Inria (DEFI), Pyxalis, LNE, Cordouan and CEA. It is a followup of Nanolytix where a focus is put on SAXS quantifications of dense nanoparticle solutions.
