Project summary (french):De nos jours, le comportement mécanique de très nombreuses structures (industrielles, bio-médicales, …) est simulé à l’aide d’outils numériques. Il s’agit de construire une représentation numérique de la structure ou de l’assemblage considéré dans un logiciel de conception assistée par ordinateur. Ces logiciels permettent ensuite la simulation…
