Thesis defense by Clément Nony-Davadie, doctoral student at the Laboratory for the Study of Microstructures and Materials Mechanics (LEM3): "Multiscale modeling of damage in a thermosetting resin composite reinforced with short carbon fibers."
"Changes in the industrial landscape are pushing the transportation industry, and more specifically the automotive sector, to achieve weight savings. This involves, in part, the development of new composite material solutions. This thesis is devoted to the mechanical characterization and micromechanical modeling of a new SMC composite material reinforced with carbon fiber strands. The objective is to establish an initial knowledge base on the fatigue behavior of this SMC. [...]"
