Why is Valyrian steel so strong? What can we learn from electrons traveling through matter? How can we use X-ray tomography to guess what surprise is hidden inside a chocolate egg? These are just some of the questions that researchers at the Laboratory for the Study of Microstructures and Materials Mechanics (LEM3) will be answering.

Researchers at LEM3 (a joint laboratory run by Arts et Métiers, the University of Lorraine, and CNRS) in association withENIM and IRT-M2P offer two ways to learn about their activities.

Workshops to discover characterization platforms in materials science

During a 1.5-hour guided tour, each group of 4 to 5 people will discover four workshops (from among the 10 on offer). Two departure times (by reservation only):

Meet at 7 Rue Félix Savart in Metz Technopôle, in the new LEM3 building.

A lecture: "The Physics of Deformation at the Heart of Fantasy: Why did Elendil's sword break? Why is Valyrian steel so strong?"

Antoine Guitton, senior lecturer at the University of Lorraine, will lead this conference. You can attend it:
