WHY TRAIN YOUR TEAMS IN THE DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR OF MATERIALS?

Understanding the behavior of materials when they are exposed to high strain rates is essential in order to reliably assess them and correctly design structures that could be submitted to violent shocks. Why? Because materials behave very differently under dynamic conditions compared to when under static or quasi-static conditions.

Do you or your teams work on material characterization, explosive/structural interactions, or the development and design of structures required to withstand impacts, very high-speed perforations, explosions or detonations?

Tap into THIOT INGENIERIE’s expertise on one of the SHOCK PHYSICS ACADEMY’s training courses, and improve your knowledge of the dynamic behavior of materials and numerical simulation.

Next training course: Ballistic impact on metallic materials:
tests and numerical simulation (FOR02)
November 14 to 16, 2023

Formation en physique des chocs et dynamique des matériaux

AN INNOVATIVE TRAINING CONCEPT

Our training courses combine theory sessions and practical work in our Shock Physics Laboratory. The instructors are none other than our own engineers and researchers, who have joined forces with top partners, such as Impetus Afea for numerical simulation applied to fast phenomena.

The Shock Physics Academy is aimed at organizations confronted with problems related to materials and structures that undergo shock stress, offering them the chance to familiarize themselves with this complex field of fast dynamics and learn its principles and methods.
