Research - Poitiers, Poitou-Charentes, France
The LEA focuses on fluid mechanics, and in particular on the study of steady, unsteady and turbulent flows, both compressible and incompressible. The laboratory research activities are supported by high-performance experimental facilities and a wide range of analysis and measurement techniques. In addition, the LEA has significant activity in the field of high-precision numerical simulation. Applied research activity is primarily concerned with the transport domain (nautical, terrestrial, aeronautical and aerospace). The LEA has a strong background in aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, aero-acoustics, electrical discharge, and heat transfer problems, an interacts closely with the others laboratories of the University of Poitiers. Other research activities include the bio-medical, food and civil development domains.
