Brief presentation of the institution: 
The University Blaise Pascal is composed of several institutions, engineering schools and laboratories. The institute Pascal, who is my laboratory, brings together several departments working on all aspects related to wood material and timber structures. The mechanical behavior of wood is the one of strong thematic of the Materials and Structures axis.

Main FP1407 related research topics:
Fracture effect induce of moisture and temperature variations Environnemental effects on wood modification Impact of the combined actions of heat, moisture, and mechanical pressure Behavior of timber structures under environnemental actions Reliability analysis of wood properties due to environnemental effects Deformation of wood by DIC and Grid Method under climate change

Brief information on available facilities:
Equipment available: 
Numerical computers, outdoor system of timber structure submitted to environnemental actions, hydrothermal cell, Cameras

Willingness to accept/host visiting researchers:
  Students
  Post-docs
  Senior Researchers

Projects related to FP1407:
