The next annual ELyT Lab Workshop on March 12 to 14, 2012 in France
The 4th ELyT Lab workshop will be held in France from March 12 to 14, 2012, in Presqu'ile de Giens (south east).
ElyT School in Lyon 2011
The third edition of the ELyT School was held from the 4th to the 14th of September 2011 in Lyon with the visit of 30 students (20 PhD and 10 Master students) accompanied by four professors from Tohoku University.
The 3rd ELyT lab workshop
The 3rd ELyT lab workshop, held in Sendai during 3 days from February 22th to 24th 2011 has been a great success, involving about 100 researchers (among them 35 French attendees) and several industrial partners. This confirms the dynamism of our joint laboratory. Program and some presentations can be downloaded here. The website is regularly updated.Research project
Five main fields of study have been identified:
• Biosciences & Engineering (B),
• Durability, Reliability in Energy and Transportation (R),
• Nano & Micro Scale Materials & Devices (M),
• Flow Dynamics, Heat Transfers and Microfluidics (F),
Core frame of the five selected fields of study
As already explained, we focus our collaboration on five fields. Within these fields, we propose subprojects, which correspond, roughly speaking to research activities compatible with one or two years post-doc periods or PhD thesis, and in some case may involve several post-doc and PhD students. It means that the mean time for each project to become mature is around two to three years. In the following sections, the main point of the five fields is shortly described. The 21 subprojects are also detailed.
As we know that the field covered by the project is very large, we decided that the domains covered by the LIA must necessarily be included within the CNRS Department "Sciences et Technologies de l'Information et de l'Ingénierie" (ST2I). It means for instance, that the fields covered by the Biosciences & Engineering thematic must correspond to the "Comité National" sections 27 and 30, but as close as possible to their engineering aspects.
