| | The result of about fifteen years of studies and research within ONERA's Solid Mechanics and Damage Mechanisms Department (DMSE), the EMIR (Electromagnetic Infra-red) method makes it possible to visualize in 2D the amplitude of an electric field in a broad frequency band (from 500 MHz to more than 20GHz). The sensor used in the technique is made of an extremely thin film (25 microns), which surface is covered with a slightly absorbent deposited layer, and the receiver, made of an infra-red camera.... |

| 3. | Organic Matrix Composites - ONERA / DMSC-EN |
| | Organic matrix composites are widely used in aerospace industry.However, to produce reliable and performing materials increasingly, it is necessary to investigate their properties, damage mechanisms, damage tolerance and durability on different dimension scales of laminates.. Research is conducted within the following areas : assessment of fibre and matrix properties using chemical and thermomechanical facilities micromechanical aspects of components to describe their elementary behaviour and relate them to the overall behaviour of laminates analysis of physical properties and damage state of laminates subjected to thermal and/or mechanical stresses. |
