White Paper on Research in MechanicsIndustrial and societal issuesResearch, innovation, trainingAssociation Française de MécaniqueThe mechanical sector is a cornerstone of industry. It constitutes both an industrial sector in its own right (the mechanical industry represented by the equipment, processing and precision trades grouped together within the FIM, Federation of Mechanical Industries), but also a set of technologies on which are based many sectors such as those which build materials for transport, energy, health, environment.This White Paper on Research in Mechanics is prepared by the High Mechanical Committee (HCM) in the framework of the Association Française de Mécanique (AFM). Its objectives are: the identification of industrial needs and innovative technologies, the proposal of research and technology orientations to initiate R&D projects, and the provision of information for industrialists, decision-makers but also scientists who can ignore the resources that their environment conceals. Four main chapters make up this White Paper. After the presentation of the elements of the panorama, the major stakes in the industrial sectors are detailed, the scientific challenges are treated by research themes and the approaches which allow to design and produce differently are approached. A list of organizations and research laboratories in the field of Mechanics is appended to the book. |
