LCS is a member of Labex EMC3

The EMC3 projet named « Energy Materials and Clean Combustion Center » is a « Laboratoire d\’Excellence » (Excellence research center)

The research centre is dedicated to Materials for Energy and Clean Combustion.

Supported by the CNRS, it joins 7 Norman laboratories:

4 laboratories in Caen (CIMAP, CRISMAT, LCMT and LCS),
2 laboratories in Rouen (CORIA, GPM),
1 laboratory in Le Havre (LOMC).

Involving 700 researchers including more than 200 PhD student, the EMC3 activities focus on materials for energy recovery, safety of nuclear installations, development of new materials from eco-friendly methods and on the improvement of fuel, combustion, exhaust gas decontamination and thermal energy recovery.

GPM : Materials Physics Group

GPM research covers phases transformations and phenomena of segregation or diffusion, magnetic properties and (metals and semi-conductors) nanomaterials mechanics and instrumentation. GPM is especially interested in kinetics, facing numerical simulation and experimentation. Irridation and intense deformation effects are also studied.
