Aurélie Anne-Laure TerrierAn architect and archaeologist, Aurélie Terrier has been developing for more than two decades a singular expertise at the interface of architectural archaeology, digital heritage and the history of ancient built environments. Her research focuses on ancient and medieval architecture, architectural archaeology, the reuse of building materials, issues related to construction sites, new technologies and digital humanities, as well as the valorisation and restoration of heritage. Trained in architecture at the
David Michael Volpe RuggieroTeaching & PhD PhD Students Ömer Faruk Behçet, Elias Merhi, Enrico Pinelli, Ahmad Abdulrahman Ahmad Majdouba, Muhammad Mahmood Mohi Ud Din Courses Reinforced concrete structures CIVIL-323 This course introduces the student to the behaviour and design of reinforced concrete structures. The student will learn the principles of analysis of reinforced concrete and how to design common concrete elements including columns, beams, and slabs. Reinforced concrete structures - advanced topics
Guillaume AnciauxResearchResearch Topics My research can be decomposed in three main blocks:First, the main goal of my current research is the physical description of contact interactions. I performed numerous studies of this topic using different models from the continuum scale down to atomistic scale. Since atomic phenomena and macroscopic observations are linked, the physics of contact needs the simultaneous consideration of several scales. For instance, plasticity is a theory defined for the macroscopic scale whereas t
Karen ScrivenerDe nationalité anglaise, Karen Scrivener est née en 1958. Au cours de sa carrière, ses travaux et sa recherche traitaient des domaines suivants: Identification du développement microstucturale pendant l'hydratation du ciment. Elaboration d'une approche multitechnique pour étudier la microstucture des ciments et bétons, avec accent sur la quantification par analyse des images d'électrons retrodiffusés. Caractérisation de l'auréole de transition de la pâte de ciment autour des granulats. Compréhension des processus de dégardation des bétons, en particulier le gonflement lié à la formation de l'éttringite retardée dans les bétons étuvés.
