Sectors of application
Energy, high-risk industries (petro-chemistry), cement plants, insurance companies
Your challenges
- Assess the risk of seismic induced faults in equipment
- Validate the performance of structures and equipment under seismic loading
Our strengths
- Expertise in seismology, geotechnics, civil engineering and structural dynamics.
- Numerical simulation tools for site effects, soil-structure interaction and structural behavior, based on code_aster (open source thermomechanical solver) hosted in Salome_Meca.
- Testing facilities to test the equipment's performance in the event of an earthquake.
Our offer
Assessment of the seismic risk of a facility and its equipment:
- Seismic hazard through seismology
- Site effects (soil knowledge)
- The interaction between soil and structure
- The behavior and strength of the structure (concrete, backfill...)
- The foundation - equipment interaction
- Behavior and resilience of the equipment
This offer is intended for:
- Seismic risk assessment by integrating the entire analytical chain from the fault to structures and equipment
- Performance validation of structures and equipment under seismic loading
We offer you:
- Methodological advice and expert opinion on the entire seismic risk chain
- Advanced studies on the basis of numerical simulation
- Validation of models by means of laboratory or on-site tests
