Research

Teachers and researchers who collaborate with LERMA are integrated, too, in terms of Departmental Section, in the Research Group REMM (Research in Mechanics of Materials and Structures).

The activity of this research group can be found on the corresponding website http://www.upc.edu/ at section "Research> Scientific production of UPC> Research Groups> REMM"

The main lines of research are:

Experimental Analysis of stresses
Testing of mechanical components
Structures
Continuum Mechanics
Strength of Materials
Numerical simulation

Open thin-walled metal sections

Open thin-walled section's behaviour under bending
Thin-walled section's behaviour under compression
Section's global buckling behaviour optimization
Process modelling of steel sections

Mixed concretes

Mixed concretes: finite element simulation of the longitudinal shear force failure

Analysis and design of special structures

Seismic design of light-weight structures
Design of the mechanical components of the "MICROTRÒ CATALUNYA"

Fire resistance

Fire resistance

Special applications of stress measurements

Dynametric platform of six components
Project "SHARE-it" instrumentation of "INTELLIGENT WALKER"
