Axe(s) of research
The Research Programme at IRCCYN is not only concerned with the theoretical production of new knowledge, but is very much of a technological nature in that it deals with the development of new tools and methods capable of bringing about solutions to concrete problems in the industrial or socio-economic sphere.The research and the optimisation strategy being developped covers a large scientific spectre including :
- Automatics
- Signal, Image and Radar Signals Processing
- Robotics
- Productics
- Computer Assisted Mechanical Design
- Real Time Systems
- Logistics and Operational Research
- Telecommunications
- Electro-magnetic Modelling
- Consideration of Human Factors (Cognitive Psychology).
Publications
More than 1000 publications per year ; all media
Equipments
The IRRCYN disposes of more than 6000m2 of premises on three sites : The Ecole Centrale of Nantes, The Ecole Polytechnique of Nantes University and the Ecole des Mines of Nantes.
