Mechanical science research with the Dupuy de Lôme Research Institute (IRDL)
ENSTA Bretagne’s mechanical science research teams are part of the IRDL (CNRS joint research unit/UMR 6027): the reference laboratory for mechanical systems and materials engineering in Brittany and at national level. The IRDL conducts partnership-based research in close conjunction with various companies and is also a member of the ARTS Carnot Institute (ARTS stands for Research Actions for Technology and Society).
With 300 members, this is the leading laboratory in the mechanical engineering field in Brittany. It is scientifically organized into 5 research hubs (RH):
- RH1 = Composites, biocomposites, nanocomposites,
- RH2 = Multi-material assemblies
- RH3 = Structures, fluids and interactions
- RH4 = Energy systems and thermal processes
- RH5 = Material behavior and durability
ENSTA Bretagne’s activities concern research hubs 2, 3 and 5 (in bold above). The industrial challenges are wide-ranging:
- reducing the environmental footprint
- adapting to changing legislation
- harnessing new, more efficient, widely available and affordable materials
- increasing in-service durability, etc.
Although the IRDL’s research activities encompass a much wider scope, it has identified three main application areas to which these activities nevertheless make a key contribution and which give it a unique standing in France:
- SEA (shipbuilding, offshore, MRE),
- TRANSPORT (automobile, aeronautics),
- DEFENSE (on sea and on land).
Receiving a very positive rating in January 2016 from the High Council for Evaluation of Research and Higher Education (HCERES), the IRDL lab was assessed for:
• its original and ambitious scientific strategy
• the right balance between upstream and applied research
• the extensive interaction with businesses
• the excellent quality of research-led teaching
The IRDL’s research can leverage a wide range of original experimental facilities. On the ENSTA Bretagne campus, this test equipment, and the technical team which prepares the tests, make up the MASMECA technology platform.

Naval architecture & Marine energies
DESIGNING ALL TYPES OF SHIPS, SUBMARINES, AND OFFSHORE STRUCTURES
ENSTA Bretagne offers France's most comprehensive naval architecture and engineering program with the highest enrollment. It also offers, with its partners, a course 100% devoted to marine renewable energies.
All types of ships and platforms: sailing and motor yachts, offshore racing boats, cruise ships, passenger boats, cargo vessels, LNG carriers, container ships, ro-ro ships, offshore platforms, civil professional vessels, military ships, submarines, marine renewable energies platforms (MRE).
All the parameters required for the proper operation of the system are considered: hydrodynamics and aerodynamics, durability, stability, propulsion, structural calculations, maneuverability, seaworthiness, ergonomics, etc.
Innovating for the future also means seeking more environmentally-friendly and more energy-efficient materials and propulsion systems. The Mechanical Science Research Department at ENSTA Bretagne contributes to this effort through the IRDL (Institut de Recherche Dupuy de Lôme), a CNRS Joint Research Center which is leading the way on these issues.
Program strengths
International renown

- durability of MRE systems at sea in order to reduce their operating costs and on the optimization of their seabed connection,
- the composites used in the naval and MRE sectors. The use of composites, together with a composite-to-metal bonding technique, boosts the competitiveness of the MRE sector. The challenge lies in integrating the life cycle analysis from the design phase to produce systems able to operate durably at sea, with minimal maintenance and optimized dismantling.
They also focus, within the Lab-STICC, on embedded systems, and their adaptability and their reliability.
This applied research is conducted in collaboration with many businesses and organizations in the maritime sector based both in France and around the globe.
Extensive experimental equipment
Digital simulation tools for fluid mechanics and fluid-structure interactions are developed to meet the challenges raised during the naval design phase: advance resistance assessment during the pre-project phase, assessment of the hydrodynamic performance of propulsion systems, behavior of marine structures in swell, structures exposed to impact.
Many scientific studies, ranging in scale from that of the material to that of the entire structure, are validated using our extensive and unparalleled experimental facilities. These facilities, which form the MASMECA platform, at the ENSTA Bretagne campus, are also used by students for applied projects.
In addition, every year hydrodynamics study days are organized at the DGA Techniques hydrodynamiques center and throughout the year at Ifremer's test tanks, situated only a few kilometers from the campus, as part of joint scientific programs.
