Welcome to the Clément Ader Institute (ICA, CNRS UMR 5312).
ICA is a research laboratory that focuses on the study of structures, systems and mechanical processes. Our activity sectors are in the mechanical industries with a particular focus on aerospace, space, transportation and energy. Our work usually focus on behavior modeling, instrumentation and the study of the durability of the structures or products considered. A large part of our research focus on composite materials, which play today an important role in structures.
