Our physical modelling solutions for sizing your hydraulic structures and guaranteeing their safety

Urban and industrial hydraulics
In a small and highly constrained space, such as an urban or industrial site, the physical hydraulic modeling of complex structures is a powerful and reliable tool which makes it possible to optimize their sizing and consequently to reduce the cost of the project.

River developments and hydrosedimentary models
From the problems of flooding to the risk of scouring at the foot of a bridge's piers, the various hydraulic and hydro-sedimentary phenomena encountered in torrents, rivers and streams are often complex. Physical modeling is the most efficient and reliable tool for faithfully reproducing the phenomena involved and thus guaranteeing optimized sizing of structures.

Dams and hydropower
Physical modeling makes it possible to achieve a technically and economically optimized design of hydraulic structures associated with dams and hydroelectric facilities. In particular, it makes it possible to reproduce complex flows mixing air and water, vortices and strong turbulence.
