GRINHELEC: Developing and characterizing a greener insulation for high-voltage cables

In a context where European regulations will eventually require a massive restriction of the use of fluorinated polymers, GRINHELEC (GReen INsulation for High power ELECtrical harnesses) project intends to make possible the use of a bio-sourced insulation in effort to supplant the fluorinated insulators of the cables dedicated for electric propulsion. This project is part[…]

FREEzING 2: project dedicated to the development of durable icephobic surfaces for aeronautics

FREEzING 2, encouraged by the promising results obtained from FREEzING (2019-2023), starts at the beginning of March 2024. The aim of the project is to continue the development of durable icephobic surfaces using various surface treatment processes for aeronautical applications, and to assess their performances in a representative environment close to flight test. Project background[…]

Professional Equality Index 2023

Each year, all companies with at least 50 employees must calculate their professional equality index, a tool designed to address pay inequalities between men and women. Details of the score obtained: IRT Saint Exupéry obtained an overall score of 86/100, keeping its score stable since 2022. Although we are pleased with this improvement, we continue[…]

DEEL: The Robust and Explainable Artificial Intelligence Program Enters Phase 2

DEEL (DEpendable and Explainable Learning) is a project, primarily a collaborative Franco-Quebec research team based in Toulouse (France) and Montreal (Quebec). Launched in 2018, its main objective is to develop new solutions for reliable and explainable machine learning. DEEL is managed by IVADO, CRIAQ, IID, ANITI, and IRT Saint Exupéry. With a budget of €30[…]

COMPINNOV TP2 project: Acting on thermoplastic prepregs to optimise the quality of industrial composite parts!

2023 marks the end of the COMPINNOV TP2 project. Three years of research and development into high-performance thermoplastic composite semi-finished products, giving us a better understanding of the links between prepregs materials and manufacturing processes. Context The IRT Saint Exupéry COMPINNOV TP2 project is part of the French aerospace industry, for aerostructure applications. Most of[…]
