Carnot Institute ARTS
The Carnot Institute ARTS (Actions for Research, Technology and Society; french: Actions de Recherche pour la Technologie et la Société) is a French research institute. It was originally created to group the 15 laboratories of the engineering school Arts et Métiers ParisTech. It received the Carnot label in 2006. Creation ARTS was among the first 20 institutes to be certified by the French Minister of higher education and research. Laboratories The laboratories are spread in the 8 centers of teaching and research of Arts et Métiers ParisTech. Some of them have satellite facilities in the 3 institutes of research of Arts et Métiers ParisTech and in the buildings of research partners like CNAM or école navale. Departments The laboratories are organized in 3 departments: * Design, Industrialization, Risk, Decision (CIRD) * Mechanics, Materials, Processes (M2P) * Fluids and Energy (FISE) Labs by locations The list of the laboratories grouped by main locations : *Îl ...

Mechanics
Mechanics (from Ancient Greek: μηχανική, ''mēkhanikḗ'', "of machines") is the area of mathematics and physics concerned with the relationships between force, matter, and motion among physical objects. Forces applied to objects result in displacements, or changes of an object's position relative to its environment. Theoretical expositions of this branch of physics has its origins in Ancient Greece, for instance, in the writings of Aristotle and Archimedes (see History of classical mechanics and Timeline of classical mechanics). During the early modern period, scientists such as Galileo, Kepler, Huygens, and Newton laid the foundation for what is now known as classical mechanics. As a branch of classical physics, mechanics deals with bodies that are either at rest or are moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. It can also be defined as the physical science that deals with the motion of and forces on bodies not in the quantum realm ...
