Wetenschappelijke activiteiten

Onze betrokkenheid in wetenschappelijk onderzoek en ontwikkeling van innoverende oplossingen weerspiegelt ons engagement om onze klanten altijd de beste dienstverlening te bieden.

Hierna enkele voorbeelden van onze wetenschappelijke activiteiten :

Europees wetenschappelijk onderzoek

Objectief : opstellen van Europese normen betreffende geluidbeperkende constructies langs wegen

In het kader van de activiteiten van het Europese Normalisatie Comité, heeft Jean-Pierre Clairbois sinds 1990 het voorzitterschap van de werkgroep betreffende geluidbeperkende constructies langs wegen

Naast de normen inzake de akoestische prestatie-eisen, heeft de werkgroep eveneens normen opgesteld inzake stabiliteit, veiligheid en duurzaamheid van producten.

Onderzoek en Ontwikkeling

Dankzij een doorgedreven en volgehouden investering in onderzoek en ontwikkeling kunnen wij onze klanten een optimaal antwoord bieden aan hun problemen.

Deze houding ondersteunt de verdere ontwikkeling van ons programma voor modellering en/of analyse van metingen. Vanzelfsprekend worden onze ontwikkelingen gevalideerd door doorgedreven testen op het terrein waarover dikwijls verslag wordt uitgebracht in wetenschappelijke artikels.

Artikels en publicaties

Wij publiceren regelmatig over het resultaat van ons onderzoek, in het kader van onze deelname aan een congres of in samenwerking met de gespecialiseerde geschreven pers.
