Detailed program - Physics
The physics module consists of 11 hours of lectures and 5 hours of small-group exercises.The lecturesVector theoryVector magnitude: definition and representations (geometric and algebraic)Composition of vectors from their geometric representationAlgebraic representation of a vectorComposition of vectors from their algebraic representationUse of vectors in physics - Example of the translational equilibrium of a body subjected to several forces.KinematicsThe fundamental quantities of kinematicsThe position vector and the law of spacesThe velocity vector and the law of velocitiesThe acceleration vector and the law of accelerationsAnalysis of a few simple simple motionsUniform rectilinear motion - MRUUniformly accelerated rectilinear motion - MRUAThe falling des corpsComposition d'un MRU et d'un MRUAExercisesDynamicsObjectif - notion of force - measurement of a forceForcesUniversal gravitationWeightElastic forceFrictional forceLa Newton's 1st law (principle of inertia) and some applicationsNewton's 2nd lawMassApplications of Newton's 2nd law : satellite motion, motion on an inclined plane, parabolic flightNewton's 3rd law (action-reaction principle) and some applications.ElectrostaticsElectric chargeThe force between two point charges: Coulomb's dormouse and the electric fieldApplications: calculating the field produced by point chargesContinuous distribution of charges: field created by a straight, infinitely long, uniformly charged wire (use of the integral)The electric potentialThe scalar productThe work of a forceThe potential created by a point charge and the physical direction of the potentialThe exercisesThe exercises are carried out in small groups with the help of an assistant.They focus mainly on vector calculus and kinematics. These two subjects also provide an opportunity to review a few essential mathematical tools for tackling a physics course: trigonometry and the derivative.

Adding value to research
Universities and Hautes Écoles are real breeding grounds in terms of research and innovation: convinced of their mission to serve the community, they have created knowledge transfer advisors. ADRE's advisors are on hand to provide researchers with support in a number of areas.

Legal support
Research and innovation are generally accompanied by contracts. The legal department is at your disposal to draft these contracts or review proposals. These contracts come into play at different stages of the research process and have different objectives, so much so that it is difficult to draw up an exhaustive list. You will find here a list of frequent contracts for which you can rely on the legal department, as well as the contact form to submit your request.
