Structural and material mechanics play a key role in the design and development of aeronautical components. To fully exploit the potential of new materials, whether metallic or composite, it is essential to ensure their integrity within complex structures subjected to extreme stresses. This requires advanced modeling of evolution and degradation phenomena at different scales. Numerical simulation plays a key role in this regard. However, although computing capabilities continue to improve, codes must adapt to new hardware architectures and numerical methods to integrate ever richer and more complex models. With this in mind, Safran, ONERA, and the École des Mines de Paris are continuing their long-standing collaboration by developing a new, next-generation finite element code. Natively designed for high-performance computing (HPC), this innovative tool aims to meet the challenges posed by the growing complexity of structures and materials in aeronautics.
