AUTHORS

Marc Budinger is associate professor at INSA and researcher at Institut Clément Ader in Toulouse. He got in 1998 the Agregation degree in Applied Physics, in 2003 the Ph.D degrees in Electrical Engineering from Institut National Polytechnique de Toulouse and in 2014 the HDR in Mechanical Engineering from Toulouse University. His research activities have included design of electrical submarine propulsion motor, piezoelectric actuators and MEMS. His current research topic deals with the modelling and preliminary design of aerospace electromechanical actuators. His teaching activities concern modelling and design of mechatronic systems for systems engineering students.

Ion Hazyuk is associate professor at INSA Toulouse and researcher at Institut Clément Ader. He received the engineer’s degree in Automation System Engineering in 2007 from Technical University of Cluj-Napoca (Romania), and the Ph.D degree in thermal science and energetics in 2011 from INSA Lyon. In the past he worked on optimal control of thermal energy in buildings and his current research topic focuses on thermal and dynamic modelling for systems simulation and design. His teaching activities cover linear dynamic systems, control engineering, mechatronics and thermal systems.

Clément Coïc, a Systems Engineering engineer at INSA Toulouse, Industrial Engineering at Jaime 1 University (Spain) and doctor of mechanical engineering at INSA Toulouse, is a modeling/simulation consultant, project manager and product developer at Modelon. His professional experience has led him to develop Modelica model libraries at Dassault Systèmes and to design hydraulic components and systems at Airbus Helicopters using model-based approaches.
