New partnership between Thales, ISAE-SUPAERO and its Foundation
Patrice Caine, CEO of the Thales Group, was on the ISAE-SUPAERO campus on Wednesday February 28 to sign a new partnership between Thales, ISAE-SUPAERO and its Foundation. The partnership will take the form of a research chair in Integrated Air Transport Systems (STAI).
The aim of a chair? To promote an emerging discipline or area of knowledge, at the interface between academia and business and industry, in a mutually beneficial partnership. By drawing on the recognised skills of ISAE-SUPAERO in the optimisation of flight operations and the systems approach, and on those of the Thales Group in flight avionics, connectivity and air traffic control, this association will enable both Thales and the Institute to increase their level of excellence in the fields of modelling, AI and operational research.
"This privileged link will enable Thales and ISAE-SUPAERO to work together, with a different and complementary perspective, on extremely promising strategic development areas: understanding flight operations in their entirety with the aim of optimising them and limiting CO2 emissions as much as possible".
Bruno Nouzille Technical Director of Avionics at ThalesA thesis and eleven grants
This programme includes a research component, with support from Thales for the recruitment of a PhD student to work on the Chair’s projects. The work will be directed by Rob Vingerhoeds, professor of systems engineering in the Complex Systems Engineering Department (DISC) at ISAE-SUPAERO.
"The aim of this work is to gain as complete an understanding as possible of the current air transport system, to use modelling and simulation to make visible every aspect that could impact on the overall system, and to analyse any inefficiencies. This, in turn, will enable proposals for new operational concepts to be considered."
Rob Vingerhoeds Professor of Systems Engineering in the Complex Systems Engineering Department (DISC)The STAI Chair
The STAI Chair also includes an excellence scholarship scheme, the aim of which is to attract high-calibre, high-potential students to ISAE-SUPAERO by offering them, with the support of the sponsoring company, substantial resources to help them achieve their ambitious academic projects. Eleven students from the Engineering and Master in Aerospace Engineering programmes will be honoured until 2027.
"Thales' contribution to these scholarships for excellence contributes to the international attractiveness of the Institute".
Agnès Trincal Director of the ISAE-SUPAERO FoundationA second partnership
This is the second partnership of this type between Thales and ISAE-SUPAERO. In 2015, the high-tech group and the Institute joined forces to create their first sponsorship chair in embedded systems engineering. The partnership led to the creation of a new training pathway, several modules and support for students via excellence grants.

AeroMAPS: an ISAE-SUPAERO reference tool for exploring the possible futures of aviationThe AeroMAPS tool, developed by two ISAE-SUPAERO researchers, Scott Delbecq and Thomas Planès, can be used to assess the environmental impacts of air transport and the effectiveness or limitations of levers to decarbonize the sector! Initially designed for research and training purposes, the tool is now a multidisciplinary, open-source platform, accessible to experts as well as institutional, industrial and associative decision-makers. Its development has been integrated into the work of the Institute for Sustainable Aviation (ISA), an interdisciplinary research institute headed by Laurent Joly, whose aim is to address the issue of #aviation's ecological transition in all its complexity. By playing on the sector's transition levers, AeroMAPS users can define the scenarios whose impacts they wish to analyze. For example, the introduction of new aircraft types, the use of new fuels or the rate of growth in air traffic. AeroMAPS is the first air transport scenario exploration platform built on an open-source scientific methodology. It was initially designed and developed to enable researchers to explore air transport transition scenarios in detail. It was then rapidly integrated into training programs: first in the ISAE-SUPAERO engineering curriculum, then in continuing education programs. To facilitate use of the tool, a partnership was formed with Sopra Steria. This major tech player built the platform's new web interface to enhance the user experience and make it accessible to decision-makers. Research work recently took on a socio-economic dimension with a PhD prepared by Antoine Salgas, in partnership with TBS Education. Antoine Salgas has also created a traffic and emissions inventory in collaboration with the Dutch Delft University of Technology. These two aspects of his thesis gave rise to an AeroMAPS “satellite” tool, called AeroSCOPE, which enables analyses to be partitioned and regionalized. Today, the comprehensive, multi-disciplinary aspect of AeroMAPS is a decision-making aid for the entire #aeronautics ecosystem. Through its scientific expertise, ISAE-SUPAERO contributes to the debate and to the future of aviation.

Living a Low-carbon CampusOne of the main thrusts of our ‘Horizons’ strategy is based on our actions to promote our campus. A sustainable campus that exemplifies our commitment to setting an example. This means implementing a low-carbon strategy aimed at reducing our greenhouse gas emissions, adapting our campus to future environmental impacts and reducing other environmental impacts (notably biodiversity and resources).
