A couple of people arrived recently in the group. Cecile d’Almeida, from the University of Grenoble, will spend 5 months with us to do her master thesis on rockfall analysis (LiDAR, …). Caroline Lefeuvre, who achieved some months ago her master (within the RISK group but for the Ecole des Mines de Alès), has been hired until next summer to continue the research she started on the thermal behavior of rock slope. Finally Francois Noel, from the University of Laval (Québec) has started a PhD thesis on rockfall, with a strong focus on true 3D modelling of propagation.
