The “Manche 2021” project is organized around 3 actions: “Integrated and sustainable coastal management,” “Marine resources and aquaculture and “Marine renewable energies.” The context of the operation “Channel 2021-Platforms for the exploitation of marine resources, 2017-2019, is part of the action “Marine renewable energies with the objectives of continuing the establishment of an electromechanical platform for tidal turbines as a modeling and simulation tool (phase 2: energy transformation and storage). This operation is also part of the “Marine resources and aquaculture” action with the objectives of setting up an animal behavior platform and acquiring a nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS for the PROTEOGEN platform of SF ICORE. The purpose of this operation is to acquire the following 3 pieces of equipment: 1- An Electromechanical Platform for the study of the fluid-structure-energy behavior of tidal turbines. It will make it possible to simulate the complete energy generation chain from mechanical capture to the injection of electrical energy into the network. It will also make it possible to address the reliability and lifespan of electrical machines to establish diagnostic and predictive maintenance algorithms for these devices. This platform is part of the strategy of the university in general and of LUSAC in particular to develop tools for decision support and prediction of the production of electrical energy produced by one or more tidal turbine farms.  It will make it possible to validate the modeling and algorithms developed in the field of EMR. 2- A marine animal ethology platform which will make it possible to provide a range of behavioral tests for different marine animal species (cephalopods, fish) as part of integrative studies. 3- A nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS mass spectrometer allowing the high-throughput analysis and identification of peptides and proteins involved in the physiology of animal, plant, or bacterial organisms. This equipment will strengthen the capacities of the PROTEOGEN platform to respond to analysis requests from research units within the framework of regional, national or international partnerships.
