Smash is a common project between INRIA-Sophia Antipolis–Méditerranée and Aix-Marseille University. Its main topic is related to both the mathematical and numerical modelling of heterogeneous and complex flows in heterogeneous media, such as (inert or reactive) granular materials, interface problems or polluant propagation in urban environments.This project team was previously located at both locations (till 2008) and is now uniquely located at Marseille. While two INRIA members left Smash to join another INRIA project team PUMAS in 2009, two associated professors have been hired at Marseille both in September 2009: Fabien Petitpas and Nicolas Favrie.
