Centrale Nantes HYDROcontest 2016 - Construire les bateaux de demain

<p> <strong><u>         </u></strong>What is HYDROcontest ?</p> <p>  </p> <p> From July 24 to July 31, 2016, 26 teams composed of engineering students from all over the world are meeting on Lake Leman (Switzerland) for <a href="http://www.hydrocontest.org/fr/">HYDROcontest</a>. This first international competition is challenging these future engineers to conceive boats, taking into account the issues of energy efficiency and maritime transport.</p> <p>  </p> <p> This year, the team <i>Centrale Nantes HYDROcontest</i><i> </i>is prepared for a new challenge ! After having reached the quarter finals in both categories, we are determined to win.</p> <p>  </p> <p> For the 2016 edition, we are 9 2nd and 3rd year students at Centrale Nantes, working together on the design and building of the boats.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Nanteshydroboats-1465560409" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/328692/NantesHydroBoats-1465560409.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong><u>         </u> </strong>From design to competition</p> <p>  </p> <p> The rules concerning the design and building of both boats leave us a large degree of freedom. The difference between the boats will without any doubt lie with the concept, the design, the materials and the construction process The only elements which are obligatory and cannot be altered are the weights, the motor and the battery.</p> <p>  </p> <p> The team <i>Centrale Nantes HYDROcontest</i><i> </i>is working on two boats :</p> <p>  </p> <p> - <strong>The heavy boat</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Lourd-1467962538" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/336789/lourd-1467962538.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p> - <strong>Private Boat</strong><img alt="L_ger_caract_ristiques-1467962707" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/336790/l_ger_caract_ristiques-1467962707.png"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p>
