Digital Core Facilities

Mines Saint-Étienne’s digital platforms bring together environments and resources dedicated to computation, modeling, simulation, and data exploitation. They support research, research-based training, and collaborations, by enabling the exploration of complex systems, testing hypotheses, evaluating scenarios, and guiding decision-making based on models and evidence.

This page provides an entry point by major facilities. Each platform has a dedicated page detailing its uses, methods, access procedures, and associated contacts.

Role of Digital Platforms

The digital platforms meet a central requirement: to produce robust and actionable understanding when experimentation alone is insufficient or needs to be complemented. They notably enable:

• modeling (conceptual, mathematical, data-driven);
• simulation and scenario analysis;
• optimization and decision support;
• data analysis and machine learning;
• reproducibility (traceability of models, parameters, datasets).
