Description succincte (Anglais)	Bioinspired performance tailoring of alpine skis
Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)	We propose to evaluate the feasibility of introducing progressive stiffening in an alpine ski, as a function of deformation in bending and shear. The change in compliance would provide the possibility to reversibly evolve from a high forgiveness and comfortable ski to a high performance but less forgiving ski. The method to achieve this is based on the implementation of an interlocking structure, inspired from that of turtle shells.
