Société d'Exploitation des Matériels Martin-Baker (SEM MB) was established in 1959 in joint ownership with SNECMA. It has 37 employees and has manufactured over 6000 Martin-Baker ejection seats for French produced aircraft. More than 600 aircrew lives were saved, so far. SEM MB offer a comprehensive range of product support hardware and services in France and abroad.
Institut de Médecine Aérospatiale du Service de Santé des Armées (IMASSA) is the institute of aeronautical medicine of French Army. The IMASSA's ancestor was created in 1945 with the Centre d'Etudes de Biologie Aéronautique (CEBA). The aerospace medicine of defense consists in five fields of skills with medicine in operational units, hospital medicine, expertise medicine, training and research. Areas of research are cognitive sciences, aeronautical physiology and performance, sensorial physiology and flying safety.
ENSAM BioMechanics Laboratory (LBM) was created in 1988 and was labeled by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique(CNRS) in 1997. The LBM research fields are oriented towards the analysis of musculo-squelettal systems, in vivo explorations, experimental analysis and numerical simulations, particularly in spine. The spine biomechanics is a one of expertise part of the LBM.
