Des aimants "verts" pour une voiture électrique plus écologique | Muriel Tyrman | TEDxAgroParisTech

The use of permanent magnets in electric car motors is growing considerably because they reduce noise and wear. Unfortunately, the magnets currently used contain rare earth elements, and their production is highly polluting. Muriel Tyrman proposes high-performance, environmentally friendly alternatives. Talk: "Towards Greener Electric Cars." After obtaining her Master's degree in Physics from Pierre and Marie Curie University, Muriel Tyrman completed a PhD in Physics at Paris-Saclay University. Since then, she has been working as a postdoctoral fellow at the SATIE laboratory (ENS Paris-Saclay) on the topic of finding rare earth-free magnets for the automotive industry, and therefore more "green" components. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
