How to join Aussois by train – ALERT Meeting 2024
Dear colleagues,
We are getting close to the start of the ALERT Workshop. A few details about your journey to Aussois:
As last year, the railroad line between Saint Jean de Maurienne and Modane is closed due to a rock slope instabillity. This is why there is no TGV between Paris and Modane.
You can get to Modane by taking a train between Chambéry and Saint Jean de Maurienne and then a bus to Modane.
When you arrive in Modane by bus, there are cabs to call:
– Taxi Haute Maurienne: +33 4.79.20.51.57
– Lionnel transport: +33 6.09.68.39.91
– Gros : +33 6.60.38.01.23
– Mont Taxi: +33 6.60.47.03.06
– Alpes Taxi: +33 6.31.55.82.71
As in previous years, we have organized a direct bus service between Saint Jean de Maurienne (at the bus station) and Aussois on Sunday September 29. It will leave Saint Jean at 16h. Another bus is planned at 19h40.
See you soon in Aussois,
Frédéric COLLIN.

LAST REMINDER – Registration for the ALERT Workshop and School 2024 – Deadline 1 Sept.
Dear ALERT community,
This is the last reminder that the registration for the ALERT Geomaterials Workshop and School 2024 is open! The preliminary programme of the Doctoral School and Workshop is available here.
Please note that the deadline for registration is SEPTEMBER 1st! It won’t be extended so make sure to register!
In the continuity of last year edition, a remote access to the doctoral school is proposed at the same price as the on-site option. However, this remote option only gives access to the passive attending of the presentations, and no questions could be asked.
This year, the ALERT Bureau has once again decided to offer one day of accomodation to:
- all PhD students attending the doctoral school and belonging to an ALERT member institution (in a double room only);
- all retired researchers attending the workshop.
Please read the hints in the registration form! After filling the form and pressing the button “Register”, a window will open to prompt you to save the invoice as a .pdf file. Please save it for your records! You will also get an email with the registration data afterwards. If you are an ALERT member, the corresponding representative of your ALERT institution will receive the registration data too.
Click here to register for the ALERT Workshop and School 2024.
The accommodation in Aussois will be processed in the order of the registrations (see the hints in the registration form). Please note that the number of rooms in the CNRS “Centre Paul Langevin” is limited.
See also hints on how to get to Aussois.
If you need to modify or cancel your registration, please send an email to director@alertgeomaterials.eu, mentioning your invoice number, at least one week before the meeting. Individuals who fail to honor their registration will be required to pay a fee to the hotel covering the cost of both the room reservation and the food services.
Looking forward to meeting you in Aussois!

ALERT Doctoral School 2024
The programme of the 35th ALERT Doctoral School 2024 on “Numerical methods in geomechanics” is now available.
The coordinators of the school are:
Claudio Tamagnini (University of Perugia, Italy)
Lorenzo Sanavia (University of Padua, Italy)
Manuel Pastor (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain)
The main goal of this school is to provide PhD students with a sound knowledge of computational Geomechanics. The School will include lectures on:
- Basic: providing the fundamentals of the numerical techniques used
- Advanced and research: the students will learn special techniques to deal with non linear problems, dynamics, integration of constitutive equations.
- Practical. We believe that practise is fundamental when learning a computational technique. Therefore, we will provide a group of sessions where the students, with the help of instructors, will practise with the finite element code GeHoMadrid.
The detailed programme is available on this .pdf file (subject to change).
The registration to both the workshop and the doctoral school should open in the next week.

GOING TO AUSSOIS BY TRAIN – LAST UPDATE – BUS LOCATION
Dear colleagues,
For those of you coming by train to Aussois this year, we have booked a transportation by bus between the Chambéry station and the Centre Paul-Langevin. Here are the final information:
- Sunday 24/09 at 18:30, a bus will leave the station. There is space for 100 people so don’t worry, you’ll get on the bus!
- Wednesday 27/09 at 18:45, a bus will arrive at the station. It should therefore leave the Centre Paul-Langevin at around 16:45. Of course, the bus will come back to the Centre with the people coming for the doctoral school.
- Saturday 30/09 at 15:00, a bus will arrive at the station. It should therefore leave the Centre Paul-Langevin at around 13:00.
The bus will meet you at the “Gare Routière de Chambéry”, 250m from the Station “Challes-Les-Eaux”. You can see the plan below for more detailed instructions.
We hope this solution suits everyone, see you in Aussois!
