    Working on the generalization of the fundamental group to higher dimensions, the main structures are crossed modules, particularly through explicit computations. The present paper explains how the computation of induced crossed modules allows the computation of certain homotopy 2-types (like second homotopy groups) and gives many examples and applications.
