CRASHING is an European project funded by the Clean Sky Joint Technology Initiative (JTI-Clean Sky) within the 7th Framework Programme of the European Union. In this ambitious two years research project, the state-of-the-art in multiscale simulation of composites will be transferred to the current

Dr. Roberto Guzman de Villoria, head researcher of the Nano-Architectures and Materials Design group of IMDEA Materials Institute, has been awarded with the prestigious Marie Curie Action (CIG) to carry out a four year research project on Nano-Engineered Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (NFRP). See NFRP

A consortium of European universities, research centres and companies, led by IMDEA Materials Institute, is working on the production of new, more efficient hybrids composed of nanocarbons (e.g. graphene) and inorganics (metal oxides) that can produce hydrogen by water splitting using sunlight.
