Abstract: The moiré effect is an interference phenomenon that occurs when two regular geometric arrangements are superimposed, resulting in large-scale fringe patterns that become particularly prominent at acute angles. These arrangements produce waves with noticeable moiré wavelengths, a characteristic extensively
Abstract: Understanding how cells sense and respond to mechanical cues is a central challenge in mechanobiology, yet current experimental platforms offer limited control over dynamic and spatially heterogeneous mechanical environments. In this talk, I will introduce our work at the
Abstract: Trillions of dollars of polymer products, such as wires and cables, hydrogels, tires, heat shrinkable films, wood plastic for floor, tubes, etching, disinfection, harm removal, 3D printing, and coating etc. have been recreated by electron beam (EB) technology every
The PhD defence will take place on Aula 31, first floor, at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. How to get there: Campus, Calle del Prof. Aranguren, 3, 28040 Madrid. The dissertation is titled “Fire-safe lithium-ion batteries: material, assessment, and mechanism”.
Abstract: The first part of the talk will be on the challenges and the potential solutions of titanium (Ti)-based alloy processing through Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing. AM, which allows the realisation of a metallic component with
Abstract: Since the advent of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, mRNA has become one of the most promising nucleic acid therapeutics. However, a major challenge now is how to deliver mRNA to targeting cells effectively and increase mRNA expression yield but de-risk
Abstract: Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) alloys represent a promising class of materials for next-generation biomedical implants, particularly endoluminal devices. Their major limitation, however, lies in the difficulty of controlling corrosion in the aggressive physiological environment, where chloride-rich solutions promote rapid dissolution
Abstract: “Additive manufacturing processes are predominantly governed by complex thermomechanical interactions that critically influence the mechanical properties and the quality of the final product. This study first developed a mathematical framework of general small-strain thermo-mechanics that can incorporate an arbitrary

Abstract: The talk will explore the key challenges in the design and development of drug delivery systems aimed at targeted disease treatment. Special emphasis will be placed on strategies for crossing biological barriers, with a focus on targeting the brain, while also
Abstract: The development of new and novel materials is critical for driving innovations in the next generation of devices and systems for applications in nanoelectronics, energy conversion and storage, and quantum computing. As the limitations of silicon-based technologies become increasingly
Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM), particularly laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), has revolutionized the fabrication of high-performance metal components for aerospace by enabling more complex geometries to be produced with superior mechanical properties and minimal material waste [1-5]. High-strength Ni-based superalloys
The PhD defence will take place in Sala 3.S01.08, Edificio Biblioteca Rey Pastor, Universidad Carlos III – Campus de Leganés. It has been advised by Director: Dr. María Teresa Pérez Prado and Academic Tutor: Prof. Mónica Campos Gómez. Here is
Abstract: The presence of minor grain boundary solutes such as boron and zirconium can have significant consequences for the production of superalloys using additive manufacturing methods. On the one hand, their presence in the bulk chemistry is crucial for achieving
Abstract: Optimizing the performance of engineering alloys during manufacturing and service conditions requires a keen understanding of their microstructure evolution under applied temperature and load. It is thus a challenging task, because under the influence of an external load and/or
