Abstract: Laser bioprinting is a very promising technique that has demonstrated an outstanding cell viability. With an appropriate process parameterization single cell printing is possible with high spatial accuracy. In this seminar, current developments at Laser center UPM in the

Abstract: Functional polymer composites are applied in various fields in industry and daily lives. To overcome the main weakness of polymer materials, the high sensitivity to fire and other high temperature sources, flame retardancy is requested to the polymer composites.

Abstract: The fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are gaining increasing popularity due to their high strength to weight ratio, weight reduction properties. However, the heat/fire vulnerability of polymer-bsased tructural composites brings abrupt mechanical properties reduction with heat, smoke, toxic release, and

ABSTRACT: This First Year Assesment is focused on the development of biodegradable self-feinforced composites to be used in biomedical applications. Self-reinforced composites are considered a new class of composites in which a single type of polymer (or family) acts as

Within the framework of the different initiatives of the IMDEA Materials´ Industrial Advisory Board (IAB), we are pleased to invite you to the talk of Jaime Fernández Castañeda, Head of Research and Technology of ITP Aero. The talk, entitled “The

The PhD Defense will take place the 15th of October, at 11:00 am in the “Sala de Grados, modulo 8, Facultad de Ciencias” of the Autonomous University of Madrid. The dissertation is entitled “Nanoscale engineered electrode materials for high performance

On Friday, 4th of October, Jorge Valilla will present his FYA entitled “Physical and thermodynamic simulation of Functionally Graded Materials”. It will be a fully remote (zoom) event, at 4:30 pm: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86733563907  Abstract: With the up and coming interest for additive manufacturing (AM) of

Abstract: Catalysts design has been one of the most relevant issues for the hydrogen economy during decades, especially for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). These catalytic processes are controlled by the electronic structure of

Abstract: High entropy alloys (HEAs) have recently garnered significant research attention due to the variety of properties they offer, including high strength, fracture resistance, thermal stability, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and irradiation resistance. When it comes to processing of HEAs,

Abstract: The particular research interest of the speaker is the design and development of well-defined nanostructured materials and studying their structure-activity relationships for sustainable energy related catalytic transformations. After a brief introduction, the focus of the first part of the

The defense will be carried out online on Tuesday, September 7th, 2021, at 12:00 pm. It was advised by Prof. Vinodkumar Etacheri.

Abstract: The work presented is the result of a year studying the growth of inorganic nanowires by floating catalyst chemical vapour deposition (FCCVD) with the objective of applying this technique to the synthesis of metal oxide nanowires. The differences between
