3D printing technologies, new possibilities for customized products and services for TOC There will be first an introduction to the activities of the IBV (Valencia Biomechanics Institute), to then explain the biomechanical bases of additive manufacturing through EBV that led
Abstract Composite materials are a serious competitor for lightweight metals used in the aerospace and automotive industry. Fast production methods like thermo-folding, diaphragm forming or stamping can produce large numbers of CFRP components in a cost efficient way. The weight
Abstract Permeation barrier films are critical to a wide range of applications ranging from food and medical packaging to organic electronics and photovoltaics. For some of these applications, not only low permeation values are required but also flexible and transparent.
Abstract As Additive Manufacturing technologies are being adopted in more and more industries, the focus of research and development is shifting to the materials in use. On the one hand, limited processability of high-performance materials restrict the robustness of the

Short summary of her group Functional Nanoscale Devices for Energy Recovery Group (FINDER) (Instituto de Micro y Nanotecnología) Their research is focused on the optimization of thermoelectric devices via nanostructuration. A thermoelectric device is able to transform temperature differences into
Short bio: Professor Thomas R. Bieler earned a B.A. in Applied Mechanics at University of California at San Diego in 1978 followed by a M.S. In Ceramic Engineering at University of Washington (Seattle) in 1980. He worked for five years at
On March1 16th, the Director and Deputy Director of the Institute gave the awards to the winners of the 2017 edition of the IMDEA Materials Imaging Contest.
On March 6 and 7 we will participate in the VIII Conference with Science in the School, organized by Circulo de Bellas Artes and FUHUMER. Our colleagues Juan Pedro Fernandez, Maria Azurra, Jose Sanchez and Jaime Castro will do their
ABSTRACT Atomic interface structures provide a unique opportunity to design new materials that can provide promising solutions to future technological demands. This talk presents an overview of two diverse areas of activity at the Surface and Nano Engineering Laboratory at
Abstract Platinum-based materials are highly active as the electrocatalysts both in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells, but high cost limits its wide applications. In this talk, the reporter summarized the recent research progress
The PhD Defense will take place on next Tuesday (23rd, January), at 12 noon, in the Sala Verde (first floor) in the Escuela de Ingenieros de Caminos, UPM The link below shows the address of the School: https://www.google.es/maps/place/UPM+-+Escuela+T%C3%A9cnica+Superior+de+Ingenieros+de+Caminos,+Canales+y+Puertos/@40.4467369,-3.7340372,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0xd42283192e73a23:0x17ad49d3b682dcda!8m2!3d40.4467369!4d-3.7318432?hl=en
ABSTRACT Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is extensively used in the production of fibers and films and now increasingly used as container material for soft drink due to its outstanding characteristics of high strength, good flexibility, and thermal stability, but their uses
Abstract Fire hazards including the generation of heat, smoke and toxic vapor, cost a great number of lives and damage properties. Compared with natural polymers, the high flammability and the widespread use of synthetic polymers lead to serious safety and
The defense of the PhD thesis of Mr. Alberto Palomares, entitled “Micromechanics of fully lamellar TiAl alloys: effect of lamellar orientation and width”, supervised by Dr. Jon Molina Aldareguia and Dr. Teresa Pérez Prado, will take place tomorrow Thursday, December 21st
Decentralized Chemical Sensing: From materials to real world applications My group works at the interface of fundamental and applied chemical science and our aim is to solve real problems that human society is facing or will be facing soon. There
Abstract: Recycling of composites by recovering carbon fibres of cured prepregs, and their re-use in hybrid laminates by Andrea Fernández Gorgojo The applications of composite materials are rapidly growing in several sectors. For example, in the aeronautical sector, composites can
