The PRISMS Framework: An Integrated Predictive Multi-Scale ICME Capability for the Global Materials Community John Allison University of Michigan, Ann Arbor MI The Center for PRedictive Integrated Structural Materials Science (PRISMS) is a major Materials Genome Initiative effort creating a

Abstract Flame retardants are going to be such an important component in future Lithium-based batteries. However, these flame retardants have a major problem: they decrease the conductivity values of electrolytes. During this project we have been trying to use some

ABSTRACT The increasingly demanding environmental and safety goals imposed to the automotive industry have fostered fierce competition to develop new multi-phase steel types that are stronger, tougher, more formable, and fatigue-resistant. Among the various approaches in study, steels processed via

The winner is Miguel Ángel Valdés on his winner project entitled “Ultra-rapid processing of advanced high strength steels”.

  En esta ocasión, smartLIGHITNG y el Instituto IMDEA Materiales, tiene el placer de invitarle a la presentación en absoluta primicia del BioLED, una tecnología que va acaparando premios y reconocimientos por todo el mundo de distintas organizaciones, como la

Abstract: In this study, nanoengineered pseudocapacitive electrodes are developed for superior Na-ion storage. Main aim is to induce defect-driven pseudocapacitive Na-ion storage in insertion and conversion type anodes. Hybrid anatase-bronze TiO2 nanosheets composed of Nanocrystallites of 65% anatase and 35%

ABSTRACT: The susceptibility to delamination is one of the main concerns in fiber reinforced polymer composites (FRPs), while carbon nanotubes (CNT) carry the promise of enhancing this poor out-of-plane mechanical performance. This work reviews the progress to date towards methods

Abstract Conducting redox polymers (CRPs) are composed of a conducting polymer (CP) backbone and redox active functional groups (RGs) and they provide an attractive option as organic matter based electrical energy storage materials. The CP backbone renders the material conductive

ABSTRACT Microbial Electrochemical Tehnologies (MET) are a recent research field related to environmental biotechnology. The main concept for its development is related to the ability of the microorganisms of producing electricity from organic matter degradation, using an insoluble electron acceptor

Abstract Ultrafast heating (UFH) has recently attracted significant attention of steel research community due to its advantages over conventional heat treatment of advanced high-strength steel (AHSS) including very short processing time, reduced energy consumption and low carbon footprint. The UFH

ABSTRACT: Towards High Efficiency Devices- Avoiding Electron Recombination in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Abstract The main objective of this work is to gain a fundamental understanding of the behavior characteristics of a quenched and partitioned (Q&P) steel at high strain rates by employing Split Hopkinson bar testing, drop weight impact testing, electron backscatter

Microstructure informed constitutive models and SPH crystal plasticity modelling approaches Anxin Ma Group of mechanics of materials of IMDEA materials anxin.ma@imdea.org During the deformation of polycrystals, pronounced strain gradients may occur due to mis-orientations and eigen strains of phase transformation.

Abstract The objective of the present project is the development and numerical implemen- tation of constitutive equations for the coupled thermomechanical damage problem in the speci c context of the in nitesimal strain approximation, within the framework of the thermodynamics
