Abstract: The high standards and requirements demanded in high-speed machining (HSM) applications some examples are the precise manufacturing of microelectronics circuits or biomedical devices – comprise a delicate control of the tool preparation as well as coatings design and finish,

Abstract: The applications of Li-ion batteries (LIBs) vary widely from the transport sector (viz. electric vehicles, aircraft, robotics, drones, etc.) to battery energy storage technologies supporting and strengthening the power grid to mitigate the problem of intermittency of renewable energy

Abstract: Clear aligner treatment (CAT) is a new technique to treat malocclusions which ison current expansion along the globe and also gaining importance in oral medicine. Oral diseases are the third most expensive medical treatment in accumulatednumbers yearly in Europe,

Abstract A general theory of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) is presented for an arbitrary geometric setup consisting of two electrodes, a fixed dielectric, and a moving dielectric [1]. The two dielectric materials have opposite charges. Optimization of power output is computed

The PhD defence will take place in the José Echegaray room of the E.T.S de Ingenieros de Caminios (C/Profesor Aranguren 3), 28040 Madrid.

The PhD defence will take place in Aula -1.A.02- Library (Puerta de Toledo Campus) of the Carlos III University of Madrid (UC3M). How to get there: https://www.uc3m.es/about-uc3m/how-to-get-here/madrid-puerta-de-toledo The dissertation is titled “Medical Grade Bioabsorbable Composites for the 3D Printing of

The 2nd International Seminar on Modelling, Simulation, and Machine Learning for the Rapid Development of Porous Materials aims to bring together young and senior scientists, comprising different scientific communities engaged in the fundamental understanding of porous materials.

The PhD defence will take place at UPM Caminos, Canales y Puertos. The dissertation is titled “Highly Sensitive Smart Sensor for Early Fire Warning Detection” It was supervised by Prof. De-Yi Wang, and the committee chair is Prof. Carlos González.

Abstract: The current hydrogen economy is in a phase marked by the low rate and efficiency of the hydrogenproduction from water and the energy generation by hydrogen oxidation into water. This first yearassessment explores the possibility of exploiting the change

Abstract The Interrelated aspects of thermo-mechanical behavior with a specific focus on microstructural characteristics and defects, such as partial and total dislocations densities and grain-boundaries (GBs) that span the nano to the micro, and how these characteristics affect failure modes,

Abstract: Abstract: The delicate alveolar structure of the mammalian lungs is stabilized against forces tending to its collapse, thanks to the coating of a complex lipid-protein network assembled by the pulmonary surfactant system. This material, assembled and secreted by type

Abstract: The equiatomic CoCrFeMnNi high entropy alloy (HEA) and its derivatives have attracted attention fromscientific community due to their mechanical properties, also at cryogenic conditions. Extensivemechanical twinning is mainly responsible for their outstanding mechanical response under cryogenictemperatures, e.g. increase in

Abstract: The on-going energy crisis demands extensive research into new alternatives for enhancing the energy efficiency in electric motors. As a probable solution to this, soft magnetic materials (SMM) portray excellent properties with high saturation magnetisation (JS) and low coercivity

Abstract: Modern technology demands the development of strong and flame-resistant multifunctional thermoplastic-based nanocomposites that are also compatible with three-dimensional (3D) printing, as this method has become a standard production process in essential industries. This study tackles the two challenging steps

Abstract Modeling the damage and fracture of materials has been a recurrent topic in solid mechanics and materials engineering in the last century. In the present there is a strong interest to extend these studies to model complex multiphysical problems

Abstract: Animals such as geckos can climb vertical walls or even move about upside down on ceilings. Such locomotion requires strong and ubiquitous adhesion between their feet and various surfaces, yet easy detachment when needed. However, current smart adhesives made

Abstract: The active materials used in current LIBs fall short in energetic terms due to their limited uptake of Li, so further development of these materials is needed. In contrast to the insertion materials usually used in the LIBs, alloy
