Sustainable and Innovative Materials for Batteries: the ambition is to bundle knowhow and effort to create a local battery ecosystem, which enables value creation and jobs in Flanders by the time generation 4 batteries (all solid-state, ASSB) break through.
Recycling of ‘Materials from solid and liquid industrial process Residues’. The aim is at creating and demonstrating an operational, flexible toolbox to recover metals and valorize residual matrix into building materials.
Material durability and modelling of the loading of metals in an environment causing degradation (corrosion, abrasion, fatigue).
MacroModelMat: Macro-level predictive modeling, design and optimization of advanced light weight material systems.
Looking at soft/hard matter composites to establish a knowledge base for an intelligent design of functional polymer-based composites.
The performance of Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes of STRuctural Engineering materials strongly depends on optimal printing material properties and printing parameters, supported by specifically developed monitoring and simulating software tools.
