Resumen: 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

Resumen 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

Resumen: 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

Resumen: 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

Abstract: Nanocomposite materials based on a polymer matrix and nanomaterials (as Graphene Nanoplateletes, 2D clays or Metal Organic Frameworks) acting as additives are an exciting type of materials that bring the opportunity to create plastics with better properties (mechanical, thermal,

La Defensa de Doctorado tendrá lugar a las 12:00h , en el Salón de Grados de la ETSI de Informáticos de la UPM (Campus de Montegancedo, Boadilla). La disertación se titula «Advanced deep Learning technologies for the smart manufacturing of structural

Resumen Honeycomb has fascinated humans for millennia. It is a naturally engineered structure that serves as storage for the bees, a place for the queen to lay eggs, rear their brood, among a multitude of additional functions. Even though honeycomb

Resumen: Titanium alloys are widely employed in aerospace applications owing to superior properties such as a high specific strength and a good corrosion resistance. In particular, the variety of dual phase microstructures obtained through different thermo-mechanical processing routes enables tailoring

Resumen: Functional and structural parts, made so far with metals, have been progressively reengineeredby replacing metallic materials by discontinuous fibre reinforced polymers and continuous fibrereinforced composites. Polymer composites are usually divided into two groups, advanced (orhigh performance) composites and engineering

Abstract: Floating Catalyst Chemical Vapor Deposition (FCCVD) is a method for the synthesis of 1D nanoparticles, i.e., nanotubes and nanowires, in the aerosol phase. Specifically, 1-D nanoparticles grow on the surface of spherical catalyst nanoparticles while floating through a gas

Resumen: Powder Bed Fusion – Laser Beam (PBF-LB) paved the way for developing the next-generation alloys achieving unique properties that could not be guaranteed with the traditional manufacturing routes. The conventional metal alloys utilised for cast and wrought processes did

Resumen: Reconstructing the morphology of aerogels presents significant challenges if 3D visualizations of their mesoporous nanostructure are desired. Available microscopic and tomographic tools find it difficult to probe into all types of aerogels for the purposes of reconstructing their 3D

Resumen: We all are very familiar with graphene and carbon nanotubes and their extraordinary electronic and mechanical properties. Both materials are composed of sp2 carbon atoms; their structures look very similar locally but exhibit different properties due to the way

Resumen: Systems with broken continuous symmetry in ideal lattices cannot be rectified through rearrangement or deformation. Topological metamaterials featuring nontrivial, artificially induced phase transitions have emerged as pivotal constituents for engineering these topological defects, which, until now, have mostly been

La Defensa de Doctorado tendrá lugar a las 10:30 am, en el Aula de Grados (Edificio Padre Soler), Universidad Carlos III de Madrid-Leganés Campus, Madrid. La disertación se titula «Development of Ti-Fe-based powders for laser additive manufacturing of ultrafine lamellar

La Defensa de Doctorado tendrá lugar a las 11:30 am, en el edificio Concepción Arenal, sala 14.0.11, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid – Campus de Getafe. La defensa tendrá una parte pública y otra confidencial. La disertación se titula «Binder

El viernes 29 de septiembre, en el salón de actos de la Residencia de Estudiantes de Madrid, investigadores de los Institutos IMDEA nos contarán qué líneas de investigación y qué proyectos concretos se desarrollan en sus centros, vinculados directamente con
