Research in Materials

Research in the field of materials at EUSS ranges from basic research on fundamental properties to the development of new materials and devices for engineering applications:

 

• High Tc superconducting tapes for energy applications and supercapacitors for efficient energy storage using biocompatible and non-toxic materials.
• Identical nano-magnetic systems, at the limit of miniaturisation, can be reproducibly synthesised and self-organised on surfaces, a prerequisite for device fabrication.
• Hybrid supercapacitors for electrical energy storage based on sustainable materials.  
• Bio-superfícies that interact with biological systems to improve the integration of oral biomaterials and avoid infections.
• Biomechanical studies in dentistry, implantology and the behaviour of biological systems.
• Numerical study of active flow control methods using fluidic oscillators.
• Study of numerical models of cavitation and mesh deformation to apply them to the study of external gear hydraulic pumps.
