How to avoid such scenarios? Thrilled to share that I'll be taking the stage at UTECH Europe, happening 23-25 April 2024, at MECC Maastricht in the Netherlands. My talk will delve into foaming simulation technology—a groundbreaking digital tool poised to revolutionize the development of polyurethane materials. This technology offers invaluable early insights, promising to accelerate time-to-market, reduce costs and materials, and act as an essential predictive instrument during initial design phases. Discover the future of digital polyurethane processing with me at UTECH Europe. Let's explore how we can sidestep common pitfalls in polyurethane material development with our advanced predictive processing simulation technology. Don't miss out on this innovative leap in polyurethane processing! #Covestro #UTECHEurope #PolyurethaneProcessSimulation

Seeing is believing! Christopher Mody, Clinical Director for the Posterior Segment, demonstrates the resolution of the High-Res OCT research device – with stunning detail, clear delineation in the outer and inner retinal structure, and clear visualization of the vasculature. Watch him share a multimodal exam of an AMD patient with a cRORA lesion, where the High-Res OCT uncovers detail not seen before. We invite you to visit our stand #1905 at ARVO to see more examples of the tremendous potential of High-Res OCT for researchers. High-Res OCT is intended for research only and is not for clinical use. UNCOVER MORE: https://lnkd.in/eUcn-xDr   #ARVO2024 #UncoverMore #OCT #AMD #GA #retina

📣 Vote for our university cooperation partner Prof. Fernando Catalano from #USP #EESC Escola de Engenharia de Sao Carlos, Universidade de Sao Paulo for the 🚀 European Inventor Award 2024! ✈ https://lnkd.in/eYhQDhHx Quieter and greener jets now fly overhead thanks to the work of Fernando Catalano and Micael Carmo. Through an industry-research collaboration from #USP and #Embraer, the inventors helped develop a new jet that lowers CO2 emissions up to 25% per passenger and noise footprint by 65% compared to the previous model. #hofuniversity #USP #EESC-USP

The ROLIAC consortium is comprised of 10 highly qualified project partners from six countries, all dedicated to pushing the boundaries of innovation within additive manufacturing for defence. These partners bring diverse backgrounds and perspectives to the table, representing leading institutions and companies known for their innovative research and development efforts.   In the coming time, we will be posting short introduction videos about the consortium partners. The first one on the scene is Danish Technological Institute who is also the project coordinator of ROLIAC.   ROLIAC is an #EDF project funded by the European Union, addressing the topic of "New materials and technologies for additive manufacturing defence applications" by developing and showcasing the potential within "Additive Manufacturing for Lightweight Parts".

𝗜𝘀 𝗕𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗡𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗢𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮? One of the topics that came up at last week’s GERPISA - Le Réseau International de L'Automobile Global Automotive Conference in Bordeaux, France was battery repairability.  Some battery makers, including the European battery consortium, ACC - Automotive Cells Company, are looking at how to repair batteries, something that no one is talking about.  We heard from Philippe Biensan, Chief Technology Officer at ACC, who talked about how they are researching attaching the individual battery cells without glue, so that they can be tested and replaced.  This process could be a game changer in battery life.  #Battery repair may play a part in future US and EU right to repair laws, though no current laws deal with this issue.  Thanks to the GERPISA team, including Tommaso Pardi and Vincent Frigant for the great speakers and panels at last week's conference.  You can see the topics/speakers and get access to presentations at the #GERPISA Global Automotive Conference at https://lnkd.in/gQstp9Ks.

Excited to share my experience from the 20th World Conference on Non-destructive Testing in Incheon, South Korea! I had the honor of presenting our latest research on "Notch-based Strategy for Improving Failure Mode Differentiation in CFRP Specimens Using Acoustic Emission Signals." In our study, we introduced a novel method to distinguish failure modes in CFRP through acoustic emission signals. We conducted tensile tests using cross-ply prepreg specimens, recorded acoustic signals with four piezo Sensors from Vallen Systeme, and applied a semi-circular notch to half of the specimens to reduce stress concentration in the router 90° layers. Our findings indicate that notched specimens can enhance the contrast and clarity in failure mode differentiation. This advancement could significantly improve the reliability of composite material assessments. Special thanks to my colleagues Harutyun Yagdjian, Simon Rommelfanger and Martin Gurka for their invaluable contributions to this research. Together, we continue to push the boundaries of material science at the Leibniz-Institute for Composite Materials. I would also like to thank the german federal ministry for education and research (BMBF) and our project partners from KI4KMU for making this travel possible. Looking forward to more insightful discussions and collaborations in the field of smart composites and non-destructive testing!#NDT #AcousticEmission #CompositeMaterials #CFRP #IVW #MaterialScience #20thWCNDT
