Optimise the properties of materials of the future by controlling their microstructure, their architecture and the different stages of their lifecycle: development, forming, recycling.
Optimise the properties of materials of the future by controlling their microstructure, their architecture and the different stages of their lifecycle: development, forming, recycling.
To make structures lighter, increaseengine efficiency (and therefore reduceenergy consumption), as well as to improvesafety and comfort etc.
Materials to increasethe service life of power stations, to developnew generation reactors.
New materials and processes to produce cheaper and more efficient photovoltaic cells.
Lighter, solider, corrosion-resistant and biocompatible materials etc.
Selection of materials to meet the challenges of reduction of scales (when the dimensions of the components are similar to the size of the microstructures): limitdielectric leakage, maintain good conductivity performance, forcematerials to coexist in spite of incompatibilities linked to surface energies, manufacturehybrid components etc.
New materials to meet future standards for thermal insulation, sound insulation, temporary energy storage etc.
