Projects in Composites

InnoMatSyn supports the coordination and mobilisation of stakeholders in innovative advanced materials at national and regional level, promoting synergy and complementarity. It builds on existing regional smart specialisations to strengthen cooperation within Europe.

The project focuses on improving production efficiency in the automotive industry by using graphene-reinforced copper electrodes for spot welding, which reduces maintenance costs and increases sustainability. With links to the competitiveness of Swedish industry and UN Agenda 2030 goals, it contrib…

Nanoparticle platforms for the delivery of RNA adjuvant and mRNA vaccines offer huge potential for innovation in vaccine technology and drug delivery. One of the benefits is the ability of nanoparticles to protect fragile RNA molecules from degradation by nucleases in the body, increasing the stabi…

UPBEAT will create methods to identify, quantify, and manage uncertainties for reliable design and manufacturing. Multiscale simulations will help understand defects, singularities, and distortions during assembly.

ZEvRA will demonstrate a harmonized circularity methodology that allows for interchangeability and replicability throughout Europe. The methodology and manufacturing technologies will be supported by digital tools and validated on a full circular car, integrating 8 prototype components covering 84%…

IMMUNE, advanced FILAVA-based materials for Personal Protection Equipment & hard-components for EU Military.

The project aims to develop, manufacture, and test an advanced outlet guide vane for the next generation of aeroengines from GKN.

In ALPH, new coating and forming methods are devloped to enable the use of aluminum as bipolar plate material for High Temperature Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (HT-PEMFCs). The lightweight metal combined with the higher temperatures enable lighter fuel cells with a simple cooling system …

The world's population is increasing and with it comes the need for smart and safe medical implants. The project will further develop unique processes and equipment to contribute to faster and better healing.

This project aims to establish a primary realisation of ac resistance at RISE through ac measurements of the quantum Hall effect (QHE) in graphene. This will lead to a significantly reduced measurement uncertainty for ac resistance and can potentially lead to an improved measurement uncertainty f…

To develop sustainable products and processes, we need a deep understanding of the internal structure of materials. With advanced synchrotron- and lab-based X-ray tomography, we can examine materials in 3D down to the microscopic level—without destroying them. This also makes it possible to study h…

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a new technology, which is identified as particularly interesting for small modular reactors (SMRs). The use of AM in SMR opens up completely new possibilities with respect to component design, manufacturing lead times and availability of spare parts.

HERCULES project aims to enable the storage of industrial heat for a wide temperature range, with a focus on high temperatures, via a concept to use renewable electricity production and excess heat from the industrial processes.

AMTVINE is a framework for several work packages targeting verification of additively manufactured stainless steels and coated claddings during normal operation in light water reactors (LWRs). The project includes a unique examination and testing of novel fuel materials after operation in LWRs.

CIRCUMET aims at creating a comprehensive joint effort for developing 80-90 credits courses in advanced level on the topic of climate action in the metal component manufacturing industry. The project is a collaboration between Jönköping University, Chalmers, University West, RISE and several indust…
