They are joining forces with 11 partners from 7 different countries to accelerate the sustainable development and production of corrosion protection technologies. Read more 18 May 2021 ‘Cohesion researchers’ unravel the mystery of hydrogen effects on materials Steel pipelines can become brittle due to hydrogen and can therefore break. Fascinated by this urgent problem, Carey Walters (MTT), Othon Moultos (P&E) and Poulumi Dey (MSE) joined forces and turned to the cohesion programme to work on this together. Read more 09 March 2021 Liselore Tissen: new ‘Face of Science’ Today, the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) announced the twelve new ‘Faces of Science’. Liselore Tissen, PhD student at the department of Materials Science and Engineering and part-time at Leiden University, is one of the 12 new faces. Read more 01 February 2021 TU Delft and ASML map non-visible materials at nanoscale with ultrasound The increasing miniaturisation of electrical components in industry requires a new imaging technique at the nanometre scale. Delft researcher Gerard Verbiest and ASML have developed a first proof-of-concept method that they now plan to further develop. Read more 08 December 2020 Miguel Bessa and Richard Norte have been awarded the Interstellar Initiatives Grant Miguel Bessa and Richard Norte have been awarded an Interstellar Initiatives Grant from the Limitless Space Institute. The award is for their research ‘Origami Photonic Crystal Sails with Machine Learning’. Their research focus is about the development and demonstration of nanoscale origami photonic crystal membranes using data-driven machine learning.
