Mechanical properties of ultra light metal and novel cement composites


Project start:01.01.2019
Project end:31.12.2021
Programme:Academic agreement
Institute position in the project:Project co-lead partner
Project leader at the institute:Stanislav Kúdela
The project is aimed on investigation of novel type of composite materials. There are two autonomic project investigation directions. The first one is investigation of ultralight metal matrix composites for space applications (this is complementary research to two previous European Space Agency projects). The second direction is continuation of previous tomographic and micro structural investigation of composite cement and concrete materials related to the improvement of their production technology.
