Experimental-Theoretical-Numerical Studies on the Fracture in Ceramic Materials by Thermal Shock – T-shock
Because of their favourable properties at high temperature, as well as in corrosive and erosive environments, ceramic materials are finding ever wider applications in industrial and many other fields. Because of their inherent brittleness and combination of other pertinent properties, ceramic materi
Propagation of waves in complex media – ProCoMedia
To study the effects of desorder and non linearities on the propagation of waves in different contexts of waves the project is starting experiments in the context of electromagnetism and in the context of water waves none This project aims at the control of wave properties through the control of dis
Flame Retarding Nanoarchitectured Fibers – ArchiFlame
The development of polymer nanocomposites is very significant because of the strong improvement of the final properties and in particular, the reaction to fire of the materials. The objective of ARCHIFLAME project is to develop textile structures composed of polyamide 6 (PA6) nanocomposite fibers w
Microwave dedicated nanostructured ferrite ceramics: from basic research to integrated devices. – MINAFC
MINAFC is a bilateral technological project supported by 5 partners involved in the preparation of magnetic nanopowders (nanoparticles and nansotrutcured particles), their consolidation as nansotructured ceramics using Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) technology, their characterization and the study of
Anaerobic process for the sludge treatment and methane valorisation: multiscale approach – PROMET
Modern anaerobic digestion is receiving a new fillip within the framework of actual energy and environment context, and plays an increasing role for its abilities to further transform organic matter into biogas composed mainly of 50-75% methane, as thereby it also reduces the amount of final sludge
Effect of He, H and their synergy on bcc metal systems of fusion interest: a combined theoretical experimental study – HSynThEx
One of the bottleneck problems for the realization of the nuclear fusion energy is to choose the key materials in a fusion Tokamak as well as the future reactor. The successful development of fusion power plants is dictated by the successful research of suitable component materials able to resist ir
Biomimetic responsive surfaces made of liquid crystalline elastomers: construction and function exploration – CURIE-TSINGHUA
The present project focuses on a soft lithography approach that aims at developing new biomimetic responsive surfaces made of liquid crystalline elastomers. The targeted responsive surfaces should present large and reversible changes in their surface roughness under external stimuli, which, in turn
Growth of Co-based magnetic films by high magnetic field assisted pulsed electrodeposition – COMAGNET
The COMAGNET project is positionned in the following topic developed over several years by each partner laboratory (LACMDTI University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne (France) and Laboratoire EPM at Northeastern University - China): the magnétoscience. The interaction of a magnetic field with a materials
Developing new microfluidic chambers for cancer cell screening – ONCO-SCREEN
The research program presented here is jointly conducted by Singaporean and French partners with strong expertise in biophysics, cancer biology, ultra-sensitive analytical chemistry and microfluidics who wish to implement an integrated microsystem designed to simultaneously quantitate motility and g
Synthesis of the carbon nanotubes/graphene hybrid architectures et their applications in Lithium ion battery and multifunctional composites – Synapp
Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms tightly packed into honeycomb-like structure. It is a basic building unit for graphitic materials of all other dimensionalities. Graphene has high values of Young’s modulus (~1100 GPa), fracture strength (125 GPa), thermal conductivity (~5000 W m-1K-1), mob
Nanotubes in Polymers for Energy Conversion – NAPOLECO
