    Brief description of the research aims

    Applied Mechanics research focuses on the analysis of the mechanical behaviour of structural systems and materials, as well as on the improvement of production processes. It focuses on key sectors such as automotive, capital goods, and consumer products, aiming to promote a more efficient, innovative, and sustainable industry by delivering innovative solutions at the forefront of knowledge:

    - New technologies for metal forming.
    - Additive technologies.
    - Predictive solutions.
    - Experimental and numerical characterisation (CFD-DEM-FEA) of powders, erosion and complex systems.
    - Non-contact ultrasonics.
    - Structural and vehicle dynamics.
    - Vibro-acoustic comfort in electric vehicles.
    - Decarbonisation.
    - Consumption and life cycle analysis.
