A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
In order to compare sports performance of athletes using different sports equipment, the laboratory provides biomechanical, bioenergetic and physiological assessment during sports movements such as running and walking. Available instrumentation...
The research has led to the development of high thermal conductivity screeds, able to optimize the performance of underfloor heating systems. The increased thermal conductivity fosters the heat transfer from screed to internal environment in terms of...
Thermocert
The researches activity has led to the development of a type of infill masonry blocks with high thermal-hygrometric performance, differentiated for thickness, internal layout and admixture, in order to ensure different performances as needed. Blocks...
Innovative concrete elements realized by dry pressing method, constituted by secondary raw materials up to 80% by weight. The elements, with dimensions of about 250 mm x 250 mm, are suitable for applications in traditional walls or ventilated facades...
The use of three-dimensional supports (scaffolds) as a guide to cellular growth in culture, fosters considerable hopes in the field of regenerative medicine. The electrospinning technology makes it possible to produce nanofibrous scaffolds able to...
In innovative-design automatic machines, the motion laws of the end-effectors (EEs) may be varied by programming motion profiles imposed by electrical drives. However, EEs normally have one degree of freedom only and cannot change the type of...
