Divisions

The Division of Surface Engineering has successfully developed unconventional methods for surface modification of materials, including producing multi-compound and composite surface layers with nanocrystalline structure.

The current development of “non-metallic” materials makes it necessary to expand research on ceramic materials and polymers.

The research area of the Division of Structural and Functional Materials focuses on designing and characterization of metallic and non-metallic structural and functional materials.

Research carried out in the Division of Materials Design focuses on the relationship between the structure and properties of materials in the context of microstructure optimization, control of properties, designing and manufacturing new materials, as well as operational degradation of materials.
