For the degree of Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Technology In the current climate crisis, CO2 capture and utilization appears to be essential in achieving the climate targets and promoting the transition towards a society entirely relying on renewable energies. Among the alternatives, CO2 can be utilized as sodium bicarbonate salts, NaHCO3.

What do two ice cubes, a cracked wall and a car accident have in common? Mechanics is made of material but also immaterial movements. This is the case of the propagation of a crack or a solidification front. These movements are carried out without mass.

Pour l'obtention du grade de Docteur en sciences de l'ingénieur et technologie La gazéification est un procédé de conversion thermochimique de la biomasse utilisée dans des applications de production de chaleur et d’électricité. Ce procédé est prometteur dans un environnement ouest africain où les besoins énergétiques sont importants et où le potentiel en biomasse est considérable.

For the degree of Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Technology Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state (without fusion) welding technique involving no filler material.

For the degree of Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Technology (join PhD with UMONS) For more than 3000 years, windmills have been used to harvest energy from the wind. Over the past 30 years, electrical generators and advanced aerodynamics have turned them into the wind turbines we know.

For the degree of Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Technology Embedding particulate reinforcements in aluminum matrices to form aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) is an attractive, alternative and innovative process to enhance the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys. Shape memory alloys (SMA), e.g.

For the degree of Doctor of Engineering Sciences and Technology Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) is an additive manufacturing technique widely used in aerospace and automotive industries which allows the production of complex geometries.

Offshore wind energy is an essential building block for the large-scale energy transition, but it is by nature intermittent and uncertain. Future power systems with a high share of offshore wind energy may therefore face new challenges to ensure a reliable electrical supply.

Slowheat est un projet de recherche conjoint LAB-IPSY-ULB financé par le programme Cocréation d’Innoviris. Le projet entre dans sa troisième et dernière année.
