List of projects approved by the MecaTech Cluster since the end of 2006:
The aims of the HAVCOAT project are to optimize powerful yet ecological amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) surface coatings and to develop tools for producing, characterizing, and validating these surface treatments. Namur University (UNamur) has developed an a-C:H surface coating specially designed for engine bearings; it reduces wear and the friction coefficients of these parts but …
The aim of the HIPAC project is to develop new high-temperature encapsulation technologies for power electronic components, e.g., welding or fritting chips or substrates and silicone gels to protect chips. The components will be based on the new high-speed semiconductor arrays of silica carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), which function at extreme temperatures with …
HOSOMI is a modular industrialized construction system that includes innovative component to serve sustainable development. It is a modular building concept that revolves around a frame that makes it possible to build rooms of various shapes and sizes (total flexibility) and meet each client’s architectural, esthetic, functional, energy-use, acoustic, and other requirements. The modules are …
