Politecnico di Milano researchers work on new materials for space engines
These updates are republished press releases and communications from members of the Science|Business Network
The ATLAS project gets underway, its aim being to develop new materials that perform in extreme environmental conditions, enabling important progress in design and construction of space propulsion systems.
ATLAS (Advanced Design of High Entropy Alloys Based Materials for Space Propulsion) is coordinated by the Politecnico di Milano as part of the Horizon 2020-SPACE programme and it has received three million euro in funds. Prof. Mario Guagliano is the project manager.
One of the biggest problems linked to space missions is the need to build systems that will function without failure in extreme environments, at temperatures varying from way below zero to peaks of hundreds of degrees.

ABS Guides Industry on the Use of Additive Manufacturing
ABS has published comprehensive guidance on the application of Additive Manufacturing (AM) in the marine and offshore industries.
The ABS Guide for Additive Manufacturing focuses on two main categories of metal AM processes: Powder Bed Fusion and Directed Energy Deposition. The Guide defines the ABS approval and certification process for AM facilities and AM parts by providing standards for AM design, feedstock material, building processes, inspection and testing. The Guide includes a strong focus on the quality of the materials and of the manufacturing process, both of which are key elements of the ABS process.
