World Energy Storage Conference
12
October

12 October 2022 - 14 October 2022
All Day

Energy storage is a key enabler for the decarbonisation of our energy systems to achieve a Net-Zero future. This joint event aims to provide an inclusive platform for all energy storage researchers and practitioners across academia, industry, government agencies and non-government organisations, to share their work through oral and poster presentation sessions, and to build collaborations through networking.

Workshop: Measuring the Behaviour of Brake Materials More Efficiently (with TriboLab demo)
13
October

13 October 2022
10:00 am

This new technique utilizes small samples of friction materials and tests them under real brake operating conditions. Using the UMT TriboLab HD, it is now possible to test such materials in real-time and easily program industry-standard dynamometer protocols and standards, all while monitoring key parameters such as friction, temperature, sliding speed, and vibration. 

In this webinar, we will describe the technique and demonstrate how well it correlates with tests performed on the full-scale dynamometer following the SAE J2522 standard (known as AK Master).

Royce Training: Practical Cleanroom Skills
27 January 2025 - 31 January 2025    
All Day
This training course will explore basic practices and techniques for cleanroom use. Through a combination of taught lectures, discussion sessions, and practical training participants will gain fundamental skills for working in cleanrooms.
Knowledge of the Nanoscale: Developing AFM Activities for Outreach
29 January 2025 - 30 January 2025    
All Day
This workshop will engage participants in designing and developing outreach activities focused on atomic force microscopes (AFMs). It aims to inspire new materials science communicators, diversify existing outreach in the field, and help audiences explore materials science. The content will include presentations by leaders in outreach and experts in materials characterization. Participants will be challenged to build AFMs for outreach use and develop supporting activities to convey scientific techniques and knowledge to diverse audiences.
