Scientists from the Institute of Thermomechanics participated in research published in the Science magazine


The remarkable properties of shape memory alloys (SMA) that are utilized in a number of useful applications are due to a phase transformation between austenite and martensite. In many situations, the transformation does not proceed homogenously, but in the form of macroscopic transformation bands, i.e. in a highly localized manner.  »»»

Technology Perspectives for Energy Storage

Conference - November 30, 2015, 9.00-18.00, Room 205, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Národní ul., Prague

Technology Perspectives for Energy Storage is a collaborative workshop involving scientists, power industry leaders and government officials to outline the future and role of energy storage in ensuring secure energy and to discuss the promising topics for research into energy storage.

The workshop seeks to present ideas, examples, and projects related to experience with energy storage with a strong emphasis on promoting national awareness and inspiring action towards solving emerging problems. Through this event we hope to present promising research themes and technologies and challenge the attendees to discuss the feasibility of the technologies and trends for energy storage.  »»»
