Focal Area Materials

Materials with defined properties are the basis for both highly specialised applications and everyday products. At the Upper Austrian University of Applied Sciences, research is carried out along the entire process chain, from material selection and modification to the finished component. Plastics, composites, metals and surface coatings as well as the non-destructive testing methods 3D X-ray computed tomography (CT) and active thermography are at the centre of the research work.
