General information

Name of the project: Mechanics of prospective bulk nanomaterials for innovative engineering applications

Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development Priority Level: а


Goals and objectives

Research directions: Mechanics of prospective bulk nanomaterials: fundamental basics and engineering applications

Project objective: Developing physics and mechanics of nanomaterials, developing scientific principles of production of three-dimensional nanomaterials with ultra-high qualities, as well as their innovative applications in engineering, electronics and medicine


The practical value of the study

  • We have created efficient theoretical models of plastic deformation and breakdown of three-dimensional nanomaterials. Principles of nanostructures design have been proposed that allow for production of nanomaterials that demonstrate the effect of «superstrength» and show signs of superplasticity even at room temperature.
  • We have researched correlation between mechanical and functional characteristics of three-dimensional nanomaterials based on titanium and its alloys intended for producing medical next generation implants and their granular structure.
  • Our researchers have developed a new approach to enhancing mechanical and operational qualities of aluminum-based conducting materials by forming restricted nanostructure states using methods of highly intensive plastic deformation.
  • We have produced experimental samples of three-dimensional nanomaterials based on aluminum, copper, and titanium that demonstrate higher multifunctional properties that are rather amiable for innovative applications in technology and medicine.
