Objective
The Project is directed towards a response to a major concern of European manufacturers: to reduce weight of manufactured goods leaving their quality and reliability intact. This concern is especially crucial in aerospace and automotive industries where weight became a major stumbling block on the way of reducing consumption of fuel and air pollution. The research will focus on development of new Mg-based alloys, which will have three-fold reduction in weight compared to Al-based alloys and superior durability. The alloys will have built-in strike damping properties and may be used in seats, steering column, etc. to reduce the car crash impacts.
