In recent years, considerable attention in surface engineering research has been directed towards superhydrophobic surfaces - surfaces that exhibit extremely high resistance to wetting by water. In this context, new technologies such as femtosecond laser texturing have opened up the possibility to ...

'Corrosion under insulation' (CUI) is one of the most common and most difficult to manage forms of corrosion in the process and chemical industry, with corresponding costs and safety risks. To support research aimed at better management of CUI, in its CorrosieLABS [Corrosion & Insulation Practice ...

The role of a product manager requires a constant balancing of multiple interests and a strategic vision focused on business growth and customer satisfaction. To support product managers and management of software companies, we are organizing the PR_D_CT Day unconference on 23 June 2023, bringing ...

Until recently, Sirris used multi-scale texturing to make surfaces water-repellent. This technique creates superhydrophobic surfaces but is quite time-consuming. That is why we looked for a different solution: the results we obtained with LIPPS ('Laser-Induced Periodic Surface Structures') are ...

Are you interested in adding intelligence, connected services and data-driven applications to your products, but haven’t taken your ideas to a next level? Our next webinar within the WalHub initiative will put you on the right track with insights and a company testimonial.

Do you have huge digital plans for your business? Do you see opportunities to market a great app or a pioneering SaaS platform? You obviously want to make the most these opportunities, but to do so, you first need to get the app or platform built. Finding developers is a challenge in itself, but ...

Measuring is knowing, also when it comes to adding functionalities to surfaces by means of texturing. If you want to get an idea about surface performance, Sirris’ functionality development relies on a number of, sometimes customised, measurement methods, which are verified in turn. In this article ...

Penta, a Eureka cluster on electronic components and systems, has awarded the R&D project SunRISE (Shared IoT Security) with this year’s Innovation Award and by that highlighted the importance of security and privacy ensuring machine learning technologies. The Belgian consortium consisting of Engie ...

Laser surface texturing is increasingly being used as a surface treatment technology because it improves and speeds up treatment, making the process more cost-effective. This development opens the door to more innovative applications, such as those on cutting tools.
