  • Harriet 2.0

    Hero-m has the ambition to provide an inclusive work climate where both women and men with different backgrounds from both academia and industry can contribute with their fullest potential. The efforts towards this goal started with the research and development project Harriet – Applied gender research at Hero-m that was funded by VINNOVA and finalized in June 2013.

  • Materials Design project: AM / Powder Based Materials

    Design of powders for high-performance steel components produced by AM.

  • Materials Design project: Advanced Stainless Steels

    The goal is to avoid precipitation of harmful phases during production and manufacturing, while maintaining corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.

  • Materials Design project: High Strength Steels

    By designing steels with significantly higher strength and toughness than available on the market today, constructions and vehicles can become lighter because less material will be needed.

  • Generic Structure Modelling

    The aim of is to further develop a range of models to predict microstructural evolution with emphasis on their applicability as "Creators" in materials design.

  • Generic Property Modelling

    The aim is to develop micromechanical models that allows for the evaluation of mechanical properties of single and multi-phase steels.

  • Generic Structure Characterization

    The aim is to further build competence and to establish different methodologies using e.g. electron microscopy, atom probe tomography, synchrotron X-rays and neutrons for the characterization of bulk materials, in particular steels and cemented carbides.

  • Generic ab-initio

    The aim is to develop theoretical and computational methods of finite-temperature modelling of crystalline solids, starting from first principles and taking into account the free energy contributions due to vibrational, configurational, electronic, and magnetic degrees of freedom.

  • Generic Calphad

    The aim of the project is to develop models and descriptions for the next generation of thermodynamic databases.

  • Materials Design project: Hard Materials

    This project addresses the next generation of carbide-based systems for high-performance tools used in metal cutting, drilling and rock drilling. In this project the efforts are be directed towards design of hard metals without Co and W.
