The ACHIEF project will develop novel efficient materials-based solutions enabling to meet extreme and fluctuating conditions currently employed in Energy Intensive Industries (EII) through the utilization of an Artificial Intelligent combined Modelling approach for the design of innovative materials and protective coatings with improved high-temperature strength, creep and corrosion characteristics. The objectives of the project are:
- Develop innovative high-temperature strength and creep resistance materials based on novel High-Entropy Alloys (HEAs) for improved performance of EII,
- Develop novel protective Polymer Derived Ceramic coatings with improved high-temperature erosion and corrosion resistance,
- Develop high performance coatings based on HEA-nanocomposites with improved high-temperature wear and thermal fatigue resistance,
- Design and develop a new high Chromium steel grade with creep resistance 15% improved and - Implement advanced high-performance temperature sensors based on Fiber Bragg Grating technology and corrosion sensors based on Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy technique.
AIMEN main role deals with the application of Artificial Intelligence for designing and selecting most suitable HEAs to be manufactured and applied using laser cladding and laser metal deposition. Also, will collaborate with FBGs and corrosion sensors developing and implementing for embedding in components working under high temperature conditions.
