Theory and Spectroscopy of Molecules and Materials (TSM²) University of Antwerp

Responsible
TSM2 is a leading group in spectroscopy and theory. From the experimental side the group has expertise in a unique set of advanced optical spectroscopic and magnetic resonance techniques, including Infrared and UV-visible Absorption, Vibrational and Electronic Circular Dichroism, Raman, Raman Optical Activity, and multi-frequency continuous-wave and pulsed Electron Paramagnetic Resonance instruments. From the theory side the group has deep ...

Energy and Materials in Infrastructure and Buildings University of Antwerp

Responsible
The built environment is the result of a chain of materials, companies and people and their interaction. Therefore, defining sustainability in one area affects the definition in other parts of this chain. This conceptual challenge is addressed in the research on sustainability assessments. In order to be able to bring our findings into practice, novel optimization strategies for the design, operation and maintenance of several (sub-)systems are ...

Structural Composites and Alloys, Integrity and Nondestructive Testing KU Leuven

Its activities include:

  • Analysing and modelling of microstructure and texture evolution during plastic deformation
  • Deriving physics-based constitutive laws for their mechanical behaviour
  • Developing dedicated characterisation methods for their complex microstructures
  • Participating in the development of innovative deformation processes

Hypertension and Cardiovascular Epidemiology KU Leuven

Responsible

The Research Unit Hypertension and Cardiovascular Epidemiology (HCVE) coordinated influential clinical trials, published in top-ranking journals, such as the Systolic Hypertension in Europe Trial (Syst-Eur), the Ambulatory blood Pressure monitoring and Treatment of Hypertension trial (APTH) and the Treatment of hypertension based on Home or Office blood Pressure trial (THOP). HCVE led the Data Safety and Monitoring Board of large clinical ...

Neurochemistry and behaviour University of Antwerp

Research at the Rodent Behavioural Research Unit: The Rodent Behavioural Research Unit at the Laboratory of Neurochemistry & Behaviour holds a considerable expertise in the field of behavioural phenotyping of (transgenic) rodent models for human neurological conditions. Behavioural phenotyping is crucially based upon test batteries of behavioural paradigms assessing different brain and behaviour functions. The Research Unit is fully equipped ...

Operations Research and Statistics Research Group (ORSTAT) (main work address Leuven) KU Leuven

In operations research, a challenging research area is combinatorial optimization. Next to exact methods such as branch-and-bound, branch-and-price, also approximation algorithms are studied. Assignment and scheduling problems, winner determination problems and research on client-oriented vehicle routing problems are some of the subjects under study. Further emphasis is placed on machine scheduling, resource-constrained project planning and ...

Quantum Chemistry and Physical Chemistry KU Leuven

Responsible

The methods of quantum mechanics are applied to the study of a wide variety of organic, biological and inorganic compounds. Molecular structure, reactivity and properties are predicted on the basis of theoretical calculations. Due to constant improvements in computer power, and to more and more efficient algorithms, the predictions that can be made are frequently competitive in terms of accuracy with experimental measurements. Computations ...

Sustainable Pavements and Asphalt Research (SuPAR) University of Antwerp

Responsible
SuPAR stands for Sustainable Pavements and Asphalt Research and investigates the scientific-technological gaps to create, develop and demonstrate sustainable pavements and binders in an international context with global and future challenges. The research group's expertise focuses on smart, sustainable and climate-resilient pavements and innovative materials research in particular on asphalt and bituminous binders and their future-proof ...
