Advanced Modeling of Large Radius Air Bending KU Leuven
Air bending remains one of the most popular forming techniques within the sheet metal manufacturing domain. This forming process is known for its flexibility since one pair of tooling suffices for a wide range of forming angles. The traditional approach of conventional or small radius air bending is described by a 3-point bending model. However, small radius bending is not technically feasible for high strength steels. High strength steels ...

Laser supporting incremental forming KU Leuven
Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is a flexible manufacturing process in which sheet metal blanks are gradually formed into sculptured, 3D parts by means of a generic tool styluIntelligent control of this tool allows to incrementally form the sheet in a layer by layer fashion. The process thus does not require any dedicated tooling, making it a versatile solution for prototyping and small series production.In order to allow processing ...
Modular Development Plan of the Pan-European Transmission System 2050. KU Leuven
Eight Transmission System Operators (BE, CZ, FR, DE, IT, PT, CH, PL) and ENTSO-E, together with 4 associations of technology manufacturers, and 16 RTD performers propose a 3-year R&D project to develop and to apply a methodology for the long-term development of the Pan-European transmission network. The project aims at delivering a top-down methodology to support the planning from 2020 to 2050. First, it implements a set of future power ...
Perpetual - Personalized Products Emering from Talored User - Adaptin Logic KU Leuven
Ambition of the PERPETUAL project is to develop methods and algorithms that achieve automatic, user‐oriented functional demand profiling in support of enhanced product serviceperformance, while requiring less resources through an increased efficiency as a result of welloptimized control policies for a wide range of applications.
The effect of structural build-up of plant-based food emulsions on carotenoid bio-accessibility and in vitro digestion of fat. KU Leuven
Vegetable-based foods such as soups and sauces, are good sources of water, fibers (e.g. pectin), micronutrients and lipids. In foods, lipids are often considered as negative since an excess uptake of lipids is linked with a risk of obesity. It should however be noted that lipids are important macronutrients providing energy and essential fatty acids and facilitating the uptake of lipid soluble micronutrients such as carotenoids.
