Doctoral Network

The goal of the EMByAM-project is to establish a doctoral network of qualified candidates hosted by renowned institutions and industry partners in the field of electrical machines and additive manufacturing in Germany, Czech Republic, United Kingdom and Belgium, for a comprehensive study and solid development of a new generation of electrical machines for key applications. The objectives of our project are conceiving new concepts of electrical machines that benefit from the 3D geometrical freedom of AM, studying the potential, and laying the foundations of multi-material additive manufacturing to enhance the EM performance. The doctoral network consists of:
