October

12 October 2022 - 14 October 2022
All Day

Energy storage is a key enabler for the decarbonisation of our energy systems to achieve a Net-Zero future. This joint event aims to provide an inclusive platform for all energy storage researchers and practitioners across academia, industry, government agencies and non-government organisations, to share their work through oral and poster presentation sessions, and to build collaborations through networking.

Workshop: Measuring the Behaviour of Brake Materials More Efficiently (with TriboLab demo)
13
October

13 October 2022
10:00 am

This new technique utilizes small samples of friction materials and tests them under real brake operating conditions. Using the UMT TriboLab HD, it is now possible to test such materials in real-time and easily program industry-standard dynamometer protocols and standards, all while monitoring key parameters such as friction, temperature, sliding speed, and vibration. 

In this webinar, we will describe the technique and demonstrate how well it correlates with tests performed on the full-scale dynamometer following the SAE J2522 standard (known as AK Master).

Decarb Connect UK
27 February 2024 - 29 February 2024    
All Day
This three-day programme is comprised of site tours, case studies, roundtables and targeted discussions. The agenda will follow the Chatham House Rule; all participants by virtue of participation agree that anyone who comes to a meeting is free to use information from the discussion but is not allowed to name the person who made any particular comment. This increases openness of discussion.
Commercialisation for Materials Scientists
01 March 2024    
10:00 am - 5:00 pm
This workshop will engage the next generation of materials science researchers and future entrepreneurs. It will equip participants with knowledge of the commercialisation process and steps needed to successfully progress a new material from research to product.
Futurebuild 2024
05 March 2024 - 07 March 2024    
All Day
As the built environment’s premier event, Futurebuild provides the stage for inspiring ideas, innovative solutions and knowledge sharing to drive sustainable construction and help us reach our goal of net zero Royce will exhibit at Futurebuild 2024 alongside the Foundation Industries Sustainability Consortium (FISC).
Royce Training: Thin-Film Deposition
06 March 2024 - 08 March 2024    
All Day
This course will introduce thin-film deposition and analytical techniques for characterising thin films. The content explores physical vapour deposition techniques, and will cover deposition parameters, structural characterisation and the electrical behaviour of a simple device. Practical training will cover basic lab skills for working with the ultra-high-vacuum environments needed for high quality thin film growth. Through use of the Royce Deposition System participants will gain hands-on experience of, sputtering, molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Each participant will grow and characterise their own samples, including taking measurements of film thickness and surface morphology. The course will also include a short session on cleanroom fabrication to make a microscale wire from a thin film.
