Research and innovation

Turning magnetic response into materials understanding.

Our research connects electromagnetic behaviour with microstructure, texture, temperature and processing. The goal is measurement methods with a credible path to non-destructive use.

01 / Formability

Steel texture, anisotropy and r-value

Directional electromagnetic measurements linked with crystallographic texture and sheet-forming behaviour.

02 / Process monitoring

Thermally driven microstructural change

Electromagnetic monitoring of recovery, recrystallisation and phase transformation during controlled thermal cycles.

03 / Joining

Weld and interface assessment

Exploring electromagnetic sensitivity to weld geometry, local metallurgical change and process variation.

04 / Instrumentation

Measurement systems and modelling

Integrating multi-frequency sensing, controlled fixtures, reference evidence and magnetic simulation.

Research method

Correlation is tested, not assumed.

Electromagnetic response depends on several interacting factors. Sound development compares the signal with suitable reference measurements and checks the influence of geometry, temperature, conductivity, permeability and microstructure.
