BAY-ENG Engineering Division’s most important competences and activities are: research and development of structural /functional materials/coatings, and research of production methods and properties of metallic/non-metallic materials. The Division’s work is a combination of two areas (material sciences and material technologies) and it has an outstanding experience in nanotechnology, metals, ceramics and composites, crystalline and amorphous materials and surface coatings development. In addition, we deal with the applicability of these technologies by the production of a specific product or component, and also with related numerical modelling and material testing.
