The OptiQPAP members continue to actively disseminate the outcomes of the project. The researchers from TU DELFT have participated at the EUROMAT 2019 Congress in Stockholm on September 1-5, 2019. The EUROMAT is the premier international congress in the field of materials science and technology in Europe. Prof. Jilt Sietsma has given a talk on the analysis of deformation induced formation of martensite in a quenched and partitioned steel. Pablo Garcia Chao has presented a poster focused on the early fatigue crack propagation during cycling loading of a grade developed within frame of the OptiQPAP project.
