Smart Material GmbH joined the international research & development project InComEss of the European Union during March 2020.
The InComEss project, short for INnovative polymer-based COmposite systeMs for high-efficient Energy Scavenging and Storage, proposes a new green-and-cost-effective strategy for high efficient energy harvesting by combining new, smart and advanced polymer-based composite materials and structures into a single/multi-source concept to harvest electrical energy from mechanical energy and/or waste heat ambient sources, which consists of three novel Energy Harvesting Systems (EHSs) configurations: Piezoelectric, Thermoelectric and hybrid Thermo/PiezoElectric EHSs.
The full documentation can be found on the official InComEss website.
