Architected Metamaterials: a new volume on design, additive manufacturing, and applications
A new Elsevier book on architected metamaterials, edited by Matteo Benedetti, provides an integrated overview of design, additive manufacturing, material properties, and industrial applications.
From fundamental chemistry to industrial sustainability
This work introduces an innovative approach to olefin oxidative cleavage based on the in situ generation of nitrate radicals via TiO₂ photocatalysis. The method enables the production of carbonyl compounds under mild conditions while reducing hazardous oxidants. Electro-assisted systems further enhance efficiency and sustainability for scalable applications.
When Artificial Intelligence learns from physics
A physics-guided AI approach uses structured neural networks to model brake wear emissions, combining engineering knowledge and data to achieve more interpretable, efficient, and robust predictive models.
From nature to clinic: natural inks for bone tissue regeneration
An interdisciplinary study between Trento and Sydney explores natural bioinks for bone regeneration. Using 3D bioprinting and materials such as silk fibroin, hydroxyapatite, and tropoelastin, bioactive, sustainable, and customizable scaffolds were developed.
From Trento’s labs to Jaguar Land Rover braking systems | An interview with Dr. Priyadarshini Jayashree
Interview with a Trento PhD graduate now working at Jaguar Land Rover. She shares her global journey, how tribology applies to high-performance braking systems, and the future challenges in automotive engineering, including EVs, sustainability, and smart braking technologies.
When particle physicists call engineers: how the collaboration between DII and INFN is developing the technologies of the future
The collaboration between the University of Trento’s Department of Industrial Engineering and INFN-TIFPA develops cutting-edge technologies ranging from radiation sensors and quantum devices to space mission systems. This multidisciplinary ecosystem transforms fundamental physics research into applications for medicine, industry, and space exploration.
Modern Steelmaking: Processes, Technologies, and Industrial Practice
A complete, up-to-date guide to modern steelmaking: from iron ore reduction and blast furnace to BOF converter, electric arc furnace, secondary metallurgy, continuous casting and remelting technologies. With practical numerical examples for engineering students and industry technicians.
Metrological culture as an antidote to judicial errors
The PRIN 2022 project examines how metrology can enhance the reliability of scientific evidence in criminal trials. By focusing on measurement uncertainty and developing operational guidelines, the research promotes a culture of methodical doubt to prevent cognitive bias and wrongful convictions, strengthening the dialogue between science and law and improving judicial decision-making.
Agricultural innovation takes the podium: Soilence’s success at Trentino Startup Valley
Soilence secured second place at Trentino Startup Valley 2025 with its innovative biodegradable water-retaining soil amendment. Developed by researchers from the University of Trento, the technology enhances drought resilience and supports sustainable agriculture in the face of climate change.
