EU Projects
Goldbeck Consulting is involved in a wide range of EU Horizon projects, covering topics of integration, interoperability and digitalisation of materials modelling and characterisation.
BatCAT
BatCAT is a research and innovation project funded by the EU’s Horizon Europe programme. The project is a collaboration between 18 partner organisations from 9 European countries, coordinated by NMBU (Norway). The project aims to create a digital twin for battery manufacturing by developing a cross-chemistry data space for two technologies: Li-ion and Li-S coin cells and redox flow batteries. The project will also address three challenges in digital manufacturing: Design, operation, and trust.
BatCAT is closely connected to BIG-MAP and BATTERY 2030+, EOSC, EMMC, and OntoCommons, ensuring a community and industry uptake of the results.
OntoTrans
OntoTrans provides an ontology-based Artificial Intelligence approach that connects manufacturing process challenges with relevant information sources and materials modelling solutions, capable to support optimal materials and process design in a so-called Open Translation Environment. OntoTrans provides smart targeted guidance through the whole translation process, namely from the initial user case specification to actual materials modelling workflows with related validation, verification and uncertainty quantifications. This is achieved via analysis of available data (data fusion), modelling workflow options, simulation and contextual results interpretation. Its footing on the European Materials & Modelling Ontology ensures wide interoperability and standardisation.
OpenModel
OpenModel aims to design, create, provide, and maintain a sustainable integrated open platform for innovation which delivers predictable, validated, and traceable simulation workflows integrating seamlessly third-party physics-based models, solvers, post-processors and databases.
OpenModel thus bridges the gap from industry challenge via translation to actionable results that enable well informed business decisions. Six use cases (Success Stories) show the applicability to a wide range of materials and their related processing technologies and demonstrate how OpenModel facilitates setting up experiments, reducing error and enhancing development efficiency.
OntoCommons
OntoCommons is an H2020 Coordination and Support Action that aims to facilitate the development of an ontology-based, FAIR data documentation across all materials & manufacturing domains laying the foundations for an Industry Commons of materials and manufacturing data.
NanoMECommons
NanoMECommons is building a multidisciplinary research and innovation network to tackle the lack of harmonisation and standardised documentation of nanomechanical materials characterisation in multiple industries.
The focus of NanoMECommons is to employ innovative nano-scale mechanical testing procedures in real industrial environments, by developing harmonised and widely accepted characterisation methods, with reduced measurement discrepancy, and improved interoperability and traceability of data. To achieve this goal, NanoMECommons will offer protocols for multi-technique, multi-scale characterisations of mechanical properties in a range of industrially relevant sectors, together with novel tools for data sharing and wider applicability across NMBP domain: reference materials, specific ontologies and standardised data documentation.
OYSTER
OYSTER stands for “Open characterisation and modelling environment to drive innovation in advanced nano-architectured and bio-inspired hard/soft interfaces”.
OYSTER is a Horizon 2020 project that brings together leading laboratories and SMEs to take existing nanoscale characterisation technologies towards widespread utilisation in process optimisation and model validation.
OYSTER achieves this by sharing metadata in an Open Innovation Environment (OIE), where new paradigms of multi-scale contact mechanics are validated on selected application oriented reference materials through continuous interaction with the European Materials Characterisation Council (EMCC).
Goldbeck Consulting is a partner in the project contributing to the interactions with the EMCC, the elaboration and standardisation of terminology, classification and metadata to support the OIE.
VIMMP
Virtual Materials Marketplace (VIMMP) is a Horizon 202 project which provides an easily accessible, user-friendly digital marketplace for materials modelling. VIMMP will provide access to all tangible and intangible components, such as information, knowledge, services and tools to support the efficient decision making, uptake and effective use of materials modelling by a wide range of manufacturing end-users.
At the core of VIMMP is a metadata enriched data environment that eases the tasks of all actors. In particular it will facilitate the translation of a scientific problem into modelling workflows, ready for simulation using a range of software tools integrated into an open simulation platform and deployed on cloud services. The VIMMP platform is open, so that any provider can easily integrate and deploy their software codes as well as services.
MARKETPLACE
MarketPlace is a Horizon 2020 project which will build a digital marketplace for materials modelling, offering the framework for integration of the diverse range of codes, components, data and services from all fragmented materials modelling in order to provide a single point of access for users in industry and academia.
Goldbeck Consulting is a partner in the project contributing to product management, interoperability and business planning.
European Materials Modelling Council (EMMC)
The EMMC is a community driven bottom-up action to connect all existing material modelling activities and stakeholders in Europe. The EMMC aims to network with all existing materials modelling related activities in Europe and make use of the EMMC network to complement these activities.
Following the conclusion of a successful H2020 Coordination and Support Action, EMMC has been established as a not-for-profit association (EMMC ASBL) in Brussels. Goldbeck Consulting is a Founding Organisational Member of EMMC ASBL and is also currently in charge of the executive management of EMMC ASBL.
European Materials Characterisation Council (EMCC)
The aim of the EMCC is to support establishing a community of European stakeholders in the process of developing and improving characterisation tools in order to bring the development of nanomaterials and advanced materials in Europe into end products more successfully.
Goldbeck Consulting is represented on the Organisational Management Board of the EMCC.
