National TV program on Politecnico di BARI and its successes

Submitted by Mike Ciavarella on

See a national broadcast on Politecnico di BARI and the region Puglia, with its successes, including the worldwide success of Diesel common rail technology, the GE centre on Addittive Manufacturing and Cold Spray, and others.

 

Mechatronics, the world patent on diesel common rail technology, for which Bosch created a factory of 2000 employees (now, after dieselgate, trying to reconfigure this), biomedical, tribology, etc.

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eml.2018.01.009 Scleroproteins are an important category of proteins within the human body that adopt filamentous, elongated conformations in contrast with typical globular proteins. These include keratin, collagen, and elastin, which often serve a common mechanical function in structural support of cells and tissues. Genetic mutations alter these proteins, disrupting their functions and causing diseases.
