Moscow Polytech's young scientists defended projects supported by the grants named after P.L.Kapitsa

On August 15, the defense of research projects, received the grants named after P.L.Kapitsa, was conducted at Moscow Polytech. 19 specialists presented the results of research to the commission. The speakers not only spoke about the results of the work done, but also about the perspectives of the projects. In their turn, each of the presenters received recommendations with remarks and advices for further work.

The defense included two stages: At the first stage, those who have implemented the grant program for two years presented, and during the second stage - for only one year. Among the projects submitted for the defense were “Adaptation of New Aluminum Low-Density Alloys Based on Al-Ca System in the Design of Electric Vehicle Body Elements” (Vitaliy Doroshenko); “Structured Low Defect Thin Film Materials for Efficient Nanoelectronics Devices” (Alexander Kazak); “Investigation of Electrochemical and Morphological Properties of Materials at the Nanoscale to Increase Efficiency and Create New Types of Energy Storage Devices” (Dmitry Kolesov); “Development of Scientific Foundations for the Production of Spherical Powders of Metal-Ceramic Composites for Use in Additive Technologies”(Andrey Kirsankin); “Modeling of an Intelligent Management System for Sustainable Development of Territories Based on Machine Learning Methods” (Anna Shkalenko); “Digital Materials Science” (Maxim Orlov), and many others. 

The grant program named after P.L.Kapitsa was founded to support independent research of Moscow Polytech scientists. The project is implemented within the program of strategic academic leadership “Priority 2030”.
