Institute of Fundamental Technological Research PAS
The mission statement of the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research is to conduct high quality research in areas that are the focus of world sciences and technology. The most important fields of the Institute’s expertise include theoretical and applied mechanics, theory of coupled mechanical and physical fields, theoretical and experimental mechanic mechanics of materials and structures, computational methods in mechanics, acoustoelectronics, and ultrasonic medical diagnostics. Extensive research is also conducted in several branches of fundamental science and technology, such as physics and thermodynamics of continua, fluid mechanics, laser beam interaction with metal surfaces, nanophotonic, applied mathematics, applied informatics, and bioinformatics. Together with the results of scientific research, the Institute has developed a wide range of modern technologies, a considerable number of original measurement and diagnostic equipment, both engineering and medical, and a number of innovative computer codes. These products were developed in close cooperation with industrial partners. IPPT PAN has got extensive experience in international cooperation, particularly in the domain of international research projects. This has resulted in the establishment of the European Institute of Multifunctional Materials KMM-VIN AISBL. With the aim of concentrating on the scientific potential of the most promising and innovative areas, the Institute participates in numerous highly specialised scientific consortia, such us Centre for Preclinical Research and Technology (CePT), EuMaT, CEZAMAT, Piezo Institute, CAT “AeroNet-Aviation Valley”
