The Steel4Fatigue consortium gathered in the facilities of Eurecat in Manresa (Spain) on July 4th, 2024, to hold the kick-off meeting of the project.
During the meeting, the partners presented the different work packages to be implemented throughout the project and put in common the next action points to be undertaken.
Steel4Fatigue will explore the capabilities of high-strength steels with excellent fatigue resistance for lightweight structural applications in future mobility.
The initiative is coordinated by the research center Eurecat and the consortium is made up of two universities (KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and the Luleå University of Technology), five industrial partners (ArcelorMittal, Sidenor, SSAB, Scania and MW) and one standardisation body (Spanish Association for Standardization – UNE).
