Welcome to Dynamo

A fascinating project that it’s all about innovation!

Project phases

From theory to proof of concept

Phase 01

Theoretical and experimental study of phononic surfaces

Phase one kicks the project off through the theorization and the experimentation. We’re basically making sure those surfaces work exactly as we predicted before actually fabricating them.

Phase 02

Fabrication and optimization of the structures

In Phase Two, the magic continues! It’s all about optimization – making those structures work like a charm for real-world applications.

Phase 03

Proof-of-concept applications for imaging with ultra-fast spatial light modulators

In Phase Three, we’ve reached an advanced level of technology know-how (TRL3) by carefully fabricating some top-notch samples and running experiments to prove our initial concept.

Work packages

Project Work Packages

WP1

Modelling of phononic surfaces

The objective of this work package is the development of theoretical tools for the study of microstructured phononic surfaces.

WP2

Optimization of vibrational mode density

The general objective of this work package is to provide necessary methods and tools for the design of phononic surfaces with desired dynamic properties.

WP3

Fabrication of phononic architectures

This work package focuses on the production of a variety of the phononic architectures modelled and characterized in the project.

WP4

Sample characterization

To characterize the samples and check their compliance with the requirement of projected SLM, we will measure the vibrational state on the phononic surfaces designed in WP1, optimized in WP2 and fabricated in WP3.

WP5

Application development

The objective of this work package is the development of proof-of-concept applications of the new concept of SLMs developed during the project.

WP6

Management

The main objective of this WP is to establish a project management structure (Project Coordination Committee) and procedures that coordinate the activities of the consortium.

WP7

Dissemination

The main objective of this WP is to implement the activities to maximise the impact of the project through communication, dissemination and exploitation activities.
