Digital Twin Systems

AMAT develops digital twin systems built on three pillars:

  • An innovative, robust physical layer (sensors and data transmission)
  • AI/ML algorithms for data analysis and decision support
  • A user-friendly human–machine interface (HMI) for monitoring and decision-making

AMAT’s expertise in designing new sensing elements, and in selecting suitable low-cost off-the-shelf sensors, has enabled successful digital twin implementations in industry, energy, transport, health and agriculture. AMAT has recently started developing AI/ML algorithms and human–machine interfaces, in particular for estimating the remaining useful life (RUL) of steel structures (American Bureau of Shipping – ABS).

Health and Life eXploration

AMAT collaborates with experts in oncology and biosensors on diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, including:

  • Biosensors
  • Magnetically aided targeted drug delivery
  • Selective magnetic separation

HeLiX brings AMAT’s expertise in sensing elements and magnetic materials to health and life sciences. The work is carried out together with Angelo Ferraro, Biologist, PhD and expert in oncology, an active member of AMAT’s Technical Team, and extends to humus soil optimization and agricultural IoT.

Revolutionary Energy Technologies

AMAT works on next-generation energy technologies in three fields:

  • Hydrogen technologies
  • Small modular reactor (SMR) engineering
  • Energy storage technologies

AMAT specialises in magnetic-field-assisted chlor-alkali electrolysis, which enhances hydrogen production while co-producing chlorine dioxide, significantly reducing the cost of hydrogen. For hydrogen storage, AMAT uses chemical carriers: methanol and/or ammonia. Along these lines, AMAT is currently designing high-performance methanol and ammonia fuel cells optimised for stationary and mobile applications. AMAT has recently started a collaboration with a leading US university on the engineering of 50 MW small modular reactors. AMAT also works on electrical energy storage using batteries, supercapacitors and thermal storage.
