SISSA is partner of Danieli 3 project (Danieli Research Center) that is funded by POR-FESR 2014-2020 - Activity 1.3.a – R&D.

Danieli is one of the largest suppliers of plants and processes for the metal industry. Danieli develops technologies and it can supply equipment and complete plants (turnkey projects). An international multicultural team that covers the full spectrum of technology from iron ore to the different finished products. It introduced to the market the highest number of innovations recent years, investing an average of 140 M Euro/Year in the last eight years. Its extensive, in-house manufacturing capability ensures equipment of the highest quality and reliability, thanks to continuous process control, as well as ensuring multicultural intellectual growth, taking advantage of different cultures and motivations. Software algorithm models, computerized quality and production control systems, adopting the most advanced information technologies like fuzzy logic, neural systems, modeling, and simulation are developed in-house and this results in a Danieli process know-how transfer to final users.

The project concerns the numerical investigation of very complex multiphysics scenarios characterized by fluid-structure interaction, free-surface turbulent flows and thermo-chemical reactions. Numerical simulations will be performed by using open-source libraries.

This is the third project with Danieli (Danieli 1 2014-2015, Danieli 2 2015-2016).
