Het laboratorium Soete verlegt de grenzen op het gebied van tribologisch onderzoek, breukmechanica en materiaalmoeheid van mechanische componenten en constructies. Het laboratorium doet fundamenteel en toegepast onderzoek, en verleent industriële diensten op het gebied van componentenontwerp, materiaalkarakterisering, structurele analyse en levensduurbepaling. Zowel experimentele als computationele expertise is beschikbaar om een breed spectrum aan analyses te bieden. Het laboratorium verricht onderzoek en diensten op de volgende gebieden:
- tribologie: geavanceerde smering, erosieve/abrasieve slijtage, wrijving en slijtage van geavanceerde materialen (keramiek, polymeren en composieten, zelfsmerende materialen);
- breukmechanica: scheurinitiatie, breukanalyse met speciale aandacht voor de beoordeling van gelaste structuren of multimateriaalverbindingen;
- beoordeling van vermoeiing en levensduur: levensduur van componenten, structuren en mechanische constructies;
- ontwikkeling van aangepaste testinfrastructuur met innovatieve controle-instrumenten en analyses.
Het mariene onderzoek richt zich op de beoordeling van abrasieve slijtage van sluitingen van sleepnetten, defecte lassen in offshorepijpleidingen, vermoeidheidsanalyse van staal gebruikt in offshore constructies en de studie van het mechanische gedrag van kabels of polymeercomposiet gebruikt in mariene toepassingen. Lopende projecten richten zich op het genereren van kennis en oplossingen voor schadeverschijnselen en/of levensduur van structuren voor offshore hernieuwbare energie (met verschillende projecten gericht op offshore wind) en op de scheepvaartindustrie.
Het laboratorium Soete is verbonden aan het UGent valorisatieconsortium Metalen dat ondersteuning biedt aan O&O naar nano- tot mega-metalen en van fundamentele eigenschappen tot grootschalige toepassingen. Daarenboven beschikt het laboratorium over personeel om diensten te kunnen aanbieden aan de industrie en zijn partners.
