Research at the InnoRenew CoE
Research at the InnoRenew CoE is interdisciplinary by design and necessity. We believe the most impactful solutions we can provide through our research work must include positive impacts that intersect across different societal groups, environmental concerns, human health, and industrial efficiency. The InnoRenew CoE has 5 research groups, supported by a data science team and a technology transfer group. We publish open data and publications in our Zenodo community.
Research groups
Wood Modification
Enhancing properties, extending life, and creating new functionality through advanced processing.
Renewable Materials Composites
Creating new RM-based and hybrid materials that extend product life, enhance functionality, and create better products for buildings and consumers.
Sustainable Building with Renewable Materials
Using timber and other renewable materials, in combination with other materials, to create safe, environmentally, and socially responsible buildings that meet the needs of all users.
ICT in Renewable Materials and Sustainable Building
Enhancing buildings, industries, safety, and wellbeing through the use of digital technologies including BIM, optimisation, modelling, sensors, as well as data collection, management, and analysis.
Experimental Design and Data Analysis
Gaining insight and intelligence from data, and ensuring safe, secure, and appropriate analytics of experiments.
Technology Transfer
Ensuring our best work reaches a wide and diverse audience in schools, the scientific community, industry, and the public.
