The goal of a tight community integration into the development of a digital materials infrastructure requires processes, which allow to translate ‘real’ scientific workflows and the related research data handling into infrastructure requirements and their implementation. The resulting infrastructure services and products must be interoperable and easy to combine into customized workflows that help researchers speed up their work and improve the quality and reusability of their data and tools (FAIR principles). To ensure that the specific needs of the researchers in MSE are addressed, Participant Projects (PPs) have been selected together with the community to derive Infrastructure Use-Cases (IUCs), which are used to guide the development of the materials digital infrastructure. The PPs were carefully chosen in order to represent different types of collaborative consortia and their specific needs. They address research data management in differing contexts, from the description of microstructural parameters and their data representation to the realization of data standards on the example of creep experiments up to the multiscale material simulation or the implementation of an electronic lab notebook software. The current PPs are listed in the following, if you are interested to contribute to the NFDI-MatWerk activities as additional PP, please contact us.
