The “Thermoplastic Composites” working group deals with all issues relating to the processing of continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastics. The entire process chain is considered, from the
For some time now, there has been a drive to manufacture high-performance fiber composite components wherever conventional construction materials have reached their limits. Due to
For a long time, fiber composite applications were characterized almost exclusively by small quantities, low volumes and preferably artisanal processes. The following stood in the
The research field of additive-generative manufactured components is very broad and currently encompasses the entire value chain from process and equipment technology to materials and
The sub-working group (SWG) “Composite Fatigue” brings together representatives from industry and science who are concerned with the failure of fiber composites. The main focus
Essential work contents are: Closing of technology gaps to inline non-destructive evaluation (NDE) in automated manufacturing Drastic cost reductions for component NDE (both for NDE
The CU BW (CU Baden-Württemberg) cluster established the WG “Structural Integrity” in October 2014. The topics of crash, high velocity impact (HVI), damage tolerance (LVI),
Multifunctional composites combine optimal structural mechanical performance with a variety of functional properties. The mechanical and diverse physical properties of the multifunctional composite can be
The “Function-Integrating Lightweight Engineering in Multi-Material Design” (Dresden model) offers numerous advantages over conventional designs. In order to exploit these advantages and accelerate the industrial
