Composites and Materials Mechanics

The programme is active in scientific and applied materials research and development. The effort is directed towards research, innovation, and education; the engineering focus is on energy and industrial applications of composite materials.

The work is carried out in close contact and collaboration with the national and the international industry, the education sector, and research sector.

 

Main objectives are to develop and to improve the use of composite materials based on metals, polymers, and ceramics. The goal is to extend the knowledge of light and strong materials seen from both a functionality and an application point of view.

The work is focused on optimising properties, developing new materials, using conventional methods and seeking new methods for manufac-turing, destructive and non-destructive characterisation, and numerical modelling.
