Research Group

Research Theme

The goal of the research group is to understand, predict and optimize the performance of composite structures during their life cycle, including design and development, manufacturing, etc. Through a coordinated effort in experimental, theoretical and computational studies, the group explores innovative solutions and sustainable practices for industrial applications of composite materials. The current research topics include

• Design of high-performance composite structures:
  Hybrid composites, Bio-inspired design, Impact, Damage tolerance, etc.
• Optimization of manufacturing process:
  Precise manufacturing, Process-induced Distortions, Defects, Additive Manufacturing, etc.
• Development of numerical models and tools:
  Damage and fracture, Multiscale modeling, Data-driven method, etc.
