Laboratory of Composite Materials and Adaptive Structures

Our group is focusing on design, modeling and fabrication of adaptive material systems and composites structures for application in lightweight systems. Our approach combines experimental techniques, analytical and numerical methods to understand, to simulate and to verify the physical behavior of the developed solutions. Our competences span from material science to novel engineering applications, covering

• design, fabrication and characterization of intelligent material systems, including their integration in active and passive smart structures, 
• understanding and control of complex impregnation and curing phenomena, and
• development of models and more efficient numerical methods to analyze the physical behavior of material and structures and to design optimized composite and adaptive structures.
