Influencing fibre orientation by means of process-integrated actuators (B02)

Subject Area Plastics Engineering
Term since 2025
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 525069572
 

Project Description

Sub-project B02 investigates the application of shape memory alloys (SMA) integrated into FRP semi-finished products to create transition structures that are produced by subsequent thermoplastic processes. The central question is to define suitable transition structures for the realisation of a grading, to prove their functionality on the model in tests and by means of demonstrators and to show ways to realise the production of these structures.
DFG Programme CRC/Transregios
Subproject of TRR 402:  Intelligent production technologies for lightweight plastic structures with load-dedicated 3D grading of the reinforcement architecture
Applicant Institution Technische Universität Chemnitz
Project Heads Professor Dr.-Ing. Welf-Guntram Drossel; Dr.-Ing. Kenny Pagel
