Simulation
- Linear and non-linear finite element (FE) simulation of components under quasistatic and highly dynamic loads
- Determination of the fatigue strength, especially of fiber composite structures under cyclic loads
- natural frequency analysis
- • Topology optimization, shape optimization, optimization of layer structures in FRP components
- Cross-scale material modeling at micro, meso and macro level
- Simulation of manufacturing processes (e.g. infusion and pultrusion processes)
- Drapery simulations for textile materials
- • Iterative calibration and close collaboration between simulation and design, for the efficient and effective configuration of components
- • In-house test laboratory for the determination of material characteristics and for the validation of simulation results
