Enhancing structural efficiency through novel dissimilar material joining techniques (SAFEJOINT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

There is a high demand for the design of lightweight energy efficient structures for transport applications in order to meet CO2 emissions targets set worldwide. To achieve this designers have introduced the concept of “hybrid” structures where two or more lightweight materials are used each possessing unique properties that when joined together result in high performance lightweight structures t ...

Developing Novel Fire-Resistant High Performance Composites (FIRE-RESIST)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

The greater use of polymer matrix composite materials would be highly desirable. Their low weight, along with their inherent resistance to corrosion and fatigue, enables more fuel efficient and sustainable transport structures. However, for many applications, the biggest factor currently preventing the more widespread use of light high-performance polymer matrix composites is their poor fire perfo ...
