Metal and Composite Structures B-8
Loading...
The objectives of the scientific work at the Institute of Metal and Composite Structures are, on the one hand, early detection and localization of degradation in metal structures through acoustic methods and, on the other hand, tailored development of nano- and microstructured hybrid metals aiming at a delay of degradation and understanding of material mechanisms across length scales. The societal impact is increase of lifetime and operational readiness of metal infrastructure at reduced maintenance costs.
