2. Development and characterization of functional composite materials for advanced energy conversion technologies
Abstract : The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a potential high efficient electrochemical device for vehicles, auxiliary power units and large-scale stationary power plants combined heat and power application. The main challenges of this technology for market acceptance are associated with cost and lifetime due to the high temperature (700-1000 oC) operation and complex cell structure, i. READ MORE

4. Failure prediction of orthotropic Non-Crimp Fabric reinforced composite materials
Abstract : The automotive industry needs to reduce the energy consumption to decrease the impact on the environment. One part of this is to reduce the weight of cars, thereby reducing the fuel consumption. A promising way to be successful with this is to introduce carbon fibre composites in the structural parts.

5. Damage evolution in laminates with manufacturing defects
Abstract : In this thesis, experimental investigations and theoretical studies on the stochastic matrix cracking evolution under static loading in composite laminates with manufacturing defects are presented. The presented work demonstrates a methodology that accounts for the statistically distributed defects in damage mechanics models for the assessment of the integrity of composites and for the structural design of composites.
