Project summary
- Perform experimental characterization of the static and fatigue performance of welded thermoplastic composite structures.
- Develop constitutive models that accurately describe the performance of the welded interface.
- Implement the developed models in commercial FE simulation software for the development of a digital twin and validate their accuracy against experiments.
- Implement an effective sensor integration method for welded thermoplastic composite structures, using piezo-electric sensors, fiber optical sensor, or a combination of both.
- Perform dynamic experiments of pristine and (gradually) damaged structures to collect data for the state estimation methods.
- Develop signal processing methods to estimate, enriched by physics-based information, the current state of the welded structure and its development under fatigue loading.
