Study of the shear response in laminated structures made of composite material
CORA focuses on reliable determination of the in-plane pure shear response of thin FRP laminates, combining biaxial tension–compression testing, standard shear methods, full-field measurements and multi-scale numerical modelling.

From test method to transferable capability
CORA combines a rigorous experimental comparison of shear methods with numerical interpretation, standardization and new equipment. The objective is not only to publish results, but to leave a repeatable test procedure, transferable fixture and stronger biaxial-testing infrastructure.
