Funding & impact
Funding bodies / call
Project PID2022-137387OB-I00 funded under the 2022 Knowledge Generation Projects programme. Funding information and acknowledgements use MICIU/AEI and ERDF/FEDER as applicable to project outputs.
Expected impact
Scientific
Reliable shear properties, better interpretation of biaxial tests and new damage-informed micromechanical models.
Industrial
Testing methodologies and transferable fixtures intended to make high-quality biaxial characterization accessible to more laboratories.
Aerospace & sustainability
More realistic allowables can reduce unnecessary overdesign; radiation-damage knowledge supports reusable and damage-tolerant composite structures.
From testing to design
The common thread is to reduce experimental uncertainty and turn it into more reliable properties for design, predictive simulation, standardization and transfer.
