- Additional information
- This research underpins the significance of the underlying microstructure (diameter/length of the fibre) to the structural performance of high-end composite materials like helicopter blades and wind turbines. The motivation was to provide a new multi-scale modelling approach for structures by identifying and quantifying the interplay between two important structural design variables (geometry and material properties). The results can be applied at the microlevel as well such as capacitive micro-sensors and micro-actuators which is an active and ongoing research area.
