Aims

The main goal of the Transfer Project T03 is the application of the results of fundamental studies regarding fibre-reinforced components based on thermoplastic matrix materials with integrated piezoceramic modules obtained within the Collaborative Research Centre DFG-CRC/TR 39 to industrially applicable and economically manufacturable fibre-reinforced structures with material integrated actuator-sensor-arrays. This aim forces particularly the modification of the associated manufacturing technologies and design methods taking into account the industrial requirements such as the positioning accuracy, functionality and manufacturing cycle times.
