Research starts at university: FAU student Stefan Gäcklein is already investigating the behaviour of fibre-reinforced plastics under high strain rates in high-speed tensile tests at the KTmfk as part of his project work. The resulting material parameters are an essential basis for precise simulation results, especially in crash simulation. Do you also have to deal with components subjected to sudden stresses?
