Lightweight Structures

The vision of the Lightweight Structures group is to perform high-class research towards lighter, multifunctional and resource efficient materials and structures, thereby strengthening the industry and society at large while targeting the UN sustainability goals. The focus is on composite materials and sandwich structures, but also on lightweight welded steel structures. The research encompasses materials, structures, design, manufacturing, durability, and integrated functionality, coupling theoretical, numerical, and experimental studies.
