Project description

My research focuses on the experimental characterization of recycled composites and reclaimed constituents. The aim is to establish a link between the modified morphological and physical properties caused by recycling, and their resulting mechanical performance. Deformation, damage, and failure mechanisms associated with different recycling approaches will be identified, while developing a comprehensive property database for future modelling efforts.

The goal is to correlate processing, properties and material performance, enabling optimizations and improvements in the recycling processes, and to innovate reliable testing methodologies that closely reflect real end-of-life conditions.
