Enabling qualification of hybrid structures for lightweight and safe maritime transport
Abstract
There is an increasing need for reducing the weight of heavily loaded structures, demanding the development of durable and lightweight solutions that can withstand such loads under extreme environmental conditions. For the application of marine vessels, hybrid composite-to-metal adhesive joints can reduce weight while preserving strength, leading to lighter and stronger structures. 10% weight reduction can lead to 8% less fuel consumption and less environmental pollution. Ambition Currently No certification guidelines exist to certify new ship designs using adhesively bonded hybrid joints in primary structures. QUALIFY aims to provide the necessary knowledge to remove these technological and regulatory barriers. UGent tasks Develop experimental tools to evaluate the long term structural performance of the adhesively bonded hybrid joint under representative operational and environmental conditions.
