Recyclability of composite blades is an important requirement for future wind turbines. There exist a number of solutions for the recycling of wind turbine blades. How to compare and optimize various composite recycling technologies? How to ensure efficiency of technology and quality of products? This will be a task for new postdoc at DTU Wind.

Postdoctoral position in Computational modelling of life extension and maintenance of composite blades of wind turbines, at DTU Wind.

Wind turbines are decommissioned after 20...25 years of service. However, blades can be potentially exploited for 50 or more years. How to predict and extend the lifetime of wind turbine blades? How to optimize repair of blades, to ensure their extended lifetime?

Postdoc position is available at DTU Wind Energy, the Section for Composite Mechanics and Structures.
The position is in the framework of Innovation Foundation project “DURALEDGE/ Durable leading edges for high tip speed wind turbine blades".

Dear colleagues,

We would like to invite you to participate at the International Symposium on Leading Edge Erosion of Wind Turbine Blades, which will take place February 4-6, 2020, in the Niels Bohr Auditorium, DTU Risø Campus, Roskilde, Denmark.

Postdoctoral Position in in Computational Mechanics of Structured Coatings is available at Technical University of Denmark, DTU Wind Energy.

NANOENGINEERED COMPOSITES: Properties, modelling and applications

July 15-17, 2015, Roskilde, Denmark

A short overview of micromechanical models of hierarchical materials (hybrid composites, biomaterials, fractal materials, etc.) is given. Several examples of the modeling of strength and damage in hierarchical materials are summarized, among them, 3D FE model of hybrid composites with nanoengineered matrix, fiber bundle model of UD composites with hierarchically clustered fibers and 3D multilevel model of wood considered as a gradient, cellular material with layered composite cell walls.

3D numerical simulations of fatigue damage of multiscale fiber reinforced polymer composites with secondary nanoclay´reinforcement are carried out. Macro–micro FE models of the multiscale composites are generated automatically using Python based software. The effect of the nanoclay reinforcement (localized in the fiber/matrix interface (fiber sizing) and distributed throughout the matrix) on the crack path, damage mechanisms and fatigue behavior is investigated in numerical experiments.

3D computational model of graphene reinforced polymer composites is developed and applied to the analysis of damage and fracture mechanisms in the composites. The graphene/polymer interface properties are determined using the inverse modeling approach. The effect of composite structure, in particular, of the aspect ratio, shape, clustering, orientation and volume fraction of graphene platelets on the
mechanical behavior and damage mechanisms of nanocomposites are studied in computational experiments.

OBJECTIVES AND TOPICS

          Development of
nanoengineering technologies and creation of nanomaterials opened new
perspectives for a number of areas of industry and everyday life. These
materials demonstrate increased strength, toughness, biocompatibility,
and can ensure higher service properties, reliability and lifetime of
devices and systems.
