The Gurit98m: a detailed open-source modern offshore wind turbine blade structural model with optimization applications Open
One of the primary challenges in wind turbine blade optimization research is creating a model that is representative of current state-of-the-art blade structures. This task is complex and time-consuming, given the multiple disciplines invo…

Modelling and quantifying Mode I interlaminar fracture in particle-toughened CFRPs Open
Four-dimensional time-resolved Synchrotron Radiation Computed Tomography (SRCT) has been used to capture Mode I delamination propagation in particle-toughened Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs). Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) was u…

Interlaminar toughening mechanisms: In situ growth and modelling Open
Modelling composite toughness and what mechanisms are responsible for added toughness has been less tackled within the composites community. With the advances of computational resources and the development of arbitrary cracking models, suc…
