Efficiently Predicting the Service Life of Plastics: Fraunhofer LBF couples Experimentation and Modeling

article imagePlastics are under stress from their environment: changing temperatures, solar radiation, humidity, chemical substances and mechanical loads all affect them and change the material properties. In order to minimize the risks when using new materials or changing operating conditions, reliable statements on service life are required. In addition to test methods that can detect damage at an early stage, this requires suitable aging and failure models as well as application-relevant damage criteria. To accelerate material and component development, it is also advantageous to shorten the duration of test cycles, climate storage or weathering in the laboratory. Teams from the Plastics Division of the Fraunhofer Institute for Structural Durability and System Reliability LBF are therefore developing customized test methods and coupling them with modeling software to predict service life for complex application scenarios. The result is shorter development times and a reduced risk of failure in later use.

EU Project ALMA: Thinking Ahead to Electromobility

article imageE-mobility and lightweight design are two crucial building blocks of modern vehicle development to drive the energy transition forward. They are the focus of the ALMA project (Advanced Light Materials and Processes for the Eco-Design of Electric Vehicles). Nine European organizations are now working in the EU project to develop more energy-efficient and sustainable vehicles. Companies from research and industry are optimizing the efficiency and range of electric vehicles, among other things by reducing the weight of the overall vehicle. The Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics ITWM is providing support with mathematical simulation expertise.
