Materials for large length fibre-based ships. Characterization, selection, and numerical analysis

Abstract

Fourth dissemination action for university students for increasing the interest in the use of fibre-reinforced polymers for large-length vessels design and shipbuilding in the future naval architects and marine engineers. This presentation was held at the Higher Technical School of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering (ETSINO) of UPM in Madrid on the 1st of October of 2019. In this presentation, the process of materials selection for marine applicactions and the numerical models for characterizing and predicting the fatigue and failure of such materials were introduced.
