1st open-door industrial day of Fibregy
If you are interested in seeing European research in action join us at the Fibregy event in the canary islands in May!
In cooperation with E-LASS we are organizing an open-door industrial day. The 3rd of May will be full of exciting presentation on the Fibregy results and from the E-LASS network. On the next day we will visit the shipyard to see the W2Power towers manufactured in composite material.
You are interested? Make sure to register for the event!

Hoping to see you in Las Palmas!
Progress Meeting in Madrid
Another great progress meeting of the #Fibregy project has been completed. This time we met in the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros Navales at the Polytechnic University of Madrid, which looks back over 250 years of existence. It was a great to pleasure to meet in such a historic and interesting place.

First “in-person” project meeting
Greetings from Barcelona!
We had our first project meeting in person this week, where we could share and discuss the project’s progress without headphones and technical problems. 😉
We are already looking forward to the next one!

Material Selection at ULim
Let’s have a deeper look into the material selection progress in FibreGY! The University of Limerick is doing some fascinating research on composite materials suitable for the prototypes in FibreGY:
The mechanical properties of the composite materials selected for FibreGY are evaluated in static and dynamic loading regimes. These mechanical tests are instrumented with strain gauges, acoustic emission transducers, infrared thermal camera and extensometer to estimate the damage induced by loading. In addition to classic SN curves, the data from these sensors reveals the progression of loading induced damage. This gives a better understating of fatigue behavior and failure mechanisms of the material, which is essential for reducing maintanence on sea. Also, a new innovative technique called temperature stabilisation method is employed for the fatigue characterization. Here in this picture you can see Akshay Amaranath Hejjaji from University of Limerick testing different material samples.
New website release
We are glad to announce that we have a new website design ready. During the following days we will be uploading new content to this blog. Feel free to take a look around the website!
