Maria Lißner’s crash course in why interfaces fail
An Oxford researcher documents experiments on how adhesive joints, composites, and 3D-printed materials break under impact.
Field notes
The page connects physical testing to computational modelling rather than presenting publications as an isolated list. Its rate scale runs from standard tensile testing through car-crash conditions, bird strikes, and ballistic impact, while the methods include drop towers, heated Hopkinson bars, digital image correlation, X-ray CT, and synchrotron phase-contrast imaging. The profile also identifies two ATI / Innovate UK programmes and lists simulations implemented in Abaqus and LS-DYNA.
