Final review meeting

Feedback on the final review of D-STANDART project !

On 4th of February in Amsterdam (and online), the D-STANDART consortium held the final review meeting at the NLR – Netherlands Aerospace Centre permises, and it was a success !

The consortium as a whole was thrilled that the project goals were fully achieved and that the strong synergy amongst partners has already sparked exciting new ideas for future cooperation and exploitation prospects.

Below a wrap up of key project results : 

  1. New insight into fatigue mechanisms​
  2. New high frequency test methods commercialised via a spin-off (XCTE)
  3. Contribution to revision of CHADA meta-data standard (supporting FAIR open data practice)​
  4. Large publicly available database of fatigue data (900+ experiments) freely available via Zenodo
  5. Advances in AI enabled modelling integrated in commercial tools (Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence)​
  6. LCA and Techno-social acceptance studies​
  7. Free online training resources (D-STANDART Academy)

Along the way, some important lessons about the challenges of implementing AI-based surrogate models in finite element analysis and on the difficulties of capturing meta-data in a way that is both human and machine readable.

Feedbacks received from our reviewer and Project Officer at the event :

  • Impressive work
  • Excellent team
  • Clear path forward for future developments
  • Strong synergies and dissemination/ training potentil

Last station for D-STANDART but the beginning of a long-term European effort, with still several ongoing initiatives running, e.g. MatCHMaker – HorizonEU AddMorePower Horizon Europe project 101091621 AID4GREENEST Project CoBRAIN Project Knowskite-X and DigiPass-CSA

A heartfelt thank you to all contributors for their dedication, collaboration, and innovation throughout this journey: our team members but also our esteemed Advisory Board members for their precious insights.

Onward to the next chapter of composites durability!
