MODELSTEELCOMP
The main goal of the ICON project ModelSteelComp was the development of a validated predictive model of mechanical behavior and electromagnetic properties of steel fiber reinforced composites with a focus on short random steel fiber composites.
Today, missing durability simulation tools are a key restricting factor for using more composites in applications, including automotive.
The developed models need to be advanced towards industrial simulation environment. This includes selection of a number of industrial cases for software validation.

This project is part of:
Next generation nano-engineered polymer hybrids: developing structural composite materials with increased durability, improved recyclability and low weight.
