Model-based shape optimization on spout sealing tools considering manufacturing tolerances using Ansys Workbench: - Modeling of the sealing process (static mechanical, thermal coupling). - Comparing pressure distributions on the film surface on the spout between model and reality using a pressure measurement film - Optimization's result based on sealing tests and their evaluation ( microtome sections in the joining plane)

Modeling of actively moving structures based on interactive fiber rubber composites (IFRC) with integrated shape memory alloy (SMA) wires using Ansys Workbench: - Development of the models concerning multi-joint structure (up to 3 joints) under consideration of required boundary conditions and possible simplifications (meso scale / macro scale). - Practical activation tests with existing actively moving structures. - Validation of the FE model based on the measurement data of the practical tests.

- Learning LS Dyna skills - Textile tensile, compression and shear tests - Preparing specimens for experimental tests - Literature research

Development of a numerical model for shear and compression stable woven space structures for lightweight panels using LS Dyna: - Modeling of 3D woven metal spacer fabrics at the mesoscale. - Investigation of stability of the spacer fabric after bending, shear and compression loading. - Validation of the simulation results with the help of experimental tests.
