Popis: Composite materials offer the possibility to design tailored laminates for a broad spectrum of applications such as airplane wings or monocoques in the automotive industry. Especially when carbon fiber reinforced plastic is used, parts with enormous performance can be designed. The downside of designing a laminate is the complexity of the task itself, as well as the price of the carbon fiber. Placing the expensive carbon fiber only at the necessary positions can help to reduce the costs of the parts and to increase the performance, specifically the stiffness, compared to a glass fiber laminate itself. Designing the laminate gets even harder, an algorithm is needed to support the engineer in this task.
