Abstract

This paper aims at the development of advanced composite materials with high strength to radiations, with applications in automotive industry but also in making automotive components to reduce their weight and manufacturing costs, as well as to improve recycling, in the same time meeting the structural and performance of passive protection. A composite material may be subjected to radiations because it is part of a constituent material operating in an environment with radiations or may be subjected to radiations deliberately, in order to obtain superior properties of the material. In this second sense, the challenge is to achieve high structural static and dynamic performances, by developing composite materials with enhanced properties that bring better value to the concept of composite type structure..
