PhD title for Ramona Sitohang
We welcome another brand new Doctor of Philosophy in our midst!
On January 27th, Ramona Sitohang successfully defended her dissertation entitled: "Effect of In-plane Waviness Defects on Compressive Failure of Thermoplastic Composite Laminates". Ramona has performed her research at the TPRC in close cooperation with the Production Technology research group of Prof. Dr. Ir. Remko Akkerman from the University of Twente.
Ramona’s work provides a fundamental understanding of the effects of defects induced during the manufacturing of thermoplastic composite parts and contributes to extending the application window.
The financial support from the Province of Overijssel for improving the regional knowledge is gratefully acknowledged.
