01
The La.S.T. lab is divided in two main branches, passive and active safety. Research on passive safety began in the Department of Aerospace Science and Technology in the late ‘60s leading to the constitution of the first academic crash laboratory in Italy. Our mission is to improve transportation safety through numerical simulations and experimental activities.
02
The scientific activity has mostly been devoted to fundamental combustion problems of solid-phase energetic materials, from both experimental and theoretical viewpoints, with specific attention to: steady burning rates and temperature profiles, radiant ignition.
03
The Experimental Aerodynamics Laboratory is provided with different wind tunnels of various dimensions, typology and test regimes. The complete experimental equipment allows carrying out a wide range of tests.
04
Tech Lab is divided into three main areas: Conventional technological processes. Composite and SMART Structures. Non-Destructive testing.
05
The laboratory is able to carry out several kinds of tests: from characterization tests on simple material coupons to full-scale tests on complete structures, i.e.: Material static, dynamic and fatigue characterization tests. Static tests; buckling tests; modal analysis tests; fatigue tests. Noise active control measure tests; low-energy impact tests.
