DOMMINIO

The aim of the EU-funded DOMMINIO project is to develop an innovative data-driven methodology for the design, manufacture and certification of multifunctional and intelligent airframe parts. The project will use a cost-effective, flexible and multi-stage manufacturing system that will combine automated strip laying and automated fiber placement to produce high quality composite laminates and 3D printed reinforcements.

Advanced simulation tools, online process and quality monitoring, and structural health monitoring systems will help optimize the design of aircraft parts. The multi-stage production systems and digital pipeline will be tested and validated in the laboratory on two representative parts of the airframe – a multi-functional access door panel and a wing tip prototype.
