Material & Structure seminar
Congratulations to all the students of Material & Structure seminar of winter semester 2019/2020!
After a whole semester of intense work on their small scale structural prototypes made from various natural fibre reinforced composite materials, on Tuesday 04.02.2020 they presented their final versions. We were amazed with the very high level of all demonstrators and how successfully ambitious fabrication goals were achieved by all teams.
