Project description

This is a mutli-disciplinary project where each partner provides expertise in a different discipline; UGent-Belgium in fretting fatigue, UL-Luxemburg in advanced discretisation methods for fracture and JSI-Slovenia in parallel computing. The collaboration between the three partners, within the Project Lead Agency programmes FWO/FNR and FWO/ARRS, aims to further develop the understanding of fretting fatigue problem.
