Abstract
The proposal TARGET aims to bridge the gap in joining technologies between different material types by combining additive manufacturing routes for metals and green fibre reinforced composites (g-FRPs) for individualized high-performance lightweight structures. The synergistic integration of mechanical interlocking by Additive Manufacturing (AM) techniques for metal and polymer-based materials will enable the development of high strength, damage tolerant, durable hybrid joining scheme for composite–metal structures. In this way, the disadvantages of the classical hybrid design with bolts and rivets can be eliminated, thus promoting a faster manufacturing and assembly without fasteners because fewer parts are necessary and the process steps for the assembly can be potentially automated.
