Location & approach

By car

From highway “A1”

At intersection “Dortmund/Unna” change to highway “A44” in the direction of Dortmund, which becomes the B1. Take the exit “Dortmund-Dorstfeld”, in the direction of “Universität”. Turn right onto “Planetenfeldstraße”, after 850 meters turn left onto “Otto-Hahn-Straße”. After 1 km turn right onto “Marie-Curie-Allee”, after 550 meters keep slightly right to stay on “Baroper Straße”.

From highway “A45”

Take the exit “Dortmund-Eichlinghofen”, in the direction of “Universität”. Turn right onto “Stockumer Straße”, after 800 meters turn left onto “Baroper Straße”.

Please use parking lot entrances 40 or 41 for access to the “Maschinenbau III” building or entrance 42 for access to the Experimental Hall.

By bus and train

Arrival with DB to Dortmund or Bochum central station.
From Dortmund central station take the interurban train line S1 in the direction of Düsseldorf and get off at the stop “Dortmund Universität S”.
From Bochum central station with the interurban train line S1 in the direction of Dortmund and get off at the stop “Dortmund Universität S”
From the interurban stop “Dortmund Universität S”, take the elevated railway (“H-Bahn” stop “Universität S”) to the stop “Campus Süd”.

By plane

From Dortmund Airport

Take a cab to the TU Dortmund University, South Campus (“Campus Süd”) or take the AirportExpress in 20 min. to Dortmund central station. From there take the interurban train line S1 line in the direction of Düsseldorf to the stop “Dortmund Universität S” and from there the elevated railway (“H-Bahn”) to “Campus Süd”.

From Düsseldorf Airport

Take the interurban train line S1 in the direction of Dortmund and get off at the stop “Dortmund Universität S”. From here, take the elevated railway (“H-Bahn”) in the direction of “Campus Süd”.

Plan of site & interactive map

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are spread over two campuses, the larger Campus North and the smaller Campus South. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent "Technologiepark".

Scheme of the cyclic tensile test and experimentally determined elastic and plastic strains

Funding	BMWi/DLR
Project	20W1905C
Contact	Florian Weber M. Sc.

In collaboration with PFW Aerospace, Steitz Präzisionstechnik. and the Fraunhofer Institute of Nondestructive Testing (IZFP), the Institute of Forming Technology and Lightweight Components (IUL) is working on this joint project since July 2020. By using the forming processes of hydraulic and electromagnetic expansion, a metallic (aluminum alloy 6061 T6) tube and a thermoplastic (polyetheretherketone, PEEK) tube are joined by a superposition of force-fit and form-fit. For the process design static and dynamic material properties are characterized. For the metallic joining partner, tensile tests as well as an inverse parameter identification via an electromagnetic ring expansion test are conducted. The material behavior of the PEEK is determined, i.a. by cyclic tensile tests, to separate elastic from plastic strains. Plastic true strains rise significantly above a value of total true strains of 0.038 and elastic true strains decrease for total true strains above 11% (see figure).
