Ship and nautical design
extended abstract
Materials and structures for marine applications often require to combine high mechanical performance with lightness. Sandwich structures based on polymeric or metallic cores are traditional lightweight solutions for marine applications. However, common sandwich structures do not always offer a suitable protection from some ordinary in-service events such as low-velocity impacts with floating...

Naval architecture and marine engineering evolution
extended abstract + paper
The strip-planking technique, which is based on the use of glued-laminated wood, is characterized by many interesting features for wood boatbuilding. The main advantages offered are an easier construction process along with a better exploitation of the mechanical properties of the materials. In order to investigate the response of a particular glued-laminated wooden panel (made by Douglas fir...
