The aim of AS10 is to evaluate technologies that can be integrated directly into structures with the target of creating an electrical structural network (ESN) while reducing weight and improving survivability of composite structures. These investigations are based on various technologies and materials from nanomaterials to metallic strips and coatings. The metallic strip concept is based on the merging of materials at macro- and meso-element scale level, using conventional manufacturing technologies. The innovative development consists of a preassembled semi-product composed of an aluminium strip and a nonvulcanized rubber that is cobonded to the composite frame part while curing the structure. This paper presents the metallic strip design and manufacturing choice, the thermomechanical experimentation and modelling conclusion, the impact coupon test results and conclusion on damage tolerance and detectability of impacts, the electrical current distribution simulation and test and finally the electrothermal behaviour results and conclusion.
