C.M. Iványi (Charlotte)

Biography

I am born in Amsterdam but grew up in Brno, Czech Republic. I came back to the Netherlands to study aerospace engineering at the TU Delft. After my bachelor I joined a dream team, where I enjoyed the production phase and working with composite materials a lot. Therefore, I chose Aerospace Structures and Materials as a master track. I find the link between material science and manufacturing techniques particularly interesting, which makes Aerospace Manufacturing Technologies the perfect group for my thesis.

Next to my studies I work at the Dutch Ministry of Defence for Defensity College. I spend most of my free time doing sports (I am currently training for a triathlon) and I like to read and cook.

Master Thesis Project

During my thesis I will study the melting kinetics of thermoplastic composite tapes during Laser Assisted Fiber Placement (LAFP).
