Daniel Eiroa Martínez

Having completed her Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, she pursued a Master’s degree in Industrial Engineering at the Polytechnic School of Engineering of Ferrol (UDC). Thanks to funding awarded under the Xunta de Galicia’s Predoctoral Support Program (2025), she is currently developing her doctoral thesis in the Structural Mechanics Group (GME) at the Higher Technical School of Civil Engineering (ETSI). Her research is part of the AEROSAFE project, which focuses on structural optimization for designing safe, efficient, and damage-tolerant aerostructures under extreme loads in both subsonic and supersonic regimes.

The main objective of their work is the optimal design of integral multicellular structures that improve efficiency and reduce environmental impact throughout the aircraft’s life cycle. To this end, they address the optimal design of cryogenic fuel storage systems (liquid hydrogen, LH2) and the stiffening system to withstand potential structural damage. This related research contributes to the development of knowledge on innovative aerostructures that address global challenges in terms of weight reduction, fuel consumption, and emissions, supporting cutting-edge technological advancement in the aerospace sector.
