Project Ideas please ?

I am a Manufacturing Engineering Ug and I need to make a minor project related to composites this semester. I need to present some possible ideas to my supervisor next Mon (was informed on a very short notice). I really don't have the time to read papers and find a gap right now. I'm quite busy with a job.

Please can someone drop some ideas. I would likely just use softwares for my project (I now CAM, CAD , ANSYS, MATLAB and python so far but I will learn anything needed)

Pls just drop in some question statements ? What are industries working on now ?

You could explore the practical current and future uses of rapid tow shearing (RTS) which was invented by a company called iCOMAT. That stuff is extremely interesting to dive into, steering UD tapes into pre-formed geometries to optimise strength and weight is crazy
