Engineering estimates that are generated by METYCALC are based on engineering principles and empirical data and can be useful for approximate sizing of composite laminates and for comparing various ...

Anaglyph Ltd are proud to announce the release of Version 5 of Laminate Tools. This new version marks a major milestone. Apart from the many visible new important features, a number of fundamental ...

Researchers have created a self-healing composite that is tougher than materials currently used in aircraft wings, turbine blades and other applications—and can repair itself more than 1,000 times.

There are multiple ways to make composites using Helicoid Industries’ patented technology — including AFP, hand layup and filament winding — where the rotation of each ply in a composite laminate (top ...

“Self-responsive” nanomaterial-based composites AMRC’s Matthew Collinson (top photo) inspects a composite demonstrator component incorporating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and copper contacts to enable ...

To assess durability, the team built an automated system that repeatedly applied tensile force to a composite with a ...

Rogers Corporation has introduced RT/duroid(tm) 6035HTC, a new high-thermal-conductivity (HTC) laminate material engineered for low loss in high-power circuits. Rogers Corporation has introduced ...

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) are lightweight—yet strong and durable—materials with potential applications in aerospace and transportation. However, time-consuming experiments are required ...

Researchers recently developed a quasi-3D extend finite element method, a novel and computationally efficient method for simulating damage propagation in CFRP laminates. Their technique may make CFRP ...
