Summary

This webinar takes a deep dive into the world of composite engineering. It provides insight into key design considerations helping you to future proof your solutions and satisfy customer needs.

In this webinar we cover composite engineering through the engineering lifecycle from design to analysis, manufacture and certification. The journey of composites begins with their constituent elements, where special considerations must be made before conceptual design. Analysis is carried out in conjunction with design phase, through multiple loops to ensure an efficient structure. Manufacturing is also considered at every stage of development and is one of the most important aspects of the process. Finally quality assessments, testing and certification is covered.

The interconnectivity of each aspect of engineering is extremely important with composites and is discussed in detail during the webinar. Emphasis is placed on real world applications, based on significant experience from the aerospace sector.
