Aerospace engineers face constant trade-offs between weight and manufacturability. With HyperX® and HyperXpert® from Collier Aerospace, they can optimise lighter, more cost-effective composite ...

Beyond the obvious lightweighting advantages, the thing that makes composites so appealing to the aerospace market is the variability that permits engineers to tailor laminates to a wide range of ...

Aerospace structures form the backbone of modern air and spacecraft, where an intricate balance between material performance, structural design and manufacturing precision is essential. These ...

The performance of the final product depends heavily on the degree of cure - making it critical to ensure that the reaction goes to completion for the highest quality and reliability. Achieving this ...

Objective The NABUCCO project aims to develop radically new concepts of adaptive and buckling-driven composite structures for next generation aircraft. In aeronautics, buckling is generally avoided ...

Software for designing shell structures can find the best balance between weight and strength, and assist with trade-offs that accompany such design tasks. San Diego, Calif. Anyone designing ...
