Introduction to Design for Composites

If you're new to designing composite materials this course will give you the tools & techniques you need to confidently develop robust concept designs.

To ensure that we get the maximum benefit out of composite materials they must be carefully designed and often tailored to the particular use case.In this course we will give you an understanding of what requirements are important to consider in the composite world, along with a series of tools and techniques to start the generation of some robust concept designs.What we’ll cover:✓ The composite prototype lifecycle✓ Requirements capture✓ Materials and process selection✓ The principles of Classical Laminate Analysis✓ Laminate stacking sequence guidelines✓ Some common composite design guidelines
