Course structure

This five day course includes lectures and hands on lab based computer sessions to support the design and optimisation of different composite structures, developed during the theoretical sessions and validated against available analytical solutions (ESDU datasheets). All delegates will receive a Certificate of Attendance upon completion of this course.

What you will learn

This course aims to:

• Enhance awareness of engineers and designers of the problem areas pertaining to composites and to promote good design practice
• Provide an understanding of the underlying principles and techniques associated with the stress analysis and strength predictions of composite material structures
• Provide a hands-on experience of the solution methods and procedures pertaining to the analysis of real structural problems
• Illustrate the influence of fibre orientation and stacking sequence in laminated construction in determining the optimal response to specified loading
• Introduce the basics of impact damage and crashworthiness in composites.

Core content

• Introduction to Composite Materials
• Analysis of an Individual Ply
• Macro-mechanics of a Laminate
• Fatigue and Damage Tolerance of Composite Structures
• Repair of Composite Structures
• Failure Analysis of Composite Structures
• Impact of Composite Structures
• Crashworthiness of Composite Structures
