This allows UDRI to go from problem definition, to an optimized and validated design, to a fabricated composite structure. The result is lighter, stiffer structures and the potential for subsystem ...

"The software can quickly and easily calculate the effective properties of composites and heterogeneous structures and materials including composite laminates, woven composites, stiffened structures, ...

Composite decking has a lot of benefits, but did you know there are downsides, too? Here is one specific downside to consider ...

the automotive industry has lacked a method to accurately and quantitatively characterize composite crush structure behavior. Testing is typically accomplished by axially crushing a round-cornered, ...

A team of international researchers led by King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia has ...

An international team led by HZB chemist Michelle Browne conducted a rigorous investigation that demonstrated the potential ...

A metamaterial is a composite material that exhibits unique properties due to its structure, and now researchers have used one featuring a small sawtooth pattern on its surface to move and position ...

The framing or support structure beneath your composite deck is another factor that can influence the total cost. Pressure-treated wood is the most common framing material; its cost ranges from $1 ...
