Composites: Materials / Process and Defects Analysis
Discover composite materials and its most commonly used manufacturing processes through application examples. The presentation will also discuss the main defects encountered and the parameters involved.
Topics covered during the presentation:
– Composites: Overview
– What do we call “composites”?
– Composites: Main manufacturing processes
– Main defects encountered in composites parts
– Concept of defects harmfulness
– How to detect these defects? Non-destructive tests (NDT) applied to composites
