Note: This course may be taught by one or both instructors.
The course provides an understanding of available fiber and matrix materials, manufacturing methods, and the mechanical behavior of composite materials for the design of airframe structures. The course topics include: material behavior, selection and cost; general anisotropic theory, elastic behavior and stiffness matrix formulation; computer-aided analysis; strength and theory of failure; fatigue and damage tolerance assessment; and repairability.
Designed for practicing design and structural engineers, educators and engineering managers whose responsibilities include aircraft structures.
Includes instruction, a course notebook, Composite Airframe Structures, by Michael Niu, refreshments and five lunches. The course notes are for participants only and are not for sale.
Fees: See fee information for individual classes in the registration column on the right side of this page.
Class time: 35 hours • 3.5 CEUs
"Max Kismarton mixed just enough theory with reality to show how composites are and will continue to be the way to build aircraft." — Doug Solberg, The Boeing Company
"An excellent composites course. The instructor provided numerous examples of good and bad practical applications. A wealth of knowledge and experience was communicated." — Robert Fullerton, Bombardier-Learjet
