Materials Information Management for Composites

This web seminar is now complete.

Archived information

It can be hard to work with composite data because:

• composite systems are often complex, containing multiple materials and with factors such as processing route and geometry strongly impacting properties
  
  
• 'pedigree' or 'meta-' data (e.g., the processing history of a laminate) is particularly difficult to manage accurately and efficiently
  
  
• reference data and design tools for composites are not easy to access or use

Granta helps leading engineering organizations to manage their composite test data. With Granta tools they capture this data, analyze it, store it securely with all of its meta-data and inter-relationships, and provide practical, controlled access via a web browser or within FEA and other design software. They also get integrated access to key reference data and analysis tools from sources including CMH-17 (formerly Mil-Handbook-17), Agate, NCAMP, and IDES.

We will be presenting a web seminar to discuss this work on February 24.

What will you learn?

The seminar will help you to:

• Understand the requirements for best practice in composite data management - particularly in the handling of pedigree or meta-data - and learn why best practice is important
  
  
• Find out about practical software tools now in widespread use at leading aerospace organizations – including a demonstration of the GRANTA MI software system
  
  
• See integrated access to leading composite reference data sources and analysis tools
  
  
• See how GRANTA MI can now support seamless access to approved corporate materials data from within your designer's FEA packages

Who should join the web seminar?

Senior managers in engineering or materials and processes - your organization makes significant investments in composite testing, quality assurance, PLM and other engineering software systems, and the purchase and processing of materials. To fully exploit such investments, and to avoid risks due to incorrect, outdated, or untraceable data, it can be crucial to develop best practice in composite data management. Join us to find out more!

Composite experts - do you need to consolidate and use complex property data from disparate sources? Do limitations in your control of test and analysis results mean that you duplicate work, or find it hard to trace the pedigree of design data? Do your designers sometimes use the wrong data? Join us to hear how other organizations have addressed the challenges of composite data management.

Designers and engineers - do you want to ensure that you are making the right materials decisions in your design process or using the right data in your simulations, without disrupting your well-established workflow? Join us to discover how you can do this by linking to the right materials information technology.
