When airplanes and automobiles were newfangled inventions a century ago, they contained parts crafted from wood or metal. Today, aircraft...
UD-CCM recently revealed a new composite material feedstock at the Defense Manufacturing Conference held in Nashville, TN, December 3-6, 2018. Under the DARPA TFF program, the UD-CCM led-team developed a novel discontinuous carbon fiber composite feedstock with equivalent properties to continuous fi...
The U.S. Navy is moving towards higher utilization of composites to reduce weight and improve structural properties, while meeting other requirements including cost, maintenance and signature control. Structures fabricated from unidirectional prepreg laminae processed using autoclave exhibit the hig...
