The application of composite materials in structural industrial components of large volume production is strongly growing year by year due to both increase in the demand and continuous improvements in the manufacturing processes associated to the reduction of the production cost. This highlights the need of reliable tools for an effective and safe design of composite components. For the complete and proper exploitation of composite materials further efforts are therefore required and the seminar aims to give a contribution in this direction, representing first of all a forum for researchers, scientist, engineers and designers, both of academic and industrial field, for exchanging ideas, proposing new solutions or even to put on the table questions still open. The development of design procedures, the integration between testing, design and process are therefore among the subjects expected to be discussed during the seminar.
The seminar main topics are:
- Structural component design and optimization
- Failure analysis
- Mechanics of materials and mechanical properties
- Fatigue and fracture
- Damage characterization and analysis
- NDT methods
- Analytical and numerical modeling
- Processing and properties
The Seminar is organized by the Department of Management and Engineering - University of Padova in co-operation with TCN Consortium
Although the deadline for abstract submission was the 17th of March is still possible to submit, in short time, an abstract proposal.
