Researchers have created a self-healing composite that is tougher than materials currently used in aircraft wings, turbine blades and other applications—and can repair itself more than 1,000 times.

The company’s engineering heritage, combined with continuous investment in process automation and digital manufacturing, ...

Analysis: Composite materials can already be found in everything from boat hulls, to cars, and wind turbine blades. What about planes? Plastics are created from polymers, and it is these polymers that ...

Manufacturers benefit from advanced numerical simulations developed at the Bristol Composites Institute. Composite materials such as carbon-fibre reinforced polymers are important for large aerospace ...

The University of Texas at Arlington has received a $600,000 grant from Boeing to test composite components that officials believe will lead to longer-lasting aircraft and identify when those ...

This project aims to develop and validate bolted splice details for C-PSW/CF, a structural system designed for non-seismic regions like New York City and Boston. The focus is on areas where bolted ...
