Short Course On FRP Composites: Overview, Characterization, Analysis, Design and Applications

Background

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite are now being extensively used as primary and secondary load bearing structures in many industries like aerospace, automobile, civil infrastructure, wind energy, marine and sports. .

 

The feature of custom tailored properties and heterogeneous nature offered by composites call for special attention to their characterization.  Testing of heterogeneous and anisotropic FRP materials poses several challenges like numerous parameter identification, development of specific test methodology and fixtures etc. As a whole, the knowledge of fabrication methods, accurate machining and testing methodology is essential for researchers and practicing engineers from design and manufacturing perspective.

 

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This short course is for all industry and research professionals involved in development and usage of FRP composites; material characterization; life prediction; damage assessment and repair aspects of FRP composite structures. Engineers and designers in both private and public organization will benefit. This course will provide an excellent exposure on FRP composite to young scientists, research scholars and teachers at the universities and private engineering colleges.

 

LEARNING OUTCOMES

This short course is aimed at providing an overview of composites, its application, manufacturing and testing methodologies .
