Accelerated Insertion of Materials - Composites. A New Way to Design Composite Structures

Abstract

AIM-C is a methodology for accelerated insertion of materials into defense structures at reduced costs. This methodology develops a design knowledge database that links what is known about a material system to what is needed in order to quality its application to an application that meets certification requirements. It allows rapid identification of which applications are too risky and which are not. It uses verified analysis methods, existing test data, and lessons learned from previous experience to minimize the amount of data required to insert new materials into a system with confidence.
