INTEGRATED MULTISCALE DESIGN AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURE OF MULTIFUNCTIONAL COMPOSITES
Abstract
Future DoD applications require quick turn-over cycles for products made from new multifunctional materials and composites. As a result, considerable value can be captured through design and manufacturing processes that are highly integrated – ideally through a digital thread that seamlessly integrates concept generation, design, manufacturing, and insertion. This can lead to more rapid exploitation of new manufacturing, design, and materials technologies, shortening of supply chains, and faster certification of new materials and products. This also has the potential to enable the digital design and manufacture of products created from multifunctional digital composites with unprecedented behavior and functionality that can be tailored in an application-specific manner. The goal of this proposed work is to greatly expedite the development of new multifunctional composites and products by establishing new digital design-manufacturing paradigms.
