The use of carbonfibre and other composite materials is rapidly expanding and pervades all markets. Carbonfibre had an estimated annual growth of 12% from 2012–2018. The strongest demand for carbonfibre composites comes from aircraft and aerospace, wind energy and the automotive industry. This means that if you want to go into the composites world, the opportunities for you are huge.
CSAMs is designed to be easy to use. It is great for the beginner, the graduate/practicing engineer and the fabricator. Start your initial composite designs with CSAMs. With CSAMs, you can make rapid composite laminate architecture design investigations to meet stiffness, strength and minimum weight requirements. Determine the equivalent Young’s Modulus, allowable strength, volume and weight fraction, laid down ply-thickness and other properties of continuous and chopped strand mat (CSM) fibre composites. Hybrid composites can also be designed with CSAMs. CSAMs caters for uni-directional, 0/90, 90 deg and +/-45 deg plies of different gsms of carbonfibre, glassfibre and kevlar.
A basic manual is included with the software.
