MET 4370 - Advanced Composite Structures: Design, Damage, Repair and Testing

Credits: 3

Prerequisite(s): MET 3215 with a grade of “C” or better

Description: This lecture/laboratory course is the introduction of the student to the characterization methods for the anisotropic properties of advanced composite materials consisting of high-performance fibers suspended in polymeric matrices. This course includes study and practical application of design, damage control, composite repair, processes and tooling. Also overviews the concepts, principles, and methods employed for nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of composite structures and materials.
