Composites test data in selector

摘要

Granta Design is to integrate an extensive collection of material data from Firehole Composites into the upcoming releases of its CES Selector and Granta MI software. The result will enable engineers to navigate unfamiliar and complex composite data, to compare composites with the fall range of materials options, and to choose the right material for their application. The Firehole Composites materials database covers over 300 composite grades and is compiled from manufacturers' data, leading testing labs, and research projects. Around 1,000 data records cover the different test conditions that are critical to composite users such as room temperature dry, elevated temperature wet. The data provides information on the composite constituents, suppliers, and forms, plus properties derived from testing. A consistent
