An oft-cited concern is that new engineers are not exposed to composites as part of their materials science courses.

Advanced CT-scan analyses can offer deep insight into challenges faced when examining novel composites and hybrid material behavior or performing quality and certification testing. Part two of a two-part series. 

Versatile sandwich panel technology solves decades-long exterior automotive challenge.

All-composite docks best concrete in cost and time and aim toward future fastener-less construction for greater savings and sustainability.

As the global thirst for drinkable water increases, the composites industry is drinking in the tremendous possibilities in seawater desalination.

There’s a new report out from EPTA (European Pultrusion Technology Assn., Frankfurt am Main, Germany) that discusses new trends for pultrusion in building and construction.

When I graduated from Virginia Polytechnic Institute, most of my chemical engineering classmates went to work for major chemical or oil companies. Based on my Co-op experiences in a fertilizer pilot plant, I knew that I didn’t want a career doing what ChE’s are typically trained and expected to do. As fortune would

A new design aims to defeat the threat from debris, both as heavy piles preventing exit and as projectiles traveling at ballistic speeds.

When the Cape Town, South Africa, Transnet National Ports Authority began a 12-month effort to expand its facility and upgrade its existing quays (wharfs), engineers realized that the Authority had a safety problem at its main container quay. Composites provided the solution.

Building composite wind turbine towers is not a new idea. For more than a decade, government- and industry-funded projects have explored the possibility of a utility-scale composite tower.
