Flyways to Highways: How Advanced Composites and High Performance Materials Will Get You Where You’re Going
November 1 – 2, 2016
During our two-day workshop, we will have many industry experts and a variety of material and equipment suppliers on site. Our goal is to address any questions you may have and make sure you leave with the knowledge you need to be successful in your business. Below are some important announcements regarding the workshop.
Location:
Flyways to Highways will take place at the Center for Multifunctional Polymer Nanocomposites and Devices – CMPND facility. Parking is available onsite. Please plan to arrive prior to 8 a.m. to get checked in. Our workshop will begin promptly at 8:00 a.m. We will be serving breakfast and coffee so come hungry!

While not as critical in all aspects as aerospace composites, other applications from infrastructure to automotive need many of the same features and benefits delivered by Advanced Composites. Light-weighting, fatigue resistance, and repeatable construction are a few of the drivers to advanced composites from traditional materials . Combining better design discipline and total cost analysis, the value of advanced composites is often the solution to performance needs in a variety of composites parts.
Join us as we explore opportunities outside aerospace for these dynamic materials and processes.
What You’ll See and Learn:
- Engineering Rapid Preforms
