PERIOD: MARCH - APRIL - MAY Aim of the course is to provide the detail knowledge on the main manufacturing processes actually used in the aerospace industry for the realization of primary structures by advanced composite materials and autoclave curing cycles.

Production of most important fibres (graphite, glass, aramide and boron) normally used for structural applications. Advanced composite polymeric or metal matrix or ceramic matrix. Requirements and properties. Health and Safety information. Automatic fibre placement lay-up. Autoclave curing cycles by vacuum bag process or press cycle; poltrusion, SMC, RTM, RFI. Additive Manufacturing for realization of small elements. Several examples of aerospace structures (fuselage, wing, tails, satellite, etc.) shall be shown. Physical and mechanical (static, fatigue and impact) test characteristic and requirements of composite materials for aeronautical applications. The non-destructive techniques (NDT) will be presented and discussed for the assessment of product quality or the detection of defects or delamination. The contribution of aerospace engineering of Aerospace Industries is expected.
