    Description
    This lecture/laboratory course introduces the student to more advanced manufacturing characterization methods unique to isotropic and anisotropic properties found in intermediate composite materials. Mapping of the performance characteristics unique to objects featuring wood, polymers, and high-performance fibers is used to optimize material selection in hybrid manufacturing. This course includes the practical application of intermediate processes and tooling unique to small to medium-sized fabrication organizations. It also reviews the concepts, principles, and methods employed for the destructive and nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of composite structures and materials to comply with industry certification objectives.
