All trends indicate that composite aerostructures are continually getting more complex. This is due in large part to the fact that aircraft assemblies have huge volumes of highly interdependent design information. Creating the initial designs and making subsequent changes to these complex aerostructures is both time-consuming and error-prone. In this session you will learn how a tightly integrated suite of software and services for aerostructure development greatly increases the design and manufacturing efficiency as well as the quality of today's complex composite aircraft assemblies. In the aftermath of the first intensive, large commercial composite airframe programs, exemplified by the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, many aircraft manufacturers are selecting carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) as the structural material of choice for the fuselage and/or wing of their next project. This is true for all types and sizes of commercial airplanes, including large, regional, business and general aviation aircraft.
