Boston Materials (Billerica, Mass., U.S.) was formed in 2016 by Anvesh Gurijala, Michael Segal and Dr. Randall Erb as a spin-out from Northeastern University (Boston, Mass., U.S.) to commercialize a ...
We’re talking about composites, which are basically materials made from two or more different components. Think of it like a ...
An international research group has engineered a novel high-strength flexible device by combining piezoelectric composites with unidirectional carbon fiber (UDCF), an anisotropic material that ...
When first introduced to mechanical testing of composite materials, one can be confused, even overwhelmed, by the number of available test standards. One reason for this large variety of tests is the ...
Although we have seen "morphing" structural materials before, they typically incorporate solenoids, pumps or motors that add weight and complexity. Now, however, scientists have developed a carbon ...
GKN Aerospace has become the first company in the UK to use one of the British National Composites Centre (NCC)'s new automated fiber placement machines. Automation of composite manufacturing in ...
Carbon fibers, due to their superior strength and lightness, are popular in aerospace engineering applications. While much effort goes into improving the strength of carbon fiber composites, such as ...

Carbon fiber everywhere—where it matters most
Carbon fiber has quietly become the material of choice wherever performance really counts, from jets and race cars to bikes and rackets. It is not just a cool woven pattern, it is a deliberate way to ...
