Wichita State University's National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) will offer an introductory course designed to give technicians, engineers, analysts and inspectors hands-on experience in advanced composite material manufacturing, nondestructive inspection techniques, damage surveys and other composite-handling techniques.
The course is designed to expose attendees to various aspects of composite manufacturing, inspections, repair and testing. Designed as a supplemental course for composite theory classes, the class time is maximized for attendees to get hands-on experience. Specifically, the course will introduce trainees to:
- Day 1: Fabrication of monolithic and sandwich parts
- Day 2: Composite repair
- Day 3: Joining of composite structures
- Day 4: Mechanical testing and failure analysis
The course will take place April 5-8 at the National Center for Aviation Training. The registration deadline is Monday, March 28.
The course is based on a successful series of courses developed specifically for industry.
