Day 2: Worskshop Sessions

Workshop 1: Affordable Composites

Cost optimization is one of the key stakes for all industrial production, and even more specifically for automotive industry. This will be addressed through an Introduction to Multi-Scale Material Modelling, Metal Replacement for Lightweighting & Cost Reduction, Multi-Scale Modelling for Affordable Composite Solutions (CFRP) and Additive Manufacturing (SLS & FDM) of Reinforced Polymers. Brought to you by e-Xstream engineering.

Workshop 2: Development and Industrial Commercialization of Composite Materials

Meeting the needs of the automotive industry in terms of innovation and development remains a challenge for the widespread adoption of composite materials. In an attempt to give an overview of the latest advances, this workshop will delve into Composite Molds and Tooling, Composite Systems and Materials as well as Bioderived Polymers, and will conclude with an interactive panel on the Industry Perspective on Commercialization. Brought to you by Oak Ridge National Laboratory

Workshop 3: Partnerships and Innovations in Composite Manufacturing

The Institute for Advanced Composites Manufacturing Innovation, IACMI, delivers a public-private partnership to increase domestic production capacity, grow manufacturing and create jobs across the US composite industry. As such, its leaders will present various Partnerships and Innovations, Technical Projects and their Results, and point out the Challenges and Opportunities of Composite Materials Recyclability. Brought to you by IACM. Register online before the event
