Abstract
|
The University of Delaware was awarded Advanced Material Intelligent Processing Center: Next Generation Scalable Lean Manufacturing (N000140911011) in 2009. Program Manager Ignacio Perez. The objective in this grant focuses on design, analysis, process, materials, and automated manufacturing technologies at basic and applied levels of research that will enable a new streamline design process for maritime and next generation lean manufacturing. The research conducted under this grant continues to improve our understanding of the process physics and address manufacturing and material issues as we develop affordable composite molding processes for structures of interest to the Navy. The overarching goals are to develop processing, characterization and automation tools such as (i) process models and simulations (ii) property evaluation methodologies and development of material constitutive models, (iii) imbedded instrumentation for health monitoring and (iv) modular tooling and online sensing and control strategies for the next generation Navy composite structures and applications. The target has been to improve quality, repeatability, tolerances, and affordability through modeling and simulations, process control.
