You'll take the core modules below. Fundamentals of Composite Materials Learn the fundamental concepts, including the mechanical properties and characterisation of composite materials, including composite systems. Advanced Manufacturing Cover the manufacturing principles and processes of composite materials and develop a deeper understanding of the relationship between material design, processing and properties. Lightweight Structures Broaden your understanding of the mechanics of composite materials and foams, including sandwich construction. Analytical Characterisation of Composite Materials Discover advanced analytical techniques used to characterise polymer, fibre and fibre-matrix interfaces’ properties. Composite Engineering Practice Develop the knowledge and skills to engage in the practical and hands-on aspect of composite engineering in a multi-disciplinary design environment. You'll choose two of the following modules. Finite Elements Gain an in-depth understanding of the theory and practice of finite element methods and learn to apply this to solving real-life structural problems. Innovation Management Cover key principles of innovation management from knowledge co-creation to developing sustainable business models. Structural Integrity and Health Monitoring Gain an in-depth knowledge of the fundamentals of safe design and learn to apply damage detection techniques to different types of structures. Computational Mechanics Explore advanced concepts in the application of the finite element method to the analysis of aerostructures. Composite Innovation – Nanocomposites and Structural Power Learn about the latest composite innovations including nanophase reinforced composites and multifunctional composites. You will choose a research topic from a list of areas relevant to composites science and technology in the autumn term. From May until the end of your studies, you will have only your research project to complete. The projects are normally conducted at Imperial, but can be taken in industry.
