The growth of an industry
This second of a three-part series highlighting the centennial of
flight focuses on how World War I and II changed the face of
aviation technology.
Portable test system
Boeing uses VXI via KineticSystems to achieve greater
dependability, accuracy, and efficiency in its digital distortion
analyzer for propulsion systems.
Fire-resistant composites for engine
nacelles
Engineers from Boeing treated fiberglass/polyimide and
graphite/polyimide laminates with various phosphorylated polymers
to obtain fire-resistant resins for use in harsh environments.
Accelerating the design process
The use of desktop analysis software can lead to a faster and more
efficient process for the design and manufacture of aerospace
components, according to SolidWorks.
