View this webinar on-demand
Accelerated Insertion of Materials (AIM) is a methodology for rapidly qualifying materials for specific applications by coupling modeling, simulation and testing across all stages of component and material development.
This allows for:
-rapidly iterating on design concepts that will be most beneficial to the target application,
-combining the aleatory uncertainty of the real manufacturing process and the epistemic uncertainty captured by simulation to predict distributions of material performance, and
-predicting minimum material properties on a full-scale production level using a minimum amount of experimental testing.
