I am going to describe the uses of composite materials in aircrafts I am going to describe the uses of composite materials in aircrafts. I am going to describe all the composite materials used in a aircrafts and sports equipment, also going to say the disadvantages and the advantages of composite materials

Glass reinforced plastic is a composite material or fibre-reinforced made from of a plastic reinforced by the fine fibres made of glass. Like graphite-reinforced plastic, the composite material is commonly referred to by the name of its reinforcing fibres (fibreglass). The plastic is most often polyester.

Carbon fibre reinforced plastic or CFRP or CRP, is a strong, light very expensive composite material or fibre reinforced plastic. Similar to glass-reinforced plastics, which is sometimes simply called fibreglass, the composite material is commonly referred to by the name of its reinforcing fibres.

The different types of composite materials used in aircrafts are Graphite, Hybrid, Toughened Graphite and Fibreglass these are all composite materials in an aircraft

The advantages of using composite materials in aircrafts are:- They are very strong, They do not rust, You can bend them into different shapes without them breaking, They are also very light. These are why aircrafts will use composite materials.

There are plenty of different people who will work with composite materials, these are listed below:-Engineer, Scientists, Technician, Faculty (Research) and business’

Engineers apply technology to build things Engineers apply technology to build things. When it comes to building composites, just about all engineering disciplines can be involved. Specific engineering tasks include stress analysis, structural design, materials processing, control systems, industrial processes, testing, and more. Engineers must have an undergraduate degree, and many have masters degrees. Doctorates are less common.

At the risk of over simplifying things, scientists develop the technologies that engineers apply. In general, then they are more involved in the basic research such as materials development and structural theory. Of course, many engineers perform research, and many scientists work on engineering applications. Most scientists have doctorates: fewer stop at a masters or bachelors.

At the risk of oversimplifying again, technicians are the people who do most of the hands on work. The lay up composites, do the machining, and produce the drawings. Technicians develop highly specialized skills most of which are learned on the job.

University faculty can either be scientists or engineers, and they nearly always have doctoral degrees. The professor in engineering focus on the manufacture of a specific product. The research may be oriented towards the interests in manufacturing processes.

I have written about all the composite materials used in the building of aircrafts and the production of sports equipment. I have described the advantages and disadvantages used.
