This schematic shows an engineered material with composite layers. Layers of carbon fibers (the long silver tubes) have microscopic forests of carbon nanotubes between them (the array of tiny brown ...

Compositing is the process of taking several visual elements from different sources and combining them into a single video. The video effects (VFX) technique is usually used to imply that the elements ...

The “Lego-like” construction and analysis method proposed in the study enables fast and accurate virtual testing of composite laminates, leading to optimal designs while saving time and material costs ...

The newest Airbus and Boeing passenger jets flying today are made primarily from advanced composite materials such as carbon fiber reinforced plastic — extremely light, durable materials that reduce ...

Apple on Sunday announced Shake 4, a new version of its compositing software for film and television visual effects. The software now features 3D multi-plane compositing capabilities, optical flow ...

Laminated fiber-reinforced composite materials are being used in more and more engineering applications. These materials have excellent strength-to-weight ratios and the manufacturing processes that ...
