Hi Guys,
currently im executing my bachelor thesis with the task to create a process for developing ideal composite structures with Altair Hyperworks.
To get used to the software I carried out all tutorials of the Academic Training Centre concerning the analysis and optimization of composites.
(for example: Composite Optimization Student Monocoque, Skateboard and Bike Frame)
Well, the software still appears pretty extensive to me and I fail in gaining a foothold.
Now to my question:
Do you guys know any other sources of tutorials or helpful instructions for composite analysis and optimization?
Do you have any tips how to get started?
My personal objective is to develop a structure (for example an airplane door) which is a leight weight construction consisting of composite material but though its ideal designed (ply orientation, ply thickness, ply numbers) for specific loads.
I hope you can help me. Thank you in anticipation.
