Fire Integrity in Advanced Ship Structures Keywords: Composites, fire damage, structure, modeling, CFD, BDAR, heat transfer Abstract: Composite materials are increasingly being used as structural components in new Navy platforms such as the DDG-1000 Zumwalt destroyer. Engineers need cost effective desktop modeling tools to predict the residual structural integrity of non-traditional composite materials during and after a damaging fire. Established for 25 years, this engineering firm specializes in aircraft, ship and ground vehicle survivability. It has developed a cost effective desktop modeling tool (Apollo) suitable for multi-core, multiprocessor desktop systems, providing engineers with interactive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses to predict the residual structural integrity of non-traditional composite materials during and after a damaging fire. We are seeking partners in the Defense Acquisition community to transition Apollo as an engineering fire-growth modeling tool, evaluating the structural integrity of composites in their systems. Presentation: Wednesday, 2:05pm - 2:25pm in Washington Room A Booth: 511 |
