Designing New Materials with Ansys Granta EduPack
This lecture highlights how materials have evolved over time and how this discovery and invention of new materials has expanded the usable property space for design. Engineers can use property charts created in Ansys Granta EduPack, such as strength vs. density, to target new materials to design. Special emphasis is placed on structural hybrids and limits in the design space are shown.
