“Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) Impacts on Aerospace Industry and New Frontiers in Digital Transformation”
As both a pioneer and current market leader in Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) technologies, QuesTek Innovations is continuously both aware of, and contributing to, important marketplace trends.
Key strategic drivers such as Digital Transformation, Industry 4.0 technologies and emerging “Materials 4.0” initiatives are moving the ICME marketspace. Tactical process and application dimensions, such as the realization by many corporations, service bureaus, and printer providers that deploying additive manufacturing at scale requires mastery of ICME first, are also fueling interest in ICME.
These tops-down and bottoms-up dynamics are contributing to a “democratization” of ICME, and a strong industry demand for a broader, more widespread comprehension and application of ICME capabilities to remain competitive.
This presentation will review impactful success stories of using ICME to design and deploy novel advanced materials in space and aerospace applications.
In response to these market dynamics, this presentation will also review the powerful capabilities of QuesTek’s new ICME-based ICMD® Digital Materials Design Platform, available in a cloud-based, Integrated Digital Environment. A summary of how QuesTek software, genomic datasets, physics-based mechanistic models and methodologies, proven over 25 years of services engagements, can enable materials-responsible engineers to simulate, analyze, design, qualify, certify and deploy novel materials or optimize existing materials and processes much more rapidly and at lower cost than traditional trial and error methods.
