CDS Composite Design Analysis is a Windows software oriented toward material engineers and university students. There are instruments for performing complex analysis of composite laminates and conducting micromechanics calculations.

Brief description

With the help of this utility you can quickly determine the effective properties and responses of different composites and cylinders. Additionally, it is possible to view material rankings.

Users are able to calculate various properties of fiberglass, carbon, aluminum, silicone, kevlar and many other industrial materials. There is a massive collection of standard composites with predefined attributes.

Analysis

Instruments for evaluating failure properties of custom physical objects are provided. You can analyze composite structures that consist of multiple material types. An option to export the results to an Excel spreadsheet for further processing in Autograph or another similar program is included as well.

Overall, this app offers designers and engineers powerful tools for analyzing material structures and calculating effective properties of composite laminates.
