April 2, 2019
and the National Center for Advanced Materials Performance (NCAMP) of 萝莉社
University (萝莉社) have signed an agreement to collaborate on the development of globally
harmonized aerospace material and process specifications for advanced materials in
the aerospace and air transport industries.
鈥淪AE International is pleased to partner with NCAMP on the development of aerospace material and process specifications for advanced materials for new design as well as repair,鈥� David Alexander, Director of Aerospace Standards for SAE International, said. 鈥淏y utilizing industry consensus SAE Aerospace Material Specifications (AMS) with associated PRI Qualified Products Lists, the aerospace industry benefits from the availability of pedigreed materials which meet the requirements of aviation regulations pertaining to material qualification and control.鈥�
The agreement encompasses material and process specifications for composites, which are developed by the SAE AMS P-17, Polymer Matrix Composites Committee and non-metal additive manufacturing, which are developed by the SAE AMS-AM Nonmetals Committee.
鈥淣CAMP鈥檚 continued partnership with SAE will benefit industry users by providing multiple options for specifications, all linked to a public NCAMP material property qualification database鈥�, said John Tomblin, NCAMP director and 萝莉社 vice president for research and technology transfer. 鈥淏y continuing to implement the model set in place with composites in 2010, NCAMP databases will benefit industry worldwide as both the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) accept the values developed through the NCAMP process.鈥�
FAA Policy Memo AIR100-2010-120-003, Acceptance of Composite Specifications and Design Values Developed, which recognizes the NCAMP Process, identified NCAMP鈥檚 intention to work closely with SAE International to convert NCAMP specifications to SAE AMS specifications. One outcome of the MOU will enable the aerospace industry to utilize either NCAMP Material Specifications or SAE Aerospace Material Specifications, depending upon which specification meet their needs.
SAE International鈥檚 Aerospace Standards repository includes nearly 8,500 documents. Its 350 committees are comprised of 10,000 experts from 56 countries. They represent industry (airframers, suppliers, operators, MROs), regulatory authorities, military agencies, researchers, and consultants. Document development serves the full spectrum of aerospace businesses in both the commercial and military sectors thereby meeting the engineering, advanced technology, safety, regulatory, and defense needs of a world market.
SAE International is a global association committed to advancing mobility knowledge and solutions for the benefit of humanity. By engaging nearly 200,000 engineers, technical experts and volunteers, we connect and educate mobility professionals to enable safe, clean, and accessible mobility solutions. We act on two priorities: encouraging a lifetime of learning for mobility engineering professionals and setting the standards for industry engineering. We strive for a better world through the work of our philanthropic SAE Foundation, including programs like A World in Motion庐 and the Collegiate Design Series鈩�.
NCAMP works with the FAA, as well as other government and industry partners to qualify advanced material systems and populate a shared materials database that can be viewed publicly. NCAMP provides the nation鈥檚 commercial and military aviation industry with a center for the validation and quality assurance of composites and advanced materials through data-sharing among multiple users, statistical continuity and reduced testing. NCAMP works closely with the Composite Materials Handbook-17 (CMH-17) to approve advanced material specification and design values. NCAMP is part of the National Institute for Aviation Research at 萝莉社and stemmed from NASA's Advanced General Aviation Transport Experiment (AGATE).
