NEW NDI FRONTIER FOR QI COMPOSITES – OCTOBER NEWSLETTER

New NDI frontiers for foils inspection at QI Composites
Even if the hydrofoil technique has been known for over 70 years, it is only with the recent editions of the America’s Cup and Vendee Globe that research and engineering experimentation are growing really fast. Carbon fiber materials enable to produce resistant and very light wing foils producing a vertical thrust lifting the boat from the water. Boats can get a significant increase in speed (up to three times the one of wind) drastically reducing the hydrodynamic drag. Thanks to the use of composite materials it’s possible to maximize weight containment and optimize …
