Welding thick parts efficiently and effectively is a huge challenge in heavy industry. The extra steps that manufacturers need to take to ensure quality can be costly and time-consuming – not to mention the possibility of introducing other problems like distortion and waste. EWI has developed and tested several new methods that are now being...

EWI is pleased to welcome aerospace company Vast Space, LLC, to its membership base. The company, based in Long Beach, California, aims to develop the world's first artificial gravity space stations.

EWI uses integrated computational materials engineering (ICME) methods to analyze correlations between processing conditions, thermal response, microstructures, and mechanical properties to predict performance in joining and additive manufacturing. The resulting information is used to create unique tools for modeling and simulation with the potential to deliver huge time and cost savings to manufacturers. EWI Senior...
