Exciting news!?ICMD??is expanding its capabilities with the upcoming launch of the?Fatigue Toolkit, a cutting-edge solution designed to revolutionize fatigue life prediction. This powerful new tool will provide engineers and materials scientists with unprecedented insights into fatigue performance, reducing costs, improving safety, and accelerating product development. This proven approach to modeling minimum fatigue life can be combined with limited testing using the Accelerated Insertion of Materials (AIM) methodology on?ICMD??to save 70% in testing costs vs a traditional full?design of experiments approaches for qualification of fatigue critical materials. Industry Applications ICMD?’s Fatigue Toolkit has already demonstrated success in industry engagements, helping companies optimize material selection, enhance supplier qualification requirements, and accelerate certification processes. ?? Material Selection Trade Studies?– Used in aerospace applications to evaluate high-cycle fatigue performance of various competing alloys, enabling physics-informed material selection. ?? Supplier Qualification Optimization?– Helps OEMs define more precise qualification requirements by considering microstructural influences on fatigue performance, reducing variability across material suppliers and improving supply chain resilience. ?? Accelerated Qualification for Additive Manufacturing?– Applied in collaboration with the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to streamline the qualification of additively manufactured materials, significantly reducing required experiments (shortening timelines from years to months) and cutting qualification costs by up to $2 million Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gUEZ_Ux3
