About Robert White
So, a little detour for the last 11 months ... into the "old" world of Fiber-Metal-Fiber Laminates, with the goal of reducing Carbon Fiber Content, maintaining CF/E equivalency for Strength/Stiffness while reducing cost and improving damping with relation to a CF/E monolithic laminate. Prelim ILSS came in at ~ 52MPa and NO exotic Surface prep on the metal .... Ha!So “Hot Section” applications appear to be the current technical “high bar” for composites. Replacing high temperature metals (~1050c) with molded, lightweight, and DAMTOL Laminated Structures has been my focus for the last few years. GFP (Gas Flow Path) geometry has become realizable with both hand and automated layup technologies, particularly with inorganic matrices. STC/OEM replacement approval will be helped with the projected increased Life Cycle Cost savings.Design by analysis or at the least with justification, has been my mantra for the last 3 decades. Computational power has never been more accessible and useful in conceptual layout of a composite structure. Unfortunately material data availability has not kept pace and we constantly need to correlate to the as-built laminate scheme and still apply processing variances. So until we can access an AGATE like database for out-of-clave processes we are forced to adhere to the building block approach for structural integrity correlation to simulations ... (sigh)
Listed skills include Product Design, Catia, Concept Development, Gd&T, and 23 others.

Composite Structures Designer/Analyst
aeros.designThis is the Aero Domain Segment of my freelance work. All studies were defined within the framework of 14CFR23/25/27/29 and their international equivalents. My primary goal was to illustrate promising technologies related to Compound Rotorcraft with Reaction Driven Main Rotors. Of particular interest is the possibility of incorporating Fredrik Ljungström's Radial Turbine into the Rotor Hub as a structural member ... thought provoking stuff? ....- Conceptual Study: Design/Analysis (CAD/CFD): UM250A00 Full Composite UAV airframe (250kg MTOW)- Conceptual Study: Design/Analysis (FEA/CFD): HS325 Full Composite Airframe (3250kg MTOW), Reaction Drive Rotor System, Contra-Rotating Profpan (CRP) (SR-7) Propulsion.- Conceptual Study: Design/Analysis (FEA/CFD): HS625 Full Composite Airframe (6250kg MTOW), Reaction Drive Rotor System, Contra-Rotating Profane (CRP) (SR-7) Propulsion.- Conceptual Study: Design/Analysis (FEA/CFD): UWB-35 (70t MTOW) Full composite Ultra Wide Body Airframe, Reaction Drive Rotor System, Contra-Rotating Profpans (CRP).- MRB composite structures representative for a GA (2 seat) aircraft to obtain it's PC (Production Certificate)NOTE:All images/designs in this section are my IP and personal property except where noted.
Composite Structures Designer/Analyst
terras.designThis segment of my freelance work is devoted to ground based articles/equipment. Specifically vehicles requiring domain conformity to NCAP/EuroNCAP (FMVSS/CMVSS) regulations. I am currently working with a young designer in the Mumbai area, as he appears to have a much better handle on what appeals to the younger generation than myself. His name is Sasank Gopinathan and all of the terras designs originate from him. I just help to ensure the design can be built and is crashworthy.- Conceptual Study: Structural Design/Analysis (FEA) - TFM750-UT 750kg (GVW) ePower Cargo Mini-Truck - NCAP Class- Conceptual Study: Structural Design/Analysis (FEA) - TFM750-LS 750kg (GVW) ePower Micro Car - NCAP Class - Proposal: Design/Analysis (FEA) - 4m Diameter/1500kg (7DOF) Diameter Driving Simulator Dome.Conceptual Study: Design/Analysis (FEA) - 600kg Composite Wheel Rim Assy for a 375t Ultra Class Mining Truck- Conceptual Study: Design/Analysis (FEA) - 3750kg Composite Frame Assy for a 375t Ultra Class Mining Truck- Conceptual Study: Design/Analysis (FEA) - Composite Lift Beams for Telescopic Mobile Cranes (1-50t/50-10m)NOTE:All images/designs in this section are my IP and personal property except where noted
