The survey aims to improve both the quality of industrial applications of finite element technology and the level of confidence that can be placed in the computed results. For example, high performance composite materials have been in use for 20 years in the Aerospace industry. The stiffness of carbon fibre reinforced plastics is unmatched by any metal, and most agile and high speed military aircraft could not have met their specification without using it. The use of composite structures represents a challenge to the designers and the finite element community because their strengths and failure modes are not as easy to predict as in metals.
