14.00    Introduction from BPF and Composites UK

14.10    Making the Move to Aerospace Thermoplastics, a Thermoset Manufacturers Perspective.
             Brian Hynes, Teledyne CML Composites

14.25    Enhanced Characterisation and Simulation Methods for Thermoplastic Overmoulding – ENACT
              Andrew Parsons, CIMCOMP, University of Nottingham

• Deepening the understanding of the anisotropic material properties that are induced by the process,
  to positively influence the performance of the final component.

14.40   Induction Heating of Thermoplastic Composites to address Assembly Challenges
             Arnaud Dereims, ESI UK

• Developing a modelling tool for induction heating of composites allowing process designers
  to assess the thermal field induced by the coil.

14.55    Stick or Twist - The Science of Removing Parts from Tooling
             Chris Howell, Newcastle University

15.10   Automated Preforming with Thermoplastic UD tapes
            Mark Muilwijk, Airborne

• Automating the production of UD tape based preform

15.25   Induction Melt Thermoforming of Multi-Axial Thermoplastic Composite Laminates
            Iain Campbell, University of Glasgow
