Composites in wind and tidal power

3 August 2012

The Advanced Composites Centre for Innovation and Science (ACCIS) has a leading reputation in composite rotor blade research. This is directly relevant to the Wind and Tidal Power industries, where composite materials are widely used to meet strength and fatigue life requirements, whilst minimising structural mass.
