M4 Engineering, Inc. works with inventors, startups, established companies, and government agencies to solve “unsolvable” problems and move their ideas from concepts to prototypes and beyond. The complex systems typically found in unmanned, electric aircraft, eVTOL, and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), as well as more conventional aircraft and spacecraft, present unique challenges that many new and established companies may not have encountered before. This is where M4 Engineering comes in. We have a broad range of capabilities to complement in-house engineering resources when either specialized knowledge or extra bandwidth is needed. M4 Engineering also has a very strong composite discipline competency that can help you with design, material characterization, analysis, prototyping, and testing, and M4 Phoenix Technology Works (M$ PTW) is AS9100 certified for composite tooling parts, parts, and complete systems and can help you move from small runs to larger-scale production. and has many years of experience supporting unmanned and manned air, land, and sea vehicle development. In addition to engineering services and composite prototyping and manufacturing, M4 is also a Siemens Digital Industries Gold Expert Software reseller and offers a broad array of software to help you design, analyze, and manufacture your products. We have many expert users of the various software that provide training, mentoring, and tech support to help you succeed in implementing these tools at your organization. M4 has been working with NASA and other government agencies over the last 15 years in developing tools to better assist in the design of AAM, UAV, and other unconventional aircraft and spacecraft using our expertise in multidisciplinary design analysis and optimization (MDAO) to support our customers. These tools can help you save time and reduce the costs associated with the design, analysis, optimization, and manufacturing of high-performance systems and structures. Please call or email us today to see how we might be able to help you accomplish your goals +1 (562) 981-7797 or info@m4-engineering.com, www.m4-engineering.com. | M4 Engineering helps solve the challenges that arise in developing new types of manned and unmanned space and flight vehicles. From conceptual design, weight prediction and pre-PDR work through analysis, multi-disciplinary design analysis and optimization (MDAO), test, fabrication and certification we help fill the gaps needed for a successful program.
HyperX – Collier Aerospace
Collier Aerospace’s flagship product, HyperX software, performs design, stress analysis, and detail sizing optimization for aircraft and space launch vehicles fabricated with composite or traditional metal materials. On average, HyperX reduces the weight of structures by 20%, an exceptional achievement for aerostructures. HyperX very rapidly explores an open design space providing insightful design study trends. On the analysis and certification side, HyperX replaces the need for spreadsheets and “hand calculations” with automatically generated stress reports for FAA certification. HyperX customers are able to produce results faster and more accurately, giving them an edge over competitors. HyperX software is a companion to your finite element solver for performing rapid closed form and detailed stress analysis for hundreds of analytical failure methods to thousands of FEA load cases. Using these analyses, HyperX performs sizing optimization to determine the lightest weight combination of material systems and panel cross-sectional dimensions (height, stiffener spacing) including layup ply angles and stacking sequences.
