Composites manufacturing involves many sources of uncertainty associated with material
properties variation and boundary conditions variability. In this study, experimental and …

Cost effective manufacturing of high performance polymer matrix composite structures is an
important consideration for the growth of its use. Resin transfer moulding (RTM) and vacuum …

Considering the low specific capacitance of structural solid supercapacitors, which is due to
the low ion diffusivity in solid electrolytes and the small specific surface area of some …

Experimental investigations were conducted to assess the influence of abrasive water jet
machining (AWJM) process parameters on surface roughness (Ra) of glass fibre reinforced …

The nesting of reinforcements in textile laminates is studied using a 3D geometrical model of
a woven, braided and non-crimp stitched fabrics in the relaxed and sheared state. The …

A comprehensive review of experimental and analytical studies since 1990 on the variability
of permeability induced by fibrous media (reinforcement) distortions across the composite …

In a previous paper the authors studied the elastic deformation during the compaction of a
single-layer woven-fabric preform in liquid-composite molding (LCM) processes. This paper …

A theoretical study of elastic deformation during the compaction of woven-fabric preforms in
liquid composite molding processes is presented in this paper. The analysis focuses on the …

Experimental and theoretical studies have been conducted on the compaction behavior of
fabric preforms in the resin transfer molding process. Compaction experiments were carried …

Here we present the first real-time three dimensional (3D) observations of damage evolution
in a carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite tube under torsion. An in-situ torsion …
