This study concentrates on the possibility of forming a complex shape such as a tetrahedron
using two untwisted commercial flax based fabric reinforcements using the sheet forming …

It is an important topic to measure the through-thickness permeability of fiber reinforcements
as the resin flow in the thickness direction is widely employed in many composites …

Keeping in mind the advantages of bio-based materials, this book focuses on the potential
efficacy of different biocomposites procured from diverse natural resources and the …

Forming complex shape composite parts with a good production rate/cost ratio is of
particular importance for the automotive industry. The sheet forming of woven …

We propose a new experimental method using a Hassler cell and air injection to measure
the permeability of fiber preform while avoiding a race tracking effect. This method was …

A new analytical formulation of governing equations for hydro-mechanical coupled problem
during single sided molding processes such as vacuum infusion (VI) is presented in this …

In liquid resin infusion processes, the compression phase and the resin flow are important
stages that influence the quality of the obtained parts. In this study, an experimental device is …

Permeability is a property used to measure how a liquid flows through porous media. This
property defines how a mold is filled in Liquid Composite Molding (LCM). It is important to …

The compaction of composite preforms and the flow of resin through the fibrous network take
place simultaneously during the Resin Film Infusion process. An experimental device, set up …

The aim of this work was to study the compression behavior of a mat reinforcement. The
compaction stages of the dry and wet reinforcement and its relaxation over time as a function …
