X-ray computed tomography scans can provide detailed information about the state of the
material after manufacture and in service. X-ray computed tomography aided engineering …

Mesoscale simulations of woven composites using parameterized analytical geometries
offer a way to connect constituent material properties and their geometric arrangement to …

Short glass fibre injection moulded composites, used in interior and exterior automotive
parts, are exposed to complex stress states, for example during a crash. As the fibre scale …

We investigate the compressive failure mechanisms in flax fiber composites, a promising
eco-friendly alternative to synthetic composite materials, both numerically and …

Among micro-scale imaging technologies of materials, X-ray micro-computed tomography
has evolved as most popular choice, even though it is restricted to limited field-of-views and …

A compressive strength prediction method considering 3D fiber orientation distributions is
developed. The method quantifies volumetric fiber orientations using the structure tensor …

Changes in the fibrous microstructure in glass fiber/epoxy prepreg quasi-isotropic laminates
after the introduction of embedded sensors in the form of “nanostitch” as interleaves are …

Abstract Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) is a manufacturing technique widely used for the
serial production of aerospace parts. A deep understanding of the effect of lay-up defects is …

For fibre-reinforced composites, most of their mechanical properties is tied to the fibre scale.
Thus, imaging-based characterisation demands resolving fibres to characterise these …
