Zeng, X., Long, A. C., Ashcroft, I., & Potluri, P. Fibre architecture design of 3D woven composite with genetic algorithms: a unit cell based optimisation framework and performance assessment. Presented at 20th International Conference on Composite Materials

There are vast possibilities in fibre architecture design of 3D woven reinforcement. This paper considers the application of Genetic Algorithm (GA) in 3D woven composites optimisation. A set of real and integral variables, representing 3D fibre archi...

The creation of an object by selective laser melting (SLM) occurs by melting contiguous areas of a powder bed according to a corresponding digital model. It is therefore clear that the success of this metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology reli...
