Optimisation of local in-plane constraining forces in double diaphragm forming (2018)
Journal Article
Chen, S., McGregor, O. P., Harper, L. T., Endruweit, A., & Warrior, N. A. (2018). Optimisation of local in-plane constraining forces in double diaphragm forming. Composite Structures, 201, 570-581. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2018.06.062

© 2018 Elsevier Ltd Rigid blocks (risers) were introduced in the double diaphragm forming (DDF) process to change the local in-plane strain distribution in the diaphragms, aimed at reducing wrinkling defects in the production of fabric preforms. A tw... Read More about Optimisation of local in-plane constraining forces in double diaphragm forming.

Simulating damage onset and evolution in fully bio-resorbable composite under three-point bending (2018)
Journal Article
Gao, X., Chen, M., Yang, X., Harper, L., Ahmed, I., & Lu, J. (2018). Simulating damage onset and evolution in fully bio-resorbable composite under three-point bending. Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 81, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmbbm.2018.02.022

This paper presents a strain-based damage model to predict the stress-strain relationship and investigate the damage onset and evolution of the fibre and matrix of a fully bio-resorbable phosphate glass fibre reinforced composite under three-point be...
