Weft Yarn Interlacement Modelling for 3D Profiled Structures (2021)
Journal Article
Spackman, G., Brown, L., & Turner, T. (2022). Weft Yarn Interlacement Modelling for 3D Profiled Structures. Applied Composite Materials, 29(1), 219-227. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10443-021-09978-9

Currently, generation of 3D woven T-joint models with complex weave geometries, using TexGen software, is a manual process. One of the main challenges to automatic generation of these textiles is the order in which the weft yarns interlace within the...

An updated simulation framework for the prediction of process induced shape distortion in thermoset composites (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Traiforos, N., Turner, T., Runeberg, P., Fernass, D., Chronopoulos, D., Glock, F., & Schuhmacher, G. (2021). An updated simulation framework for the prediction of process induced shape distortion in thermoset composites. In 8th ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on the Mechanical Response of Composites: COMPOSITES 2021

A significant problem encountered during the manufacturing process of thermoset composite structures is the distortion of their shape from their CAD-nominal geometry. Shape distortions can be attributed to the residual stresses which are imposed with...

A simulation framework for predicting process-induced distortions for precise manufacturing of aerospace thermoset composites (2021)
Journal Article
Traiforos, N., Turner, T., Runeberg, P., Fernass, D., Chronopoulos, D., Glock, F., …Hartung, D. (2021). A simulation framework for predicting process-induced distortions for precise manufacturing of aerospace thermoset composites. Composite Structures, 275, 114465. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2021.114465

The choice of a suitable material model to simulate process induced distortions is important in order to achieve a right first time approach in the design of new moulds. This work investigates the ability of the Cure Hardening Instantaneously Linear...
