A reference specimen for compaction tests of fiber reinforcements (2019)
Journal Article
May, D., Kühn, F., Etchells, M., Fauster, E., Endruweit, A., & Lira, C. (2019). A reference specimen for compaction tests of fiber reinforcements. Advanced Manufacturing: Polymer & Composites Science, 5(4), 230-233. https://doi.org/10.1080/20550340.2019.1701826

Compaction behavior of textiles has a major influence on the outcome of various manufacturing processes for fiber reinforced polymer composites. Nevertheless, no standard exists up to date which specifies test methods or test rigs. A recent internati... Read More about A reference specimen for compaction tests of fiber reinforcements.

A novel criterion for the prediction of meso-scale defects in textile preforming (2019)
Journal Article
Matveev, M. Y., Endruweit, A., De Focatiis, D. S., Long, A. C., & Warrior, N. A. (2019). A novel criterion for the prediction of meso-scale defects in textile preforming. Composite Structures, 226, Article 111263. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2019.111263

© 2019 The Authors In numerical simulations of reinforcement preforming, fabrics are often modelled using continuum approaches with homogenised material properties in order to reduce the computational costs. To predict the occurrence of meso-scale de... Read More about A novel criterion for the prediction of meso-scale defects in textile preforming.
