Material extrusion additive manufacturing of continuous fibre reinforced polymer matrix composites: A review and outlook (2021)
Journal Article
Zhuo, P., Li, S., Ashcroft, I. A., & Jones, A. I. (2021). Material extrusion additive manufacturing of continuous fibre reinforced polymer matrix composites: A review and outlook. Composites Part B: Engineering, 224, Article 109143. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compositesb.2021.109143

In recent years, three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology has developed to include composite materials. Most of the development to date in this area has involved particulate or short fibre reinforced composites, whilst continuous fibre printing re...

The paper presents experimental characterization and theoretical predictions of elastic and failure properties of continuous carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide (C/C-SiC) composite fabricated by Liquid Silicon Infiltration (LSI). Its mechanical p... Read More about Experimental evaluation and theoretical prediction of elastic properties and failure of C/C‐SiC composite.

Parametric sizing study for the design of a lightweight composite railway axle (2021)
Journal Article
Mistry, P. J., Johnson, M. S., Li, S., Bruni, S., & Bernasconi, A. (2021). Parametric sizing study for the design of a lightweight composite railway axle. Composite Structures, Article 113851. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2021.113851

The potential for lightweighting of railway axles was investigated to primarily reduce the unsprung mass of a rail vehicle. The reduction of unsprung mass equates to an overall lighter train which will help to reduce track damage, energy consumption...

On the objectivity of the nonlinear along-fibre shear stress–strain relationship for unidirectionally fibre-reinforced composites (2021)
Journal Article
Li, S., Xu, M., Yan, S., & Sitnikova, E. (2021). On the objectivity of the nonlinear along-fibre shear stress–strain relationship for unidirectionally fibre-reinforced composites. Journal of Engineering Mathematics, 127(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10665-021-10098-3

The nonlinear along-fibre shear stress–strain relationship for unidirectionally fibre-reinforced composites has been investigated in this paper aiming at its applications in general 3D stress conditions in a consistent manner. So far, such relationsh... Read More about On the objectivity of the nonlinear along-fibre shear stress–strain relationship for unidirectionally fibre-reinforced composites.
