The unique sensing features of the tilted Fibre Bragg Grating (TFBG) as a single three-parameter optical sensor are demonstrated in this work, to monitor the manufacturing process of composite materials produced using Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Moulding (VARTM) process. Ea ...
The paper tackles the multi-objective optimisation of the cure stage of the Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Moulding (VARTM) process to manufacture the root insert of wind turbine blades. The aim of the study is to compare the Pareto front obtained from a pure heat transfer ana ...
The paper deals with the influence of the convection coefficient and laminate thickness on multi-objective optimisation of the vacuum assisted resin transfer moulding cure stage for the manufacturing of wind turbine com ...
The impetus for higher performance, robustness and efficiency in the aerospace, automotive and energy industries has been reflected in more stringent requirements which the composite manufacturing industry needs to comply with. The process design challenges associated with thi ...
A stochastic multi-objective cure optimisation methodology is developed in this work and applied to the case of thick epoxy/carbon fibre laminates. The methodology takes into account the uncertainty in process parameters and boundary conditions and minimises the mean values an ...
