- A review on the mechanical behaviour of curvilinear fibre composite laminated panels (2014, background): “This technology opened the door to an enlarged design space, with respect to the traditional straight-fibre reinforced composites, offering new possibilities for weight reduction and better performance, which is particularly important in means of transport.(57) The application of this technology to ”
- Advanced robotics and additive manufacturing of composites: towards a new era in Industry 4.0 (2021, background): “In general, dry fiber or tow placement can provide significant cost reduction, provide an unlimited shelf life of the raw materials, and the preforms can reduce material handling problems compared to the traditional prepreg systems.([126,205]) One of the most important parameters to influence the pe”
- Voids in fiber-reinforced polymer composites: A review on their formation, characteristics, and effects on mechanical performance (2018, methodology): “For thermoplastic prepregs, the application of AFP is more common than ATL.(12) Moreover, automated tow/tape placement (ATP), a technique in which consolidation already happens during the tow/tape placement, is used to lay up thermoplastic prepregs.”
