In-situ measurement and numerical simulation of resin pressure during Glass/Epoxy prepreg composite manufacturing (2016)
Journal Article
Ammasai Sengodan, G., Maheshwari, M., Joshi, S., Chen, Z., Asundi, A., & Tjin, S. (2016). In-situ measurement and numerical simulation of resin pressure during Glass/Epoxy prepreg composite manufacturing. Measurement, 94, 505-514. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.measurement.2016.08.028

Resin pressure distribution of a curing Glass/Epoxy prepreg lay-up is the key parameter that controls the strength, stiffness and void nucleation of the cured composite part. It is vital to monitor and control the resin movement of curing laminate to...

Flow-compacted deformations coupled with thermo-chemically induced distortions in manufacturing of thick unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced plastics composites (2016)
Journal Article
Ammasai Sengodan, G., Joshi, S., & Chen, Z. (2016). Flow-compacted deformations coupled with thermo-chemically induced distortions in manufacturing of thick unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced plastics composites. Journal of Composite Materials, 50(24), https://doi.org/10.1177/0021998315618455

A novel technique to predict the manufacturing process-induced distortions and deformations in thick unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced plastics laminates is detailed in this article. An integrated numerical model is developed to account for non-...

Aerogel core CFRP curved sandwich composites with variable cross-section without ply-drop for body protection and rehabilitation (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Ammasai Sengodan, G., & Joshi, S. (2016, May). Aerogel core CFRP curved sandwich composites with variable cross-section without ply-drop for body protection and rehabilitation. Presented at SAMPE Long Beach 2016 Conference and Exhibition, Long Beach, United States

A novel method to design and manufacture aerogel core (patented technology) CFRP sandwich composites with variable geometry and mechanical properties without any ply-drop is envisaged, analyzed and demonstrated. Using this method, such composites can... Read More about Aerogel core CFRP curved sandwich composites with variable cross-section without ply-drop for body protection and rehabilitation.
