Book Description
In this work, initially, the requirements on a simulation model of the non-isothermal stamp forming process of unidirectional fiber-reinforced, and thermoplastic tape laminates are investigated experimentally. On this basis, different isothermal as well as a fully coupled thermomechanical simulation model under consideration of the crystallization kinetics are developed. For validation, a complex shaped geometry is simulated and compared to experimental forming results.

Process simulation of wet compression moulding for continuous fibre-reinforced polymers
Author: Poppe, Christian Timo
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731511908
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
Interdisciplinary development approaches for system-efficient lightweight design unite a comprehensive understanding of materials, processes and methods. This applies particularly to continuous fibre-reinforced plastics (CoFRPs), which offer high weight-specific material properties and enable load path-optimised designs. This thesis is dedicated to understanding and modelling Wet Compression Moulding (WCM) to facilitate large-volume production of CoFRP structural components.

Fiber-dependent injection molding simulation of discontinuous reinforced polymers
Author: Wittemann, Florian
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731512173
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
This work presents novel simulation techniques for injection molding of fiber reinforced polymers. These include approaches for anisotropic flow modeling, hydrodynamic forces from fluid on fibers, contact forces between fibers, a novel fiber breakage modeling approach and anisotropic warpage analysis. Due to the coupling of fiber breakage and anisotropic flow modeling, the fiber breakage directly influences the modeled cavity pressure, which is validated with experimental data.

Mesoscale simulation of the mold filling process of Sheet Molding Compound
Author: Meyer, Nils
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731511738
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Sheet Molding Compounds (SMC) are discontinuous fiber reinforced composites that are widely applied due to their ability to realize composite parts with long fibers at low cost. A novel Direct Bundle Simulation (DBS) method is proposed in this work to enable a direct simulation at component scale utilizing the observation that fiber bundles often remain in a bundled configuration during SMC compression molding.

Experimental investigation and process simulation of the compression molding process of Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) with local reinforcements
Author: Hohberg, Martin
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731510073
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
In this book, a new three-dimensional approach for the process simulation of SMC is developed. This approach takes into account both, the core layer that is dominated by the extensional viscosity and the thin lubrication layer. In order to transfer the information from the process to the structure simulation, a CAE chain is further developed. In addition, a new rheological tool is developed to analyze flow behavior experimentally and to provide the required material parameters.

Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731510057
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
A weave reinforced composite material with a thermoplastic matrix is investigated by using a multiscale chain to predict the macroscopic material behavior. A large-strain framework for constitutive modeling with focus on material non-linearities, i.e. plasticity and damage is defined. The ability of the geometric and constitutive models to predict the deformation and failure behavior is demonstrated by means of selected examples.

Pages : 294
Book Description
Fiber-reinforced materials offer a huge potential for lightweight design of load-bearing structures. However, high-volume production of such parts is still a challenge in terms of cost efficiency and competitiveness. Numerical process simulation can be used to analyze underlying mechanisms and to find a suitable process design. In this study, the curing process of the resin is investigated with regard to its influence on RTM mold filling and process-induced distortion.
