1. Vacuum infusion of polymer composites
Abstract : The current trend towards an increased use of vacuum infusion for manufacturing of high performance fibre reinforced polymer composites has stressed the necessity of an advanced modelling of the process. Until recent years development in this area has mainly been based on trial and error and the behaviour of the method is therefore not fully understood. READ MORE

2. Process modeling of liquid composite molding processes
Abstract : The polymer matrix composites (PMCs) are carving out a niche amid the keen market competition to replace the other material counterparts, e.g., metals. Due to the low weight and the corrosion resistance, the PMCs are wildly utilized from aerospace to automobile industries, both in the sectors of civilian and defense. READ MORE

3. Visualisation of composites manufacturing
Abstract : The five papers in this thesis demonstrate five unique ways to monitor composite manufacturing. They also clarify several phenomena that take place during composite manufacturing. Of particular interest are two manufacturing methods, namely vacuum infusion (Paper A-D) and compression moulding of SMC (Paper E). READ MORE

4. Process Modeling of Composite Manufacturing
Abstract : The focus of this research thesis is toward developing a framework for holistic modeling of composites manufacturing of fiber reinforced structural composites. The processes that have been considered are Liquid Composite Molding (LCM) and Out Of Autoclave (OOA) processes, ranging from Liquid Resin Infusion (LRI) and Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) in LCM processes, to Vacuum Bag Only (VBO) and Evac prepregs in OOA processes.

5. Stiffness characterization in Non-Crimp Fabric Composites
Abstract : Lightweight materials with high stiffness and damage tolerance are requested for aerospace, marine and automotive industries. Many types of composite materials are today used in various types of load carrying structures, due to their excellent strength and stiffness to weight ratio. READ MORE
